The best way to do that is leave a link at a high traffic site and youll get a much better result than submitting it. |

http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurlAlso there are some free sites which allow you to add your site and they will submit for free for you. It will take a lot longer when free. |

you can add your forum link to your siggy if you are on another forum also, but please ask the admins of that board if you are allowed.
also if you find a forum that is similair ask the admin if the 2 of you can swap info and give credit to each others sites.
Add you forum URL to your siggy in email

Another good one i have found is banner exchange sites. It has brought 30 people to my forum in 2 days. Works really well. Submitting to google won't work too good. You'll rank at the bottom and no one will find your site.

I have one. If you have a flash you made, add a link to it leading to your forum. Submit it to Newgrounds. Once people start to view it, your forum will get lots of people. You have to have a Grounds Gold account to do it.

It is good to advertise a forum - on forums. I found this one on FREEWEBSPACE.net/forums
It is good if you can offer something what someone needs, want - you post in threads related to your forum content - you can put your link in the post as long it is not obvious that you're talking about your own site.
Putting link in a sig only is so-so: I've put a banner of an attracting,paying gpt forum under 10.000 posts in getpaidforum - and maybe 2 people signuped.
I was also attracted with - posting contests - top 10 posters/week get $3...and then I stood there even after they stopped paying.

Well, I'm no expert. Just taking a guess at it.
It is possible...however I couldn't be just any random person.
Maybe you didn't drop in popularity...the others rose? I really dunno...
