Rother Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Well, there are forums for just about everything out there. Number one I would say make it something you are really interested in / a sport, a game, a hobby or even a particular model of car. People will search for these type of forums and that is important. I started a golf forum years ago and it quickly became very popular (over 3000 members when I eventually handed everything over) I had great fun with it but it eventually took up too much of my time - ask Jamer, he'll tell you how much it takes :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoTMeLTer Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Dave over the years you have had loads of different attempts and always come back to square one. Create a forum with something in mind like current trends and STICK WITH IT! have a theme like Touch Screen Phones or Premier League Football but what ever theme or product you choose stick with it and promote it that would be my advise, changing all the time people end up not bothering with you as they know it will not last. JamersPad has been here the 90's and even when the forum has gone quite (Like now) Jamer has just kept it going to be fair to him and people know that, changing every so often just makes people loose interest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I would agree with hotmelter find a topic and stay with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badlad Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Slightly naughty asking a question like that on here do you think? lol :Vault: If you cannot think of anything become very active on here and a moderators position may become available in the future, offer you license to Jamer for a good price he might be interested? other than that I can only reiterate the above from the other members Dave.
