The design has to be appealing, the registration process needs to be fluid and easy, and the content has to be interesting and attractive to its niche audience.

Try and get friends or make a few couple of alternate IDs first to make your forum active with new topics and posts, there are some sites that hire high quality posts for a couple of quid, if you would pay.

Reddit ( probably the most poopular like forum like site right now ) owners said at the start, they also made many accounts with many posts, to get the site off and running, till it got off and running to what it is today

Try to partner with one or two persons to help in your forum. Getting people to help you is very important especially when you feel you are not up to the task or you can't tell a good design from a bad one. With other people helping you, I think you can create something good and nice. Moreover, come to think of one or two people helping to promote your forum and drive traffic to it. You will realise that your forum will get popularity in a short time.

Starting and creating a forum is easy but making it a popular one is quiet a task. Starting from your topic, You can start forums that are related to present events, an exciting one or maybe a really beneficial type. If your forum is contains some ideas that are needed by another people, it will really be popular. People are just interested in things that benefits them, that's why the topic of your forum must be something that will benefit them. Another is to try promoting your forum physically not purely on the internet. You can try to talk to your friends, neighbors, family members, etc., to try participating in your forum. If people have seen that your forum has a good interaction of members, then it will be a good head-start in attracting more people to participate in it.

One of the factors to consider to make your forum popular is its content. It should make sense as writers will follow and shares topics that is making sense as well. We have to keep in mind that building a popular forum is not easy and you must have patience and dedication for it to do so.
Furthermore, the hardest part of building a successful forum is getting members, and members that will stay around the forum. You also need to contribute relevant topics as well as being the owner of the forum.

Short reply but I think you cover all points to make a forum popular.
Anyway, to make a forum popular is not an easy task but it requires more works from design, content and forum team.

 

[junrose123]

To make a forum popular, It must have its own unique features that are not similar to other forum sites. It should offer good compensation to attract people to join and to be active in a particular forum sites. Since we all know that most content writers are after the points or money that they will earn for for their precious time that they are giving to a specific sites base in my own opinion. The rewards that each member will gain must be easily available to cash out anytime, since other forum sites are just setting their own payment calendars which sometime didn't really appreciated by other content writers. Payment must be fast and efficient if possible to gain trust and reputation among its members.

Making hot topics makes users to visit your forum. This will make them to become eager to comment their thoughts because its very popular and updated topic. Making a good design also makes them to visit and also a smooth experience when doing activities will help your forum to become popular.

You need the following to make a forum boom:

1. Dedicated and scheduled administration presence, I am talking 24h someone has to be available online to moderate and ban and accept and etc.
2. You need marketing, repeat after me, Marketing, marketing, marketing, marketing and marketing, and then just in case add a little marketing, you need to make banners, videos, adds, youtube, facebook, twitter, every single available place where you can make noise you need to make it. You need to make sure at the very least you get around 500 unique visitors per day (At the absolute lowest rock bottom day).
3. You need to make sure your forum isn't just a generic copy of 5,000 other forums out there discussing the same topic, make it stand out. Offer something others don't, like having a forum dedicated dj and streaming radio. Offer bonuses and prizes, make polls. have your members interact with each other for paypal money or some crypto even.
4. You need a lot, and I mean a LOT of time to spend on this.

Otherwise just shut down and find some other venue, forums are major time hags and you really need to be passionate about your topics.

Forum that catches the interest of the reader or your target audiences. It must be unique and relevant, in a way they can relate with the topic. So that they can give their honest intellectual ideas. In return you should also give rewards.

To make a forum popular choose an interesting topic, right and unique contents. Makes sure your topics are on the trend. Hot topics or issues make people curious and catch their attention. Always be updated on what's hot news and what's not so you could avoid uninteresting forum.

Make your forum eye-catchy, make sure that it has a good content and it is user-friendly. Forums nowadays have a good designs and stylish looks that makes your netizens feel comfortable. Good content is a must have also because this is what makes your forum more interesting. Lastly, being a user-friendly website means people accessing your forum do not have a hard time understanding how to navigate and understand your forum. To make it popular, start off to your family members. Tell them to advertise it to their social networking sites, and you also.

So I think it is first necessary to put your forum out there by advertising it to people. For example, you could advertise it on someone else's forum, through a public video streaming website and more. Also tell your friends and family about your forum.
