www.forfreeforum.net - Free to use forever

I have just launched a free website aimed at people who live in the United Kingdom.

I am going to install vBSEO shortly once I am actiavted, but can people from the UK please register and then let me know what they think about the site etc.

Website:
..:: FFF : ForFreeForum::.. - Powered by vBulletin

I have also put a page together for the media and general info PDF:
FFF : Media Page Downloads

Also have a couple of little buttons which you can put on you're site:
FFF : Link Buttons

Any comments good or bad are welcome!

Thanks

I recommend that you remove the "Powered by vBulletin" text from your template. See here for info:

As a side note, I would suggest limiting your forums for the time being. You are WAY to small to have 100 forums. start with around 5-10.

Thank you,

I do understand what your saying. However, I have to have all counties listed so it is easy for a member to post something if they are from that area.

Its not going well to be honest with the search engines, im not listed very well at all on google - then again this may be why?

I had a look at the cache version of googes page it has for me and also the text version, and it looks ok.

Any help you can think of which you wouldnt mind sharing would be excellent by the way - hint hint! lol

Whilst offering users alot of choice regarding forums is always a good thing, presenting a layout which appears to have composed of 90% inactive forums doesnt present a good image regarding the activity and community sense of the website. I'd always recommend start small, and then expand when demand requires you to.

Thank you very much. I will have a think about how I can do this, maybe make some forums hidden etc.

Thanks very much for your help

Yep, like everything in life and business you have to start small, only essential forums where you know people will post in.

A big tip for starters: start posting content yourself and make it unique and valuable. Invite friends to start discussing popular topics with you, you will notice that visitors will join these conversations, that's how I build my board from scratch.
