How Much Would It Cost To Build A Forum Like Nairaland? by JackBizzle: 8:05am On Jun 07, 2017
Dear programmers and web designers

I am just being curious. How much would it cost if someone wanted you to build a forum like nairaland for them.

I ask this because most web designers in Nigeria would rather point you to forum templates which are not simple for the user to navigate as Nairaland is.

Yes, a forum that has a similar functionality and look as nairaland?

Choi, only se.un could answer this question.

Can cost N15000 for the script (design) alone. Domain name registration is from N4000 depending on the extension you opt for then hosting package based on what are looking for.

In total, budget N35000 for all and you're good to go. See the LASU and Badagry Forum links on my signature for my samples.

From the way you sounded, seems you ve little knowledge about webmastering

Let me be simple and truthful, based on say we be WE WE.
Don't go with the above guys. They are just hungry bloggers and link hawkers looking for a way to survive through you.

Since you said you wanna build a simple forum like Nairaland, the only thing that would sound expensive is getting a DOMAIN NAME & HOST (web hosting provider). But you could try a free host to choose a platform you wanna run before buying a hosting service...

I advice you go with VANILLA FORUM(demo link shared above already) cos it's simple, free and flexible.. You don't need to pay a dime and their interface look superb.

Most of the links you see shared above are just a remodification of people work and when you wanna make changes, you will still have to contact them. In contacting them, they will milk you dry again.

If you're ready, just visit the links. Try to host for free before wasting your hard earned cash..

If you want free host for test running your preferred PLATFORM, I suggest you use http://heliohost.org

Bros. Thanks. However, can you personally build a forum yourself?

I can't build a forum single-handedly from scratch because it's time consuming.

But could add my own functionalities to already created ones.

Anyways, I ve sent you a pm

Re: How Much Would It Cost To Build A Forum Like Nairaland? by donsheddy1(m): 10:10am On Jul 13, 2017
A guy up there made a rather hate statement but I don't have to reply him. Let me speak for myself. I already developed it and it's working perfectly well and any modification will be made for you. This will cost you 25K for both domain and hosting and development. You can contact me for demo and inquiry on 08031975415 call or whatsapp

Thanks all.

Trying to clone NL is the first indicator that within 3 months, you're going to give up.. Running a blog is hell, forum is heller.. Don't know if that word exist lol cheesy

My advice here is.. Don't lunch it yet.. Try and read lots of materials... Experiment too. Be confident that you know what you're going into before you start...

Lastly, be original. Seun is at the top cause he was original.. Not by cloning other sites..

Good luck.

Lol.. Do you think it's all about Adsense? You think is all about the money? You have a lot of waking up to do. There's a difference between a good webmaster and a great webmaster. No matter what you do, don't ever settle for mediocrity..
