MyBB may not be in the same league as the paid software’s, but it’s probably the best free software available on the market. MyBB is simple to use, it’s easy to create forum threads and send private messages as well as editing your profile pages. For a newbie to forums, MyBB is my recommended forum software. For the newbie,s I will include a guide on installing the MyBB forum software below, just follow the instructions, and you are good to go.
