So I guess the wine industry is going out of business too based on what you see on Serge's site?

It all depends on who is running the site and how adept they are at marketing. It also comes down to the quality of your content, SEO and many other things.

I don't know if Serge is trying to make money with his site, or if he even cares.

I haven't really counted, but the forums on my site get about 25 - 50 post a day - every day.

Cigar Review also just started a wine column which happens to be written by the guy in charge of wine education for Robert Mondavi Winery. We just have the first two articles up with the third one coming next week.

Wine Tasting Basics

Wine Aromas and Flavors

Is there a reason why they would want to be part of THIS community (as opposed to a wider "live the good life" community or "Stuff Men Like" community)?
That goes against what I have learned and proven in online business. The more narrow your niche, the better chance of success. However, you suggest broadening it and making it more general. Genius! Pure genius!

Oh, and yes, everybody gets paid and I make the previously stated profit on just that one site.

Sorry, but I don't even know what you do, nor what your credentials are in online business in general, and certainly not in the mainstream area of cigars and wine.
