I was wondering what the average SMF user classified their website as?

By professional - I mean a site that currently or in the near future will be used to generate income.

all the other options are non commercial


*note to moderators - please feel free to add any categories that I might have missed.

My forum is a company-based site even though I'm too young to start one, so my vote is PROFESSIONAL :D

I chose Educational/informational because my forum is used for people networking and for programming advice/support.

Pretty much the same here, although all information from my  forums (http://www.iabusinessprojects.com/forums/index.php) are free, unless someone wants to donate, the rest of my site is based around my business.
