So, I'm a beginner in web development. I've made free forums and gave them domains. Here are my examples:

Roundbox.co.cc - MyBBNew (Free version of MyBB)
Roundbox.tk - SMFnew (Another free version of SMF)

So, I want to create MyBB and vBulletin forums now. My other friends have created forums by coding the whole site or using different methods. One of the sites my friend coded all by himself is:

cisguild.site11.com

^ Yeah, a 000webhost.com host. But, he got a .net domain for it. And, my other friend created a vBulletin site dedicated to iPhone hacking and modding. But, they're both usually busy and offline. I'm familiar with the basics. But, can't really construct a whole forum, trying to make it free.
I googled many times for free versions of vBulletin but couldn't find any. I'm not sure if there are ways to get vBulletin and MyBB free. But, you guys can help me out.

Thank you for reading,
Pulse.

which one is better? Am using mybb and it's realy great

I preffer Mybb, As Vbulletin is heavy on the server, Im not saying mybb isnt but it's less then vbulletin..

MyBB is much better.

Use mybb, at least that's my opinion.

Vbulletin navigation is a lot less user friendly than MyBB. And Vbulletin is a paid forum software, so I would go with MyBB, since it's also more customizable.
