Selecting a niche

Hello

i joined here intending to get information on a creating a successful forum.
My niche was cannabis cultivation but i seem to be running into legal troubles which have made me decide to select a new niche.

In the past i have run semi successful signature forums and music forums which fell through due to lack of finances.

I have many interests but selecting a niche is rather hard. I was interested in using one of the above two but they are hard niches to be successfull in due to many large forums already around

I currently have a custom skin which i will be edditing slightly and coding once i have chosen a niche

Any suggestions welcome (looking for a niche to chose)

I think only you can choose what niche you should choose, because only you know what your interests are... What I would do is make a list of topics you are interested and could see yourself running a forum about. Then search on the major search engines for "your keyword forum" or a similar term and see what the competition is like for each niche. Don't be discouraged by competition, but some topics have been done to death, like general or gaming forums.
