Is it an okay progress, for a new forum, which absoloutely no connections at all, only a few friends, to have 100 members, and 1.100 posts after a month?

It's not all of them that are active, though.

I want to know, if I need to get my crap together.
You can be doing a lot better. The only way to see overnight activity is if you have something incredibly unique or something people want. You simply have a nice dubstep forum.

Only solution besides crazy advertising (which you should be doing) is waiting. About 80% of dubstep communities will be gone with in the year. Stay in that 20% and people will come to you.
Thanks for your comment.

I've been doing advertising at different kind of forums, but I don't wanna spend a huge amount of money, on advertising in radio shows etc., before the forum is a little more active.

You don't need to spend much money to advertise.
I am advertising the places where I can, at the moment.
Forums, friends, online friends aswell, sites like postloop, forumpromotion.net etc.
Anything else, you'd recommend?
Hmmm, its an ok figure tbh. A cheap way to boost traffic is to purchase high quality backlinks, or another idea is to maybe setup a blog in the niche and write some articles with links to your forum
Unsure if I've showed you, but have you seen my forum guide? You should check it out.
I'm checking it out now.
Thanks.

I just went through your eBook, and it wasn't really that good.
It was just containing the basics, on how to setup a forum.
Something I teached myself, in a week or so.

The advertising tips is also quite basic, I knew them forehand Tongue.
Thanks anyways.

I figured that. It is for beginners, but I see you know what you're doing because the board does look nice.

There are some tricks mentioned I see you haven't implemented, though.
Which is?
I'm sorry, but I don't have the time, to read it all carefully.

I'm pretty tired, as it's 2:33 am here.
