I have built a vBadvanced front page on flexoshare.com and vBulletin forum on http://www.flexoshare.com/forum/index.php.

What I want to to is to transfer the forum to a new host, so I dont have to start all over and rebuild. While I am transfering, I want to give it a new domain name.

Keep in mind I am not very technical, so the more help a new host can give me....the better!!!

Thanks

Web Host will not be much helpful in transferring your web site.
You have to register a domain name for your forum, arrange the web hosting, create a database , move your forum pages to new host's server and finally migrate your database

Hello,

As you mentioned that you are not very technical, let me tell you that is possible, if you are interested, send me a mail about what exaclty you are looking in your specification at shane@bodhost.com

Thanks

First thing you have to register the domain name with which you have to move with the new one.
Then find a host who provides you the best technical support because usually the forums need good technical support especially for the database moving.
Then move your forum to the new host with the database you created.
Make sure that the database are available before you move the forum pages.

I can't see why the host won't help you.
I know a number of hosts who'd be more than happy to do that for their clients
