Is it really worth it
I'm wondering about my forum, sure some advertising and word of mouth, will greatly help, but I'm just wondering, is it really worth it? I love cellphones, I have one of my own (yes, the razr), and I would greatly love to keep a active forum on it, buy is it worth it for me to go through the trobule?

(sry if this is the wrong place, didn't know where to put it).

I think if it is something you really want and believe in, then go for it.

Agreed. If you aren't terribly interested, don't do it.

Take me, for instance. I have a passion for booze, so my forum makes sense for me.

my only advice is stay away from controversial topics (ie - politics).
also, it's difficult to compete in a niche like cell phones. I see more and more of these forums popping up.

If you are truly passionate about the subject, and you think there is a demand and interest, then why not?

Wait now... How's that good advice? I find a good debate topic can bring out a lot of response and higher posts per day on my forum.

sure, traffic can be great. But good luck getting approved for advertising campaigns. I've been rejected several times simply because of the political nature.

If you have to ask yourself if it's worth it, it isn't.
