Exciting news! We're extending the Custom Domain promotion until July, 2009.
You already have a completely customized forum, now get a domain that shows off your unique community, like forum.sports.com, instead of sports.lefora.com. Buy (or already own) a custom domain and we'll upgrade your lefora forum - free (usually part of the Lefora Pro $15/month package)! Read our FAQ below to learn more.
Here's how:
Twitter users:
Just tweet to @lefora, we'll DM you back with instructions (you'll need to follow us for the DM). Here's a tweet you can use, just change yourforumname.

@lefora, I want a free upgrade of my awesome Lefora forum at http://yourforumname.lefora.com
Everybody else:
Write a post about your lefora forum (on another public website, a public blog, or another public forum) and tell us why you want a custom domain for your community and link to www.lefora.com. Then send an email to customdomain@lefora.com and include 3 links (your webpost, your fourm, and your domain name) and we'll reply with instructions.
This is a limited offer, so make sure to twitter or post before July!

Some Frequently Asked Questions:
What should the post be about?
Whatever you would like! Maybe talk about your favorite feature, or how easy it is to create a forum, or our great customer support. Or just talk about your own forum and why you started it. We look forward to any feedback, it helps us build out new features.
What do I need to link?
Just link the words 'free forums' to http://www.lefora.com/
What is a custom domain?
Lets say you're running a pet forum on lefora, called dogs.lefora.com. But maybe you own (or want to buy for $10) the domain www.dogs.com. We'll let you use www.dogs.com or forum.dogs.com as your forum's url. Nobody will see the lefora.com domain.
I already have a domain, can I use it on lefora?
Yes, say you have a website like www.example.com, we can help you get forums.example.com pointed to your new forum.
I don't have a custom domain, where can I buy one?
There are many sites that allow you to purchase a custom domain, some for as little as $5/year. Yahoo is a well known brand and they offer $10/year domains.
