Well the hosting service he chose bizzahost.com no longer exists, not that it matters but some review sites on it said it was a terrible service. Cheap isn't always the way to go. Anyway they are no more so good thing this course was free! :)

This was a great and helpful experience. Building an online forum would require spending more time practicing some of the installation steps. The course was very enlightening. The instructor's delivery was quick and sweet. I am going to search for and take his more extensive class!!

Zach's course directs you to very specific commercial providers and stops well short of actually teaching you how to set up a forum properly. He probably took an afternoon to make it. Its free, so I guess we can't complain, but I wish I paid someone better to give me a proper explanation of the choices, the considerations driving those choices, and how to actually do it all well (rather than half-arsed).

it was easy to understand and well put together but didn't show me how to do this if I already have my own website with a different web host.

The instructor seems to know what he's talking about. The concepts come across very clearly. My only recommendation is that the themes used in the course be provided in the resources section as they do not appear to be available on line, any more.

Not a bad course, but I was looking for information about adding a forum to a website and this seems to address standalone forums. Quick course, and the information was good, it just didn't meet my particular needs.

The instructor needs to get his act together and test what he plans on teaching. It is extremely unprofessional to provide/present untested or nonworking themes in his course curriculum. I believe he can improve his game/presentation.

If you've done any webpage programming, this is a good course about adding a forum. Provides enough information to allow you to get a forum going in fifteen minutes.

I did not achieve in building an online forum in less than an hour. I have been at this for two days now and received absolutely no response from the instructor to my queries.

This course has too many errors in it that are not helpful to the learner. The lecturer jumps over the scree display, doesn't explain some terms and gives the impression that he videoed himself doing this without any previous thought. Not impressive.
