    You'll find it very hard to get the guild setup with only yourself in it, and not even being lvl80. You should really try and get in with a group of people, and then create the guild.

    my best friend is in it and i got another guy in it, its slowly progressing but i keep on putting recruiting adds on /2(trade channel in sw) and nobody replies

    Again, the problem with /2 recruitments is that, unless your well known, you are a dime a dozen. The best thing you can do (i would say) is just start running groups in instances, trying to make some friends, and getting to know a few people on your server. Offer any decent people you group with an invite, but dont come off to strong. Its kind of tougher now, as pugs are cross realm, but you'll pick up people as you go.

    Indeed it is very hard to form a raiding guild nowadays.

    Basically all major raiding guilds are well known at this point and have their reputation set up. I've seen many attempt it. Some successfully.

    Continue with your recruiting attempts but don't spam /2 every 30 seconds. It will only pi$$ people off.
    First things first, get yourself to level 80 fast and get geared up via badges. Same for anyone else in the guild. Travel around lowbie areas and offer help to some for the harder quests (not that their is many pre-lvl60 anymore)
    Offer other incentives such as help with profession training etc..

    Best of luck.

    The other thing you could do is when you get to 80, start running some raids and invite randoms as necessary. Start simple (eg voa), and if you play a few times with good players have a chat with them and see if they're interested.

    Keep things fun and people are more likely to be interested.

    It would of course be alot easier to do this the other way and join someone else's guild that's already established (gear yourself up first then ask if they have any alt/random raids you can join).

    People will only join guilds if they can see the progress you have achieved. You need a big of end game progression.
    Otherwise advertise heavily as a levelling guild, with emphasis on levelling characters and running pre 80 instances to gather people, then gradually move your way to 80.
