But there is a massive problem! i have only 14 members in like 2 months i have seen people here that hae had a forum started of for a month with 100 members!

Good call from about specializing — that is often the fastest path to growth. For 's beatboxing forum the low sign-up rate usually reflects three things: insufficient discoverable content, too-small initial seeding, and unclear reason for someone to join instead of using YouTube or a general music site. Sites that hit 100 members quickly almost always launched with a clear hook (tutorials, contests, exclusive videos) and pushed short, shareable media into other communities.

Best places to advertise besides search engines:

  • Short-video platforms (YouTube shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels) — beatboxing is visual/audio and clips convert well.
  • Niche audio/music sites and SoundCloud-type communities for demos and loops.
  • Reddit/other focused forums and Facebook groups related to beatboxing, vocal percussion, hip-hop and busking.
  • Discord servers and real-time chat communities where jam sessions and critiques can happen.
  • Local music schools, busking groups, and event listings (real meetups convert passionate users).
  • Collaboration with beatbox creators and podcast guests — trade visibility for content.

A simple 30-day seeding plan:

  • Create 5 high-value starter threads (beginner tutorial, loop pack, gear guide, show-and-tell, contest).
  • Seed with 10–20 active contributors (friends, local beatboxers, a couple of influencers).
  • Post short clips back to social platforms linking the forum threads.
  • Run a weekly challenge with a pinned results thread to keep return visits high.
  • Make onboarding frictionless: a “Introduce yourself” sticky and clear first-post prompts.
  • Use unique links per channel to see what drives sign-ups and focus effort there.

Cautions: avoid cross-post spam, respect other communities’ rules, and prioritize retention (posts per active user, return rate) over raw sign-ups. Specialize the site’s value — exclusive tutorials, slow-motion breakdowns, or a members-only loop library — and growth will follow.
