Hi guys. I wonder how i can increase user registrations and activity in my forum.

Any ideas and suggestions are welcomed.

Create events.

Any ideas for events?
I know i'm asking too much but a suggestion would be good.

Going to arrange a giveaway, probably tomorrow. Hope that might increase activity a bit.

WOW. In the layout and graphics of the forum, I LOVE IT! Consider what Martin said and continue advertising. It seems like a new forum to me.

Yeah, activity is a bit weak, but I agree with Joel that the layout is great!

Give users a reason to register and a reason to post. That doesn't necessarily mean contest of give aways, but content and discussion.

Hmm. Will do that.

Yeah, its very general advice but its the key to having a successful, and active forum.

Indeed. I had seen many big board owners stating that.

Oh Kavin, you need to advertise.
