How to get members for a forum?

Hi
I started a forum on free softwares at imperialpages.com.
But since the start the number of mebers have only been 7 no one has been posting.
How to get active members and how to get more members to a forum?

I am wondering!!!

RE: How to get members for a forum?

Humm.... that is a big problem.

1) If you go on other similar forums and post about your forum then it is against the rules of that forum. So you get banned.

2) If you don't go to similar forums and post uselessly on other kind of forums then no on is interested and so no one registers.

3) If you hire forum posters they just come and boom boom boom posts are finished and your money gone. They also gone. :D

4) If you talk alone to yourself people think the admin is mad.

5) If you target the search engines then they don't rank you well as your forum has less content. And it is due to less threads and posts which is due to less members and the circle completes and you are again at point number 1.

This is also confusing to me. I would also like to hear some opinions.

Spam and spam around other forums. But that gives you bad reputation though.
