It really depends on the amount of traffic and how large your forums are, shared hosts don't generally want huge resource intensive sites on shared hosting plans. I've had good luck with Shock Hosting, BlueHost, and StableHost (affiliate codes included); I have a whole write-up at my homepage VNC Web Services: Recommended Hosts

The built in media tags include YouTube and Vimeo, there are a substantial amount of tags you can add to the tag editor at UBBDev, the UBB.threads modification community.

You're on a User to User support forum, if you'd like sales support then I'd recommend the helpdesk here; none of the users you see posting on this forum work for UBBSystems, we're users of the product.


I am a Web Development Contractor, I do not work for UBBCentral. I have provided free User to User Support since the beginning of these support forums.
Do you need Forum Install or Upgrade Services?
