Hi everyone,
I hope I'm posting in the right section.
Let me first apologize for any questions that you may find dumb or stupid. The thing is that I'm a newbie when it comes to creating a forum. All I have right now is an idea and I need a forum to help it grow. I decided to use vbulletin for that purpose. I would like to ask you to please school me on what I need beside buying the software. I know I need to register a domain name ( done it already). Here are some of my questions:
1- I use OSX 10.6.3 , is that a problem? What should I be aware of or look for?
2- do I need a server version of my operating system?
3- where to host it?
4- Can I do it on me.com (apple) ?
5- If not where? I know cheap and reliable don't go hand to hand, but who is the cheapest reliable hosting company out there?
6- Can I host it myself? What will I need?
7- how hard is vbulletin to deal with for a newbie?
Sorry for the numerous questions and the long post. Please help me! I really appreciate any input.
Thank you!
