We need more members, but how?

We are a bit thin on the ground at the moment

What do you think would be a good way to get more members? Surely there must be loads of ST70 owners out there?!

Tough one...
The right (plenty) of metawords in the website?
Advertising on other forums... Altough stealing members is not the nicest thing to do.
Mention the forum to each and everyone you know.

I have no valuable ideas I'm afraid.

Thanks for the reminder about the META tags. The main site has them but the forum doesn't... I will try and add them in a minute.

Can I ask how you came across the site? Did you find it through a search engine?

The site: yes, through a search engine (google)
The forum: No, through you...
You write this site URL in an e-mail.

Ah ok cool!

Yeah I gave you the forum url through an email.

I have added the meta tags now, hopefully it might make a difference soon

I have just posted the link to the forum on a Facebook ST70 group which has over 500 members. Lets hope some of them come on here and join up

8 members, 5 posters.
Not bad, huh?

Getting there! Most of which are Lady Dax owners!

try linking yourself to bike mag forums
they generally dont mind i imagine youd be full in a week

Looks like the members are not comming along as you would expect.
My suggestions:
1. keep the same domain name
2. Get rid of the Honda ST owners club images/titles etc,, rename the site with new images of other honda minis.
( Your too specific at the moment with only ST70 owners)
This will attract owners with other variants in the the honda family eg: gorrilla , monkey etc. it may not be your goal to have these other bikes on the forum, but sticking with what you have is not working.
