Unique ways to keep members visiting?
 
Me and the owner of http://www.techchats.com are trying to think of unique ways to keep members coming back since the first 10,000 posts are the hardest..

Right now i have articles and stuff linking to my websites to gain interest in members.

What we thought of after we get alot of posts:
Custom skin made by a design:
HiveMail / PhotoPost / Ect

So far that is it, but what are some unique things we can do now? Free or cheap things of course. Also, what can we do with the front page? VBHome Lite isn't that great and VBPortal is not made for 2.3.0 (Already tried)

BTW, This is a tech forum, so any ideas for that.

Use all the gimmicks in the world, if you do not do some simple things it does not matter.

I spent about four to five hours a day years ago talking to the members over AIM. All the while posting on the forums, working on this dev or that dev, and just BSing with the members. It takes hours and hours of stroking - thats it.
