Recently I've been trying to think of "niche" ideas to get a good active community on a forum. I've already scrapped two previous ideas but today thought about making a forum for comedy, as in TV and Film mainly, but also other stuff like flash movies or textual jokes etc.
Now I know comedy is a fairly big niche (if you can call it that), but I was just thinking is it already that widely covered though, I mean I did a google search quickly for "comedy forums" and a few decent sized (thousands of members) ones came up but the rest seemed quite small or dead/inactive.
I've got a domain and everything, and I'm prepared to go and purchase my first copy of vbulletin (I've used IPB for my 2 other forums). Just wondered what everyone else thinks, and whether or not it's got a chance of being successful.
I'd appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks :)
