    Custom Blog Theme

    I use DIVI by Elegant Themes. I have a lifetime license. So, they're semi-custom. I remember using Theme Forest a few times back in the day, though.

    What feature is still missing from every forum software today?

    Just like in terms of content creation or what?

    Paid advertising for your blog

    Most people fail with ads because they just assume it will result in something special, but they buy them with no real goal and therefore don't advertise the right pages or campaigns. The ad results fail, and they think it's a waste of money.

    The most profitable forum monetization method tried

    I think you can make more with direct ad sales than ad networks any day of the week, unless you undersell yourself.

    Do newbies get too much abuse?

    I've seen a lot of previous admin forums go that way in the past - none that exist today, minus TAZ. But the worst niche I saw this happen a lot in was meteorology, yeah weather. That was the most dramatic forum niche I've ever witnessed.

    Are Niche Forums Dead in the Age of Reddit and Facebook Groups?

    I've never been a fan of member pruning on forums... However, I do prune (or rather move to an inactive group) subscribers on one of my newsletters who haven't opened any of my emails within the past 6 months. I have to pay a monthly fee for xx-amount of subscribers now. I work with sponsors...

    Too Much Blog Spam

    Oh yeah. I see those all the time. With all the AI tech, you'd think platforms like WordPress and even the forum software platforms would have a handle on spam by now.

    Paid advertising for your blog

    I don't want to pay for advertising unless the goal is to make that money back + profit.

    ChatGPT Search makes Microsoft Bing an SEO priority

    Of course, if it was CIA, it would be joining other forums to recruit their members to spy for your forum :P Sorry - bit of an intelligence buff haha

    Do newbies get too much abuse?

    Yep. I'll avoid those forums like they're the Black Death, LOL. I've left quite a few bigger forums because of that sort of behavior. At the time, they could care less but as the years passed, many of those forums today are completely closed down because they became inactive. Had they treated...
