Hi everybody, I am in thinking about starting a community for my magazine, It is a girls magazine with very good content and design and has already some heavy traffic. My question is what would be the best way to do it assuming i have a discourse already instated on it.

1. in a sub domain?
2. integrated within WordPress?
3. should i seed some content fist? i think nobody will sign up if the site seems empty.

hopefully somebody who has already done this can share some tougths about this.

thanks in advance!

S
