Really excited for you, starting to see contributions from others is such a great feeling :D Fwiw, I found that pointing to a chill Introductions post as a first step, with a couple of simple questions, was really nice to get people posting and get a feel for the kind of things they enjoy and look for in the comm. (I was quite surprised at how many people posted an intro then never participated in the comm again, even when otherwise active on Dreamwidth, but still! I found a lot of value in this post.)
Btw, do you have any recommendations of places to promote comms (rather than events) besides [community profile] fandom_on_dw, [site community profile] dw_community_promo and [community profile] pimpmethis?
Looking at my post on promoting a comm, you've got most of the ones I know about covered! fictional_fans also welcomes promotions, as long as it's fannish :)
