Free Promotion Methods of a new Forum

[batman]

The most effective free promotion methods which I have been using for years are twitter and forum marketing. Twitter is a very large space to find your targeted users. Just get some people in your niche to follow you and retweet & #tag them to build a relation. And they will return the favor. Its also same in the case of forum marketing. Help other people in other forums in your niche and they will follow you back to your forum through your signature link.
