You need to provide more information...or a more specific question regarding what exactly you want. In the mean time, here are some threads you might want to check out...all in the "Creating Interest" section here at AdminFusion Tips on how to get visitors to your site Staring-Off tips Creating A Successful Forum How do i get targeted members?

But - you cant pick one or the other...both are necessary

| Your are right, design does matter. I guess sometimes I overlook some designs on forums, if they have the content I am going to stay and read, possibly join. | ||||
