Well everyone I’ve done some compiling of lists of great places to drive traffic to your forums. These are all free places to either submit your links, submit your news, submit your site, tag your site, or other mediums to drive traffic to your forums. Now please remember that before you do any of these make sure your forum is ready for visitors and you have enough content / interaction to keep some of this traffic as return visitors and your end goal would be to convert these visitors into active posting members. Also this traffic probably won’t be targetted traffic so don’t get mad when you don’t get a lot of signups. This list is intended to be for “jump starting” traffic flow, and quite possibly boosting your forum to the next level if you have something of quality to offer.

Visit each one of these sites and do what it takes to get your site out. And please remember to not spam any of these sites, submit information that is useful. You might not want to even submit your mainpage url but rather a link inside your forum, or even a link to an article you wrote that has your site link in it. The more creative you get the better your outcome will be.
