    To start a forum, you need

    1. Domain

    2. Hosting

    3. Script

    Domain can be purchased from namecheap.com and many other providers. For hosting, try hostgator. As for script there are two options, paid and free.

    Paid : vbulletin, Xenforo, IPB

    Free : SMF, MyBB, phpBB

    Buy a domain, redirect it to your hosting and upload the script. You are ready to go.
