I'm really not sure there's a market for guys who make fruit and vegetable salad dishes.
And if there is, your site needs to be explicit about what it offers.
Currently, anyone who finds the site will instantly reach for their Back Button - whatever they wanted, there's no sign that you offer it.
Content is King - and you don't got none.

Thank you for the feedback. We are in the process of developing our content, but at the same time we would like to get ourselves onto some search engines. How do we start doing that?

There's no point in getting in the SEs before the site is ready; you merely build up a pool of people who won't come back.
There's no way to get (usefully) listed in the SEs without content. Searches are matches of the user's search term, and the content on your page.
You have no content on your page.
It's really not a chicken and egg thing - it's a chicken and family meal thing. The chicken HAS to come first.
Once the site is ready, come here and read around a little - I guarantee you'll find many useful tips in a short visit.
One to start you off: Put yourself in the mind of your target audience; what does the front page (your key page) need to say to make that person scroll down to your forums? What makes their visit worthwhile? What makes YOUR forum different to all the others in your niche (I'm assuming you've looked at them?).
Good Luck!

Hi,
Your site looks nice! But I had no idea what it is about or what I can do. Maybe an atractive introduction would help.
good luck,
Danny

I this a local or regional thing, is there a specific topic.
The graphic seems to imply that it is either directed toward a specific city, or a specific trade such in construction. Yet the topics are about investing and scholarships?
Select a topic or 2 then adjust your logo so that it is clear on what exactly you are talking about. This will encourage people to want to browse further into your content.
As for Categories????
* Ah Mee Daze (2)
* The Money Place (2)
* The Rojak Man (1)
