Forums are Massively Succeeding in the Christian Niche

[Jason76]

Forums are dying. But any search for Christian forums pulls up tons of them with tons of activity!

I guess they're the exception as far as a niche goes. 🙂

Since this is a very personal niche I can see it thriving more on a forum rather than Facebook. There are many different Christian Denominations and some people prefer to only discuss topics based around the denomination they practice, and having a forum is better than having a group since you can have full control over everything.

Yeah, definitely the devoted fanbase is why they work so much.

So, if you can get devoted people on your niche, then it will explode. How to do that?

These days I am working on a forum directory and I have found that there are a lot of forums running successfully since the beginning of this century. I have been on a few Christian forums and they have highly dedicated users.

I think this makes a lot of sense with the content censoring that we saw on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/etc a few years ago, especially given the political environment that we've had going on in the US. There was a pretty clear push against the big social media sites, especially when it comes to conservative voters, at least here in the US.

Yeah, that would draw a bigger crowd to forums and blogs.
