How does one keep site active?

Post below!

One way to make it active is to post your ideas and etc.

Buying stickies to large forums, buying advertisement banners, a unique niche, a great theme, etc.

All that good shit.

There needs to be activity already established and there needs to be new people visiting the site. We're doing a good job at the moment.

Make your forum unique; host contests; reward members for their efforts; SEO; constantly advertise; and hand out awards to those who refer their friends to join the forum.

You should take those factors into consideration. The more benefits you have on your forum, the better. This can include custom plugins and a custom theme.

Yeah, that's going to help a whole lot. :p

Getting your friends to kick-start your forum is another factor.
More or less what Uzi said.

[Exiled]

Get good content on your site. Be an good admin and make your members happy as much as possible.
And also all the above posts count too.

Yes, like KRAYZI said content is always the biggest priority inside of a forum so other members can post
