This will be a quick review about hosting a forum script at bluehost web hosting plan. Question is, will bluehost hosting suitable for phpbb forum script hosting, the famous open source forum discussion script. Note that phpbb are forum scripts and it require more server response expecially php process and mysql database query, if compared to web publishing or blogging website. So, its important to test it out and review it.
phpBB forum script is available for installation from blue host fantastico, we use that link to quickly setup phpbb at this blue hosting plan. Once we are done, we perform some quick testing on the new forum site. Browsing the new forum, to identify any slowliness in server response etc. What we find out is what we expected, bluehost hosting is using high end server, thus hosting a phpbb forum site will be OK as long you are running a small size forum.
