Creating activity in a new forum

[batman]

Creating activity in a new forum isn't a very easy job to do. The thing that worked for me every time is that by launching a competition within my community. As like the top posters will get $100 cash prize. These types of offers may create a huge response but there is also a possibility that many users will just post gibberish to win the prize. So, make sure while announcing your competition that only valued posts will only be counted.
