Last month I installed SMF for a client. It is a free forum, like phpBB, used by many webmasters and owners on their websites but to install it you need your own web hosting. My client has his own web hosting so installing SMF wasn’t a big problem. Now, not everyone has their own web hosting so forum solutions like SMF or phpBB (and others) are not recommended but, fortunately, there are websites where you’ll be able to create free forums like the one offered at Forums-Free.com.
It's FREE!
As the name of the site implies, you’ll be able to create a forum at Forums-Free.com for FREE! At Forums-Free.com you’ll get:
- Unlimited access! Unlimited number of messages and users;
- 40+ Themes to choose from;
- 30+ Different Languages;
- Personalization like logos, avatars, etc.;
- Chatbox, Portal and other cool features
Creating a forum is very easy with Forums-Free.com. In fact, it’s only a four step process and they are:
- Choosing a name
- Confirming your e-mail
- Entering your forum information
- Choosing a theme
The steps or process is so easy that I was able to create a forum in just a couple of minutes, even less I think. Click here to view the forum I created. Don’t be surprise if you don’t see anything in there because I just created it to see just how easy and quick it is to create a forum.
Forums-Free.com’s forum are powered by phpBB so if you are familiar with phpBB forums then running a forum hosted by Forums-Free.com would be easy for you. If you are not familiar with phpBB then don’t worry, it’s very easy to use and you’ll get the hang of it quickly. I should know because I used to run a phpBB based forum once.
Anyway, hosting or creating a forum with Forums-Free.com is quick and easy so why not give it a spin or two.

Wow, this is something I’ll definitely take a look at. Was just wondering a few days ago what it takes to create a successful forum. The possibility of getting a FREE one makes me think about doing so even more!
