will my forum stay free

hi all i`m just wondering if my forum will allways be free to run like will i have to pay if it gets lots of members and becomes a popular site and if so at what point would i have to start paying

i am preety sure it will stay free until you decide to buy your custom domain

if you were to get a high number of registered people getting a custom domain would be a good idea

i`ve allready got a custom domain name and pay to remove the adds ,so there will be no other costs say if i had a really high number of members and a lot of members online at the same time?

Forumotion will be a free community and the more members the more traffic and money and expansion forumotion gets so its a win win situation

oh cool seems good but why do people pay for the hosting of there forums if u can just get it free here like how are the paid 1`s better

The paid one's have a slight advantage by layout, point system better but comparison of forumotion and the paid is closely equal only little diffrences

Becuase when you pay for hosting and host a proper forum on a webhost, you have access to everything. Anything can be changed, anything can be added and there are A LOT more possibilities and A LOT more features.

EDIT: I guess ProphecyCSS knows very little about hosting forums on paid web hosts.

no need for arguement starters but its sad little that you know my clanning forum is a paid forum and i see little diffrence

Then I guess your not getting the most out of your paid forum if it remains similar to a forumotion forum.
If your finding very little differences then I recommend you stick to free hosts. They are pretty much made for beginners.

This also goes as advice to the OP who asked this question, hence making it related to the topic.

well i could`nt see anywhere else to ask it

Hi craig, Forumotion will remain as a free forum hosting provider and your forum will always remain as free. Payment is only required if you decide to buy credits for ad removal or a custom domain.

thanks for that m8
