Planning Before

When creating a forum, do you plan it thoroughly before creating it? Or do you take things as they come and make adjustments according to the members etc.

Niche is on a distinguished road
obviously you need to have some sort of plan. like the niche, categories, layout
But you also obviously need to be ready to change things a little depending on the feed back you get from your users

So really, some basic planning is needed. And nothing else? As you said, yeah it does matter about what the members think.

I think planning is one of the most important steps in starting a forum. You shouldn't just jump in, I like to have pretty much everything laid out before I even buy the domain or install the software. Either in my head or on a piece of paper.

Which do you find easier to work from then? Paper or from ideas in your head? Have you ever had problems with your plan?

I usually like to write stuff down because sometimes I'll be thinking of an idea, go off and do something, and come back later and forget my idea. ;o

Happened too many times with me. Do you actually design your pages and what they will look like?
