My name is John. I'm 13 years old, as of right now.
I like Pokemon, so I have started a Pokemon forum at http://s8.invisionfree.com/Devon_Corporation/! Can you give me ideas on how to get members to my forum? I am not having much luck right now. My screen name at my forum is Devon Corporation USA.
I am interested in freeways and I would like to start a site with pictures of freeways. I like maps, computers, swimming, and drawing.
This is a good site.

Here's some ideas that have worked for us here at WrongPlanet.net (we only launched this last Friday).
- Put meta tags in the headers and optimize for search engines.
- Use a submission tool on the web to submit to search engines
- Send emails to similar sites asking them to link to you. Offer to link to them in return.
- Use existing forums to get visitors to your forum, and be sure to put a link in your signature on those forums.
- Tell a lot of people, and encourage them to tell people.
- For forums, it's best to try to start a few ice breaker topics so that when people come in, they've already got some stuff to respond to and don't have to think up a topic and post it (which they probably wouldn't want to do anyway).
- Join webrings.
That's all I have for now. Hope that helps.[/list]

Thank you for helping me to find ways to get traffic to my forum. I'll try everthing I can to get people to register.
What are some good ice breaker questions?
Also, whats some good keywords and how to do the Meta tags?
Thanks again for your help,
John.

No offense but:
Do you have any forums that don't have anything to do with Pokemon? |

No, I don't. As of now that's all I have. In the future I might be planning something different.

Welcome there
What is a good icebreaker question? Well seing as you will be talking about pokemon, wouldn't a "Which is your favorite and why?" thread be apropriate?
But really, if you have such an interest in pokemon that you started your own forum, you should know better than I what other pokefans like to discuss.
I used to really love pokemon, back when there were only 151 of them... Ninetails is my favorite, Charizard a close second.
Good luck with your forum

There are many places in Internetland with discussions and photos of roads, too. They are well worth digging up.
