Getting more forum members with less expense

[riffmaster18]

My anime forum site, www.berserkanime.com, is growing very very rapidly as you can see.
With only 70 members, there have been over 4,500 posts - and the site only began to become active less than one month ago.

So at this rate, I see good things for the future of the site, but in order to get some ad revenue to support my expenses, I'll need more members.

What is the most efficient way to quickly find members? Right now I use PPC, plus one link from another site. And just for fun, I have sent safelist emails.

Suggestions are appreciated.

Links from anime sites with no community.

Advertise, Advertise, Advertise.

It doesnt even have to be paid. In fact, I've never paid for advertising in my life.

Simply by filling in guestbooks, going to other similar communities and 'poaching' members, things like that.

But with the rate you are growing, it doesnt look like you need too much help pulling them in!
