The South Florida Business Journal, a tabloid published in Dade County, Florida (Miami), and targeted toward the business community, is a niche market publication. It started out with just a few thousand subscribers. It still claims fewer than 20,000 paid subscribers but it is nevertheless a very successful business publication.
