Social media is a good starting point. If you have a Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest account then please do give
CookingBites a mention. Maybe pick an interesting discussion thread or recipe and link back to it or invite others to join in.
If you have a blog or other website where you can put a link back to here, that would be helpful too. The more people become aware of it, the better chance we have of getting interested new members.
Less obviously, coming here regularly to chat and start new threads is a great help, since activity promotes
more activity and the more new posts there are to read, the more often people will return, and the more often they'll join in.
Also, you may have friends on other forums who might like another forum to chat on. Tell them about
CookingBites too; but please don't spam other forums or solicit the whole membership, that's not good netiquette. I wouldn't want us to get a bad reputation. We must respect other communities as we build ours.
For my part I'll continue to push forum content out to our Facebook and Twitter pages - see
yesterday's mention of the recipe challenge.
Cheers,
Shaun
