Setting up a website and forum

The free package of geocities doesn't support a forum. I can tell you that.

And if you want to pay for web hosting, you can better look around for more web hosting offers, before you pick one.

What to look for:

For the usual forums, web hosting must offer these things in their package:

Enough webspace (10 MiB or more)

At least 1 MySQL database.

At least 10 MiB storage space for that database

PHP (usually version 4.0)

The sizes all depend on how big the site and forum must be. Also, keep an eye on the data limit, forums drain much of that.

It might be that I'm forgetting something.
