I've recently chosen to start to restore and get my site even more active than it has been recently as I feel that it may be dying.

The link to the site is http://freedom-forums.co.uk and the site is a general gaming community complete with a shoutbox, a portal and a number of other things such as user blogs and an arcade coming soon.

I was wondering if anyone has any tips to restore it. Or if anyone has the time and would be interested in joining and helping me get my site back active, in return for me helping your sites out?

Advertising is helping, I'm advertising all I possibly can, but I need help on getting members to carry on porting once they've joined.

Thanks in advance. ~smile~

Hey briggers810
The freedom-forums site looks great but with any forum you need to give them a reason to come back,

Running a competition and mentioning it to all the members will help to stir up some interest on the forum.

What is the gaming site?
If you want, we can help each other out.
I own http://www.polepositiondriver.com/discussion/

I'll help you with the gaming one if you wanna give me a hand?

Thanks
Adrian

Sending a mass email telling everyone the site is back is a must 🙂

also

afiliate with other forums/websites get your name out

enter topsites

and get some packages from various forums

Good Luck on restoring your forum 🙂

Well currently there are a number of gaming contests happening at the moment, and there is also a large amount of content on there. I would be interested in joining your site and helping out in return for you posting on Freedom. I've joined under the username: "Briggers810" 🙂

I've sent out a mass email about all the changes and improvements i've done and got a number of people to login to the site, but hardly any of them posted. I've also been having problems getting an affiliate link for my site fixed so haven't been doing affliates lately. I've been requesting packages on a number of sites. I haven'ty found any topsites that would be of any real use though.
