how much does it cost to create a forum,and how can i go about it.

The cost of creating a forum is not that much, if you can pay for your hosting, then you dont have much to worry about. You can get a cheap hosting plan for you forum at www.ezzyhostng.com.
Then the type of forum you need should be the next thing. there are so many open source forum software out there, you can use to create your
forum, but if you cant do it you self, then you can contact me at ezzyslim@yahoo.com and i will fix it up for you.

Creating a forum is a matter of getting a hosting service. Hence try this www.vbhostnet.com

smf is free but not the best

hi, I can aid you design and develop a forum. Check out www.talkem.com, its a forum 100% coded by me. Call me on 08030716751 or email me at igweze@live.com.

The cost of a forum is much more than just the cost of hoting. infact hosting is one of the easy sides. how do you intend to market your forum, how do you ensure that you have quality content and not just a bunch of adverts etc
My advice is to sit down and ask yourself, what will this cost me in terms of time, money, efforts? what sacrifices do I have to make because forum business is serious business. I am a business consultant specialising in E-matters and i know what I am saying.
