This presumes - and I am hoping - that you are intending to create a forum where bsd users of all levels can come to ask good questions and get help.
DaemonForums is, without a doubt, 100% help-oriented. We hope to accomplish as much as BSDForums and more in this area.

there will obviously need to be much more done to get the word out about daemonforums
Yes, indeed. We started working on that even before DaemonForums was announced on BSDForums. We are contacting all of the news and community/support listings on the web to help spread the word. (Including all the official and unofficial *BSD news resources)

Specifically, this site needs to get way, way up on the list of search engine results for "bsd forum", et al, in order to attract new traffic
You are exactly right. Getting high up on the search results will be the #1 factor in determining the long-term success of these forums. New users can not get help if they can not find us. Unfortunately, we do not have the money to bribe Google to make us their number one listing for a "BSD Forums" search. The greatest factor in achieving this will be simply more threads and more posts. Over time, when the search engine bots begin seeing that "BSD" and "forums" occurs thousands of times throughouts our pages, we will begin to rise in the search results.
