When you're starting a forum, how many posts should be made a day?

Well right now my Arcade Forum is at 35 posts a day. Myself I was about 15 of those posts but in the last week I have been averaging only 8. For a brand new site. started on July 5, that I think is pretty good.
I have another older siet that I have kind of put aside and it still has an average of 2 posts a day, which is not enough to be self-sustaining but not quite dead.
My goals are 50 a day for my arcade forum which I would like to reach by December and then my other forum should be 25 by that time too.

Well, while your forum is starting out, you should be making at least 10 posts a day of varying discussion levels.

Depends. If you have 9 forums as I have then 20 is the best you can do. If you have less forums, then you can go with even more numbers. ..

Depends how popular you want it to be really, think its more about quality rather than quantity though

At the very beginning, I shoot to make about 100 topics, about two for each board every day.

Maybe about 15 - 40, don't make it all yourself, this won't attract signups either, its the same as talking to yourself or only to one person the whole time, use different usernames.

I don't think you can really say a number. It depends what you're posting, how many other members there are, how many different forums you have on your board and a whole myriad of other factors.

Have you done anything to try to achieve this? If so, what?

Hire a posting service in India? If you do that and if you're located in US/UK (or Europe), then you can cover pretty much all time zones, can't you?

I suppose that would be one simple solution.
Also maybe create forums to accommodate different regions. With my travel board, this isn't too much of an issue for us as have a good range of geography in our members on that board, for obvious reasons.

I presume that pretty much everyone chats about same SEO issues, so SEO forum can target pretty much everyone around the world. ... but I don't know, ... probably I should just focus on posting a little more consistently, i.e., everyday. Making a 24-hours-round-the-clock active forum isn't exactly a short term goal.
