I was thinking about how usefull a forum is for the exchange of information and the bonding of a community. I thought it could be terrific for our company which is basically an association of about 30 to 50 dealers spread out over North America. We are in a new industry so the sharing of information could really be beneficial to our company.
So, I would like to ask any of you who have had experience in this, what is involved in starting and running a forum? What does VBB cost to run? Is VBB the best choice for a very small membership? What sort of bandwidth is necessary for a small sized forum? Is the programing and implementation hard to learn? Am I biting off more than I can chew?
My guess is that we would get about 30 - 70 members with about a couple of hundred posts a week, but it might get picture heavy.
