Thank you for your replies.
If you check out Sharkscope you can see that the state of SNG's are declining on pretty much every site year by year. There's still profit to be made in them of course but if you're looking to make some real money I'd look at cash games/MTT's. This to me is less to due with the games being inherently difficult, but more to do with the removal of rewards/rakeback programs that have killed the games at higher stakes and have created a situation where traffic only really exists at the $30 and lower level. When you scroll through some of the Stars $15 SNG's at various formats for example, you will find players who regularly played far higher.
Having said that, it appears Party Poker has created a pretty cool rewards program with actual good rakeback. For now it's the only major network currently doing so, so I would imagine that would start to bring some traffic back along with the potential of making some real money.
