Step by step install guide

[TheRetainer]

Hello all, new member here. I've been looking for a while for a great, free message board, and it seems clear that Yabb is by far the best.  I'm now looking for a free web host for my board, and will then will start the install. However the more I read on this board, the more confused I seem to get about this. So many options... . My question is, has anyone made a step-by-step guide for installing Yabb on a free host? If not, would anyone be kind enough to do so? I know it would help many people like myself, who whilst being comfortable with the majority of computer issues, have little experience with coding/php/cgi etc.

Many thanks, I look forward to joining the Yabb community.

What host have you chosen? Usually, the install is the same no matter where you go, it would be in the readme file.

Thanks for the quick reply. I haven't got a specific host yet. I've been reading the ones suggested on this board, and there seems to be quite a few that are rated highly. Basically as long as it is free with as few ads as possible then that's fine. Lycos.co.uk seems to have been chosen by several people here, and after some mods Yabb works fine there. Are there any hosts that you would particularly recommend?

Honostly, a paid host.  Infodoma starts at only $5 per month.  It is worth the headaches that will be saved.

The only free host I'd recommend is Boardnation
