A friend of mine was telling me that the site http://www.netfirms.com/domain-names/   is offering / registering domain names staring with www. and this is supposed to redirect visitors thru that link to your forum.  They also say that there's no need to change the hosting of the current forum nor move any files.  The domain-registration would simply allow easier access to the forum by redirecting visitors to the current forum location.  Frankly, I don't trust such offers.  Just for my information, I thought I'd ask for your comments on this.

If you get a domain you can park it..There is nothing unsafe about  parking a domain...It doesnt need hosting or moving files..If you dont trust the provider I suggest godaddy.com. I personly wouldnt park a domain, i'd install SMF.
