Hi,

I started a new forum and accompanying blog at Unemploymentville.com. It's an online community for... can you guess? People struggling with unemployment.

I created the community both to be a resource for people and because I'm writing a book on the topic.

But here's the part I didn't really figure out and I'd welcome suggestions and advice. With 8.5 million people unemployed in the U.S., I'm struggling to figure out how to make people aware of the forum. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
Anne

No, I haven't. Do you have any experience advertising on LinkedIn? I guess I can google for people's experiences with it.

I would recommend at least ten blog entries before you get aggressive about trying to get people to come. Good, solid entries that show people you have a lot to offer. All the advertising in the world won't help you without good content.
