You don't need to rely on social media and its walled gardens to have a tea party. Forums are the original social media!

Share your passion

Whether your thing is serving your customers or gathering enthusiasts of underwater basket weaving, forums bring people together.

Let nerds help

Spinning up your own servers and maintaining them is expensive. Let the cloud be your guide.

POP Forums first landed on the Internet in 1999 as a home-grown forum for a site about roller coasters. By 2003, it became an open source project. You can still download it for free on GitHub, where it has been translated into several languages. It has always been about love for niche communities.

We carry super computers in our pockets now, while helpful people deliver stuff to your house within a few hours of purchase. It only stands to reason that someone else should take care of your online software. POP Forums is built to scale, for communities of all shapes and sizes. Our pricing plans are simple: you pay for the number of times your topics are viewed.

The classic forum format is familiar, like a warm scarf in winter, and gets out of the way of great conversation. If your users don't like avatars and signatures, they can turn that noise off. It might be inspired by the 90's web, but it works great on mobile and it's super fast. There are hundreds of millions of views in the history of this code, proven to bring people together.
