Pay... Google Adwords works. That is about the only way. You can't really do free advertisement. I spammed a few places, still do every now and then. But it doesn't really help in getting active members. So yea, pay for advertisement... that is about it.

Word of mouth works pretty well, or just get ad space on a big website.

<a href="http://dmoz.org" target="_blank">http://dmoz.org</a> >> Submit new URL !!!

if you don't submit your site to search engines, you will never be found!

i always submit the boards i create on dmoz.org... 2 weeks after, they are always visited by a lot of web spiders, not only google... so the more the merrier...

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
