Companies like Starbucks , Dell , even my previous employer Microsoft Advertising , all do community incredibly well and it has paid off for all of them many times over. In addition, WordPress’ sister offerings, BBpress and Buddypress offer message board and social network features as well that all integrate well with each other.

Leverage Facebook advertising to gauge the audience opportunity. Forums Message boards are really the first internet form of social media, after IRC. Research other fan pages to see what those Facebook users are not getting elsewhere and give it to them. Do all these things and blogging will be really rewarding for you.
