Thanks for the reply. Well the main reason for the rewrite was that I wanted to switch to a different web application framework so I could accomplish features that I can't with the current framework I'm using. And also to clean up the code, and write more efficient unit tests. Though I'm just planning through it.

Yes, though I really don't have any idea how to REALLY market a website. The only idea I know of was spreading it through Facebook open graph, but it still wasn't enough. I'm thinking of ads, and more ads, but I don't have the money for it.

What framework are you using? What are the features you can't implement with it?
I don't know if it would be ethical for me to tell of the framework I'm using. What I can say is that it's quite new and collaborators of it are small unlike that of Yii, Zend, and Symfony. (I'm using PHP) Unit testing, database ORM, model validation, etc. are hard to make use of on this framework I'm using, as these functionalities of it are lacking features
Well in any case I have a hard time imagining that the framework you're using is really the cause of your main problem, the lack of users.
Sorry, but I didn't say nor even think that it's the cause of my main problem.
You state : >I don't know if the idea was wrong.

And then you state that you're going to rewrite, implying as if the rewrite is going to help.

I'll save you the rewrite; it's not going to help your lack of users.

At the very least you have a marketing/lack of awareness problem, at most you have a shitty idea problem. None of which have anything to do with the technology stack you're using.
