WEBSITE AND FORUM...

[Sempai]

Dear Guys,

Is somebody here who can give me advice concerning free website and forum builders etc.? I have to make a site for our association and have absolutely no clue about html or whatever would be needed to build website and forums by my own.

Greetings

Simplest thing to do is set up a wordpress site ( I use wordpress on our homepage) and then link it into free forum software.

www.wordpress.com

There are a few free forum software packages, the most popular are: SMF http://www.simplemachines.org) phpBB http://www.phpbb.com) MyBB http://www.mybboard.net/) YaBB http://www.yabbforum.com/)

I can attest to Bootie's comments above. I have a small website for a side business and it was designed in WordPress. I now do maintenance on the site and have had to learn WordPress and it's pretty easy to use.

OK, Thank You both very much! I´ll try it today in the evening. That will help me much.

Greetings and have a nice day You both!

One question yet. Is it allowed to ask You both for some advice from time to time to get the grip of wordpress?

Of course you can.

Sempai do you own a Kindle? If you do, there are some great free ebooks at http://centslessbooks.com/index.html under their Computers & Internet tab on how to use Wordpress in addition to your two great resources in the club.
