Default Does incentives help grow a forum?

I have tried a few incentive and gimmicks to try and grow my forum, non seem to work. Has any forum owner tried an incentive that works wonders for increasing membership or participation?

Default This Idea May Work

I got this idea looking at the results from you recommending webtalkdirectory. Many people went and registered there. Maybe this could work.

Make a deal with the management of non-competitive forums to do a short review exchange on each other. members of similiar interest would then join.

Do you think this would work?
