No not a forum, a niche site, with product reviews and articles. What took me so long is probably the fact that I was constantly searching for "the easy way" instead of just doing it. I am up to $117 now, still making alot more on CPA stuff, but thats fine by me.
Nice one, that's the hard part over. Since I reached the threshold about 5 months ago I haven't had a month below $100 which is cool. Concentrate on filling your site/s with good unqiue content and you will make a nice chunk of change each month
