What do think about the .community extension? Have you used .community for any of your forums?
I have one forum with the .community extension. I have no regrets as I love my domain name, and .community domains are TLD's so it's good for SEO.
I think a lot of forums owners start new sites without much thought, and not planning how they'll grow their community.
For you, what was the hardest part about starting your forum?
I use Google captcha, and a security question, and for normal members spamming. I might give them a chance, depending on the situation. If they don't listen to my warnings, than I'll ban them them.
I've been noticing more traffic to my forums from search engines. You need to steadily build links, and create fresh content. It takes time to see results from SEO.
I don't think so. My forum relies on me creating new discussions. My staff would help keep it alive if I were to disappear for a bit, but I didn't build my forum to stay alive. I want to grow, improve, and expand my forum over time.
