About Coolboard

Message boards are a great way to make your web site more active with new and interesting discussions posted every day. Strong discussions not only keep your current users coming back but also help attract new users. Message boards are also a lot of fun! You can get to know your users better and share information, ideas and experiences.

Coolboard.com is a leading provider of free web-based discussion services with many unique features to make creating a lively discussion easy.

All message boards are hosted and maintained by Coolboard, so no software downloads or installation is required. You also don't have to worry about bugs, or upgrades. It takes less than 5 minutes to create your boards.

Message boards can be customized to look just like your web site, with your own graphics, backgrounds, fonts and even navigation.

Moderating a board is also simple. You can screen messages before they're posted, delete posts, and even ban users you don't like.

Your users will also love Coolboard. It's easy to use and allows users to really express themselves with features like HTML messages, mood icons and more!

Building a More Active Message Board

With Coolboard, you never need to worry that your message board will sit unused with only a handful of messages.

Coolboard's unique community sharing system allows you to share messages with message boards on other related sites.

While each site can both customize and moderate their own board, all boards in the same shared community can benefit by sharing messages posted from any site in the community

You'll be able to draw more users because your boards will always be active.

Take a look at a few examples of message boards that are using the Coolboard community sharing system.

Here are a few of the more than 40 boards sharing a discussion about Adobe Photoshop:
