HOLY mullet!!!!!!!!! The On friday i saw my forum was slowly dying, and I was getting worried, So i decided to advertise it a bit, I guess i convinced a few very good members to join, Becuase well i got like 5 people to join, but then like all five of those people pmed me and said hmm this place is kinda of dead, I'm gonna advertise it for you, NOW we have likw 30 more members!! yes 30, and the totall post count went from 1500 to 2000 in two days!!! thats insnae, Right now my forum has a total of 60 members, and we are growin like CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot belive it, I was patient, and stuff and now it's all paying off soo much. WOW it's just a matter of convincing a couple helpful and good members to join, Some forums get those really helpful people to join right away, other never find that person, and never really have a huge growth spurt, and well some find those couple people eventually, On top of the fact these members got tons of people to join, they are like the most active people in the world it's almost too good to be true. *wakes up* #### IT WAS JUST A DREAM!!!! lol

See, when you hear mentions of "Patience," and "Persistance," thrown around, you are actually hearing good advice. Sticking with your forum can have great results, as demonstrated by this thread. And congrats to you, MAXPOWER99.

Well since my forum is a nintendo forum I went to the Nintendo offical forum and pmed the people that seemed the most active there, So also when advertising i found it's good to advertis to people who seem active. |

Congrats. I got over 100 members in 3 weeks.. soo im guessing a another 100 in the next few. Tips to Advertise:[/u] Signature: - Have a colorful signature matching your boards skin. Be sure to have it stand out the most. - Have a Slogan or similar at the bottom. Affiliate: - Affiliate with everyone you can. I recommend an affiliate box with your code and affiliate image on it so everyone can see it. - Buy with google.com/ca/ an advertising link. Whenever you search a word/phrase similar to your board, it will appear. Other: - Come to my board and advertise on my forum reviews ![]() - A forum review place is good, it helps on your next steps, it is really helpful in away that it can upgrade your forum to the next level. I suggest a forum review in large forums if there is any. - Be sure to follow the reviewers tips. Do Not GET upset or angry at them. But thats just me, thats what I follow.. Pulse

It helps if the reviewers aren't illiterate and don't sound like they're pulling their comments out of their butts and don't have examples or specific comments (i.e., saying your skin sucks, but they don't give you any ways to improve your skin). But anyway! lol Congrats Maxpower! |

its good when things like that happen huh... that happened to my forum but its suddenly gone dead again and mainly only the admins, mods and elite members that are still active best tip is to keep advertising and offer something good to your members to encorage them to join like free elite membership or something but dont do that and say next person who joins is a admin because thats just dumb |
