Is it really that important to have a good niche?
Until now all the forums I had were general forums.. with so many general forums around is there still a chance of succeeding or do you need to come up with a certain forum topic that is only targeted to a few people out there?

You got to start at the top, and work your way down.

Just for an example, let's go this route. I will get more specific as I go down.

OUT DOOR ACTIVIES
. + EXTREME
. + ROUTINE
. + PASSIVE

let's say you don't want playing frisbe with your dog (passive), or parachuting (extreme). So let's explore routine.

OUT DOOR ACTIVIES
\__ROUTINE
. . . + Sports
. . . + Camping
. . . + Other

Okay fine, let's decide right now that you like Pigskin football. Would you like to chat about Pro, or College, Scholastic or Recreational? Let me drill down one avenue. Every time you go a level down, you get a better niche.

OUT DOOR ACTIVIES
\__ROUTINE
. . . \ Sports
. . . . . . \ Pro
. . . . . . . . \ AFC
. . . . . . . . . . \ Dallas
. . . . . . . . . . . . . \ Offencive Line
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . \ Quaterbacks
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . \ Drew Bledsoe

But becarefull not to be to niche, otherwise you'll only have 10 people! J/K.
