Amazing By Being

[TheOrlandoGray]

For seven days now I've been developing and improving my forum and not one person has signed up for it yet!  I have had many guest come through for about ten to twenty minutes at a time and then leave. I think they stay to read the comments and then leave.  Can someone check my forum out and tell my why it's so bad.

Hello!

First of all, I want to offer a bit of encouragement. If it's only been seven days since your forum has been opened, it's not likely that you'd have many members. When I started my forum two months ago, no one signed up within the first week except my friends who were helping set it up, and still, only a few other people have joined. Don't give up! Just keep advertising I'm sure people will turn up soon.

Reviewing the forum quickly, I do see a couple grammar and spelling mistakes, which should be fixed to make it look more professional. Your theme looks great, but something I noticed when scrolling through was how long your forum looks. Maybe visitors are a bit intimidated by the size of the forum. Maybe you could decrease the size of the pictures you have down the middle, to make it just slightly shorter? That might help. Also, it seems very inactive, and of course it is, since no one's signed up yet... But maybe if you start a few threads for new members to post in, it will look like somethings actually happening for the members to be a part of.

Hope I helped at least a little Good luck!

It would have helped telling me where I made mistakes . But thanks.   I'll get working on it soon as I get done studying my books.

I can tell you You just need to look a little harder, I guess.

- Under your "Writer's Block" section, the first letter in the quote needs to be capitalized, and it needs punctuation at the end.

-You spelled the title of the "Grammer" section wrong. Probably just a typo, since you have it spelled correctly in the quote directly beneath it

-You also spelled the title of the "Genras" board wrong.

Not much, but some potential members can be nitpicky.

I like the idea. The layout is fine.

The Picture you have in the news category looks a bit odd.Being as it isnt the same size as the other pictures.Maybe resize it or fine another?

I also noticed, from my side anyway, the banner is a bit cut off on the word being.
It takes alot of work and patience to get a forum running.7 days is nothing.
Get affiliates.
Update and keep updating those topics all of them, to get someone to possibly want to join.Hang in there!

Remember: they didn't build Rome in a day!
