The first 100 is generally the hardest to get.
- Get some of your friends to post on your forum so it isn't inactive.
- Post some discussion generating topics that entice people to come out of the wood work.
- Some admins like to create fake user accounts to make it look like the forum is rather active.. however I personally highly dislike this practice.
- Advertise your site via your signature in the various forums you visit.
- Set up a newsletter and periodically send it out to your members.
