Hi all

I've just created a forum for one of my websites about baby and postpartum information, obviously targeted for pregnant women or those with babies or toddlers.

It was only created a few days ago, but because there isn't any registered users or posts apart from my own, will this discourage people from joining?

How can I overcome this and get people to register and post???

Thanks for any advice.

Start few useful thread and ask your few friends to involve there in, later you can target relevant forums/blog/social networking sites to get more members .

Writing articles on women issues and distributing press releases about the opening of your forum can help you get targeted traffic.

One very effective way to get a forum jump started is to purchase software which will populate a new forum using Yahoo Answers...

PM me if you want a link to the software I recommend.
