Some of them are attached to existing websites that are membership based and they were developed as an additional extra available to members. They are very much industry related but some of the forums I run are also topic driven (like blogging). They are a great way of developing a profile as an expert in your field but I've never used them specifically for income producing. They definitely do take work though and I have co-moderators who assist when required. I’ve been managing/moderating a number of forums for many years.

Setting up any community website requires a lot of hard work, commitment, dedication and passion. If you don't have these qualities, you shouldn't even try. Forums can add huge value to a website, although they can be harder to monetise if not attached to a site offering additional content. I make my living online creating communities and love all aspects of creating and maintaining them, hence the reason why I recently setup my <a href="http://www.communityspark.com/" rel="nofollow">community building blog</a>.
