HELP - Message Board Hosting ? ? ?

[ericwinters]

Help …

 

I'm not a code guy nor IT related, but have been using Microsoft applications for years and years. I'm considering starting a Message Board and am totally LOST when it comes to finding a provider.

 

NOTE: this will have nothing to do with this industry or any other adult related industry.

 

Here is what I know:

• I'd like to have the option to select and include advertising of my own selection, not the provider or host
  
  
• I want to have posters verify they are real and not bots
  
  
• I'd like to have a rating... favorable or unfavorable and then have the site create an overall rating based on the thread
  
  

What I do not know:

• is this site threaded, semi-threaded? I think I like semi?
  
• how so board owners avoid legal risk for posters? do they have approval processes?
  
• who has the best reputation for hosting?
  
• I have my own hosted domain, but thinking of creating a new one for this idea/project
  

 

Do any of you have comments, suggestions, ideas or personal experience to share?

Avoiding legal risk, it comes down to the terms of service and having people who sign up for an account agree to indemnify the site owner/host.

 

OVH/Google Cloud/Digital Ocean. THey are all at different price points. It comes down to budget and if your content is legal on their platform

 

Feel free to PM if you have more questions.

 

You would want to get a good platform like XenForo (which this site runs on) and then create your own functions ontop of that. Farm out what you can and focus on what sets you apart from the rest.
