What is the future of forums? Paid vs. Free
Some forums now limited times in which you can join or some have gone to you have to pay to join.
I have this forum that I started recently and notice that I get a lot of Spam bots that just post links and some are not even in English. It is a free forum software that I'm using and looking to up grade to a paid forum software to help limit the Spam bots, but I wondering if I might be wasting my time with a forum if my niche is not big enough or can't find a way to make money with it.
How are forums making money now with all the Spam that is out there and so many people becoming banner blind, does this mean defaulting to a paid niche forum?
Paid VS Free what is the best path?
Any suggestions or advise of running a forum would be greatly appreciated.
