Get started with phpBB

Pay by card, PayPal or crypto on Zinn Digital LTD’s own secure page. VAT is added at checkout where it applies.

What that actually buys you

Every card here is something these plans grant, explained in the words a person would use rather than the words a spec sheet uses.

Speed

LiteSpeed Enterprise with LSCache

The web server itself is LiteSpeed Enterprise, and LSCache is built into it. A cached page is handed straight to the visitor by the server — PHP is never started and the database is never asked — so a page that took hundreds of milliseconds to build is served in a handful.

Nobody else’s problem

Your own isolated resources

Every account runs in its own walled-off share of the server, with its own limits and its own view of the file system. A neighbour’s traffic spike, runaway script or compromised install cannot slow your site down or see your files.

Built for it

PHP tuned for phpBB

PHP is set up for how this application actually runs — memory, execution time, upload size and the opcode cache — rather than left on generic defaults.

Safety

Daily backups, kept off the server

Your site is backed up every day into object storage, not left on the machine it runs on, where one disk failure would take both. A restore is a job you start from the dashboard.

Trust

Free SSL, issued and renewed

The certificate is issued and renewed for you and never expires quietly. It is not an add-on and it is not charged for.

Reach

Free global CDN

A global cache sits in front of the site, so a visitor on the other side of the world is served from near them rather than from one machine in one country.

Control

SSH, Git and scheduled tasks

Real SSH access, deploys straight from a Git repository and scheduled tasks (cron) — the things that decide whether you can actually work on the application rather than around it.

Safety

Malware scanning

The files are scanned for malware, so a compromise is something you are told about rather than something a visitor discovers.

No surprises

Unmetered bandwidth

Traffic is not metered and there is no overage bill waiting after a good month.

Moving in

Free migration

Moving the site in is free. Files, database, mail and the certificate, with the domain switched over only once the copy is proven to work.

Your domain

Mailboxes on your own domain

Real mailboxes on the site’s own domain, with proper storage — no forwarding tricks and no third provider to pay.

Completely separate from the PBN network

  • Separate infrastructure — none of the servers we use for PBN hosting.
  • Different IP ranges — no address range shared with a network site.
  • No shared footprint — no common servers, neighbours or hosting fingerprints.
  • A different company — Zinn Digital LTD’s managed platform, and Zinn Digital LTD bills the plan on its own secure page.
  • One dashboard — you still buy it and run it from PBN.LTD.

Questions people actually ask

How much does phpBB hosting cost?

From $14.99 a month. The exact price of each tier, and what 3, 6 and 12 months come to, are in the table on this page — they are read live from the catalogue we actually sell from, so they are never out of date here.

Do you install phpBB for me?

Yes. phpBB is installed and set up when the site is built, so it is ready the first time you sign in. There is nothing to upload and no installer to run.

Which tiers is phpBB sold on?

Pro. They differ in disk, files, databases and subdomains — every allowance is on the cards above.

Is it on the same servers as a PBN?

No. Money-site hosting runs on separate infrastructure — a different company’s managed platform, different servers and different IP ranges — so your money site shares no hosting footprint with a private blog network.

How do I pay?

Pay by card, PayPal or crypto, on Zinn Digital LTD’s own secure page. We never see your card details and the invoice appears on your PBN.LTD invoices page.

Can you move an existing phpBB site in?

Yes, and migration is free. Files, database, mail and the certificate, with the domain switched over only once the copy is proven to work.

Is it fast?

The web server is LiteSpeed Enterprise with LSCache built in, so a cached page is served without starting PHP or touching the database, and a free global CDN sits in front of it. Speed is part of the plan rather than something you buy afterwards.

Ready when you are
