1.  You are allowed to Advertise your forum here at Support ONE time in the Advertisement Board.
     You are not allowed to bump the topic;   replys are not allowed to it.
     Advertisement Board Rules
     We do frown upon asking around the forum in threads to get people to join.

2.  If I had a dollar for every person who has asked me to join their forums I would be rich.   
     Sorry,  I honestly do not have the time.

Go to areas where people may be of interest in your forums.
Try going to http://www.xat.com and promote it that way through a chat.
If you sound convincing, you'll have a decent crowd in no time ;)

Submit to Search Engines:
http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl
http://search.yahoo.com/info/submit.html
http://search.msn.com/docs/submit.aspx
       

How much do those ACTUALLY help?

By submitting your site to search engines, they send bots to your site. Where they basically crawl your site and learn all the public info about it. It than adds it to it search. lets say your site was ikevin.smfforfree.com , and you had some cool water guns for sale. well if you submitted your site to google and their bot picked that up, it can be found in a google search like "Kevin's Water Guns" or something :P.

One thing I don't recommend that anyone tries is posting a link on a site such as facebook. I foolishly decided to try this and the result was over three hours of deleting abusive posts and the posters accounts were banned.  >:(
On the whole this was a pointless excersise that cost me dearly, too.
