Have you remembered to make the whole path of directories up to the
user directories world-executable?
Assuming Apache is running as nobody the following is a useful test:
su -
su - nobody
cd /
cd home
cd some_user
cd public_html
If you at some point get a "permission denied" message, when changing
directories, you have found the problem.

I prefer to keep the document root as
/home/(apache|www|httpd)/www.domain.org/
or sometimes even
/home/(apache|www|httpd)/www.domain.org/docs/
(then I can keep the CGI programs in ...org/cgi/)
Play well,
Jacob
