    He meant Digital Point Forums ;)

    Also check the official tips sent by Google at adsense.blogspot.com (here) and at problogger.net (ad formats, colors, placement, etc.) :)

    I have a nice little e-book that I've dug up ;) and it goes into great detail about placement and color schemes. Message me if you want to see it (no I'm not selling it, for free :) )

    Is it a good idea to make forum community just to use Adsense.
    I think it is not a wise choice.
    Because visitors become used to these ads and CTR remains very low.

    Forums are known for their extremely low CTR and you always run the risk of a forum member posting something that's against Google's ToS and might get your account banned.

    So in general I think you will be much bertter off if you build a site and add adsense to that, rather than adding adsense to a forum. There are exceptions to the rule, but they are few and far between.
