I wish I only paid 5 bucks for it...It all depends on what kind of forum you want to buy. They have free forums available called Invisionfree, but they don't have as many features as other paid forums. You can buy an IPB license, which is the type of forum we have. We paid $70 for our license, but they may have raised the price since then.Plus you have to pay hosting each month, which can change depending on how big your site is. If you're looking to start a forum, I suggest starting out with a free service. If your site starts doing well, then upgrade to a paid forum.</span>

    a domain also costs money..com , .net, or .org domains usually cost around 6-9 dollars per year, which is pretty cheap so like tony said you just have to worry about hosting issues, ESPECIALLY if your site gets too big. thats why you dont want people spamming all over the place with big pictures and stuff, that could really take up your bandwith as well.but hosting come at different prices depending on how good they are.
