Hello,

For long time I have been looking for a forum software which can suit my needs. I know thats vbulletin is the best in terms of functionality but it is not giving me that results which I am expecting.

There are lots of software but I want the one only for forum as I am focused for forum software.......

Which software would you suggest which have Google grace with it????

phpBB is a great software. It's free and has A LOT of MODs and skins. The others, besides vBulletin, have very limited resources.

Another alternative is SMF or otherwise known as Simple Machine Forum. This is an open source forum software. You can also try MyBB. This is also gaining popularity as a discussion/forum application.

I think Invision Power Board is a good choice too. I see a lot of sucessful forum using this forum software. Another alternative for vBulletin.

Invision Power Board is a good software as well. It's a little more difficult to learn but so is SMF, sort of.
MyBB is pretty good. I love it. The only problem with them is that they don't have a lot of modifications.
