Does anyone know a...

Does anyone know a vBulletin forum host that is cheap, like $4-$10 a month? And one where the license is already paid for? The vBulletin license? Because, buying the license it self is out of my price range, and I just got enough money, at least $140 to pay for it monthly, so if anyone knows one, please post.


An easy discription: The same thing with Invision Free.com, the host and all that costs money for a domain, but instead, the IPB board changed to vBulletin, NOT hosted by IPB.

Hope that explains. Please reply. Needed information ASAP.

I am 99% sure that the vBulletin license prohibits this. I am not aware of any invisionfree type deal with vBulletin software.

I have never heard of anything like that before.

You could always "buy" a leased license and than in a year or before that ends maybe you will have enough saved up to purchase the license. This way you can get your forum going.

As for host, I have heard good things about asmallorange & site5. Those seem to be the ones a lot of members here are hosting with.

Good Luck,

James

I use Site5 and they are a very good , cheap and reliable host.They have people working around the clock and are very fast response.

As for the vB license maybe you could buy a leased and then they allow you to upgrade within 30 days (gotta check that out) so if you plan it right you can buy a leased then when you get the money upgrade. I am not 100% sure on this. I am now checking my sources.

I heard that SiteGround was good. $4.95 monthly.


I'm planning on making an "AdminLounge" which will be the name.


If you are interested(It will be up in a couple of weeks) It will be located at, http://adminlounge.net .


I didn't .com because those stupid people who put up those search engines. >. But yeah.

Offish Topish:

Forum Type: WBB, phpBB, ASPPlayground...Well most probably ASPPlayground, because it doesn't increase bandwidth charges, and i've tried it before. And it's legal.

I would avoid an ASP program and go with a database type software. Might I suggest MyBB or SMF. They are awsome free softwares and both of them are easily converted into vBulletin.
