Q. Can I host a forum on my website? A. Of course! Forums are an integral part of any community-based website and an extremely popular way to communicate with friends, family, teammates, etc. With a Squadwerks™ hosting account, you can install pretty much any sort of bulletin board/forum software you want, provided it's compatible with a Linux-based server. If you're not experienced at installing bulletin boards, all of our hosting accounts include the Fantastico cPanel addon, which features several of the most popular bulletin board systems available. Applications within the Fantastico system are generally "one-click" installs, allowing even the complete novice to have the ability to have a great looking bulletin board up and running within minutes. One thing to keep in mind about any community based forum, blog, or gallery...resources. If your site gets very busy or overloaded, be sure to pay attention to how many resources your site is sucking up from the server...too much and you may hear from us. Don't despair if we come calling though, Squadwerks was launched as a result of our own gaming group getting kicked off hosts for using too many resources, especially after grabbing national media attention, so we launched our own servers and now provide top-line service to our customers. We'll help you find a solution either through optimization of your current hosting plan or perhaps even an upgrade.
