I'm really a beginner with all of this !


.. So does anyone know a good web host that will allow me to easily add applications, such as a forum and google friend connect ?





I have tried justhost.com before but had no idea what I was doing ! Thats how much of a beginner I am !





Any advice will be much appreciated !! Thanks !Hi all ! I need some advice on creating my own forum site to go along side a retail site that I just started..?
I recommend one of these: http://www.webhostingtable.com/





Powweb has the best offer right now, they have a limited time sale, hosting for $4.88/month ($58.56/year), and you get a free domain (like www.yourwebsite.com) from them.





Their hosting plan includes web builder, so you can create your site just by drag and drop (without any programming), or you could install Wordpress (easy, one click install from their control panel), choose a theme that you like, and start adding content. They also include one click install of phpBB (and some other) forums and a lot more applications.Hi all !

If you鈥檙e going to create a forum site at your own domain without any forced ads, you need a web host providing forum tools (phpbb or vbulletin).

Hope this helps.
Don't use a paid hosting until you know what you're doing. Try a free hosting like http://www.myfirehost.com/. After you get an account just install Mybb (http://www.mybboard.net/). If you have any more question on how to do it, just ask the guys at myfirehost.com they can help you out.





Hope this helps.
phpBB is an open source forum solution.

Well , there is hostgator , google host yahoo and godaddy.


But the most recommended and best web host so far is www.NetworkJuiceHosting.com ; Network Juice.





They now offer plans starting around $0.99/mo for a great amount of diskspace plus everything else unlimited. Plus they've manage to keep up 99% Uptime.





They have all features such as PHP5, java ,Cpanel , Fantastico ( allows you to auto install Blogging systems and CMS portals without wasting time) , Cron Job , Apache ,Unlimited Dadabase , ftp accounts and much more. Basically EVERYTHING! is supported.





There are other affordable plans as well in NetworkJuiceHosting.com.





Hostgator.com is also a great host , but there Uptime time is not so good. Also , customer service is very poor , Not to many features are supported.





Google.com not so sure , But i know there's lots of files they do not support , no Cpanel , and i don't know how come , but they have been receiving downtimes lately in their host servers.





yahoo , let me just say it's the worst web host ever ,you can't even host the amount of domains you want to host . Including FatCow.com. The downtime is way to much , and many files are un-compatible in fatcow for some reason.





To buy a domain , the most recommended site is godaddy for only $10.00 a year. , but not for it's hosting!! I Tell you !!!.





For a Great Affordable web host with maximum features , the most recommended web host is www.NetworkJuiceHosting.com . ; Network Juice Hosting.








You are getting your answers from an expert , and yes I have tried all these web host.








That's all I got to say mate ;)
