Getting Members Addicted and Active on your forum
Another great post by Martin. Some of the best points are:
Keep the community visible.
This applies to Lefora groups especially. Making your group private only closes it off from people discovering it and from Google indexing the posts and threads you and your members create. Keep it as open as possible.
Invite new members to get involved
Send private messages to people as they join. Introducing yourself and being friendly often time is enough to spark interest in your group.
The others he describes perfectly so no need for me to reiterate. Most importantly I feel that being open and helping your members will result in a great community in the long run.
