I didn't say I was an expert :) Thanks for the feedback.

Well, I'm just speaking from my own perspective whether it would be worthwhile. I just crossed 25k today and started in March this year, so it wouldn't be for me, but I bet (assuming it is replicable) others would be interested. Good luck! :)

When I first started my board, I was on there every day making up 4 or 5 questions and then I would answer them myself as other user(s). Is this cheating? Not really. You need good content - and if you ask good questions and provide good answers, believe me, people will be interested.

And if your site looks like a graveyard, no one is going to visit or post. Think of it this way, discussion boards are all about communication, and if you feel like you are talking to yourself, it is NOT motivational.

There's no secret. You need recent posts and good info and lots of users. If it takes a little acting to get it going, no one will be the wiser and your readers will get good info and mkae new friends!
