First make your site look sharp.  Choose custom colors a good photo and welcoming message.   Click edit beside description on your cover page then scroll down and you will find where to do all that. Send an email to all your friends and relatives with the URL pasted in  explaining the group and inviting them to join and asking them to forward the message to their friends and relatives asking the same.  It takes a  long time to build a good group, So good luck.
