		<description>Its a great article and I have enjoyed reading it, starting an online community (forum) is exceptionally hard to do and the easiest in my mind are clan or gaming forums as you are lready together for a common cause, othere are a lot more difficult and freinds and family along are not enough to get your forum where you want it be. Paying for posters galled me to start with, but it does work I have worked with several and to date my favourite have been &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.forumsfirst.com&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt; I think they are quite new but if anything it gives them more drive. I am currently using two or three different vendors.

One day I should write a comparison site - hmm&lt;/a&gt;</description>

		<description>I think it&#039;s a fair enough recommendation for people who are looking to get their forum off the ground. Starting a forum is easy but running a forum is always a difficult ask. Contests are good way to get a forum going but you need to spread the word about the contest initially and offer a suitable reward. 

It is assumed that Paid forum posters lack quality and it&#039;s a waste of money but if you do some research and hire a good company it can work wonders for your forum. As mentioned you should buy the the largest available package as by the time the activity of paid posters is over, you get a good no. of genuine and active members.</description>

		<description>They didn&#039;t reply to numerous of my requests about their service so I opted to not use them. If you do have to file a complaint with Paypal, make certain that your complaint says they were &quot;paid to deliver digital files&quot;. If you want to know the reason why then read &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?t=375005&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;THIS&lt;/a&gt;. The entire thread is worth reading, but the 30th explains the digital files.</description>
