How do you find your forums?

I realize most of you on here found out about this forum through other forums, but I'm trying to get an idea how people found the forums in the first place. I remember I first found bmw-forums through google, kinda by accident actually.

Do you guys remember where you found out about the other forums you belong to? I'm trying to think of better ways to promote this site, so if you have any, please let me know. haha

Thanks!

I was a member of a couple of foreign-based soccer forums, and a couple of music ones as well... so one day I thought to myself: "Hey, why not a BMW forum as well since I own one ?".

So I googled for BMW Forum... and if you and I got the keywords right, we should be starting to recieve enormous amounts of members as soon as google indexes the site.
