How can i start a free forum with free hosting! and as monetizing the forum is very important, will i be able to post my own ads. I know some good forum softwares but i need some good free forum hosting sites which are free and allow to post our ads.

i have found only one free hosting provider where you can start your own forum, that is byethost.com. However i suggest this could be used for learning purpose and if you are serious and think that your forum will get huge traffic in future then you need to go for paid hosting or if you like service from byethost, you can upgrade the plan to paid one.

Thanks for the info, but can you tell me is the byethost.com is good as a free hosting because early I tried so many free hostings and they su***. They have so many problems regarding thier support staff to their cpanel. They are giving free hosting but not so caring there own clients. Can you suggest some paid hostings who are good at these services?

well, i have also tried so many free hosting, but i like only byethost, but now they have stopped supporting any query related to script to free users, so good for experimenting only.
there are lots of good paid hosting available in market.
hostgator has earned good name.
the another host i have found good reviews about is arvixe.com.
this is just a suggestion and i dont have account with them, but as you have asked, i advice you to do google about the reviews of any hosting provider, before you buy paid hosting.

Your idea is good but I still feel that opting for vBulletin is the best solution at the moment. It is a good forum software.

I'm not trying to blow your bubble or anything, but if you want to place ads and make a profit, just go for the paid host. Really, think about it...
