What exactly do you mean? Do you ask for a free hoster? SMF still is free, so just download and install at your webspace.

To make a site like that availible at simplemachines.org, you need to know HTML and PHP. This is not really something we can help you with. Both are complex  (but HTML is kinda easy to learn)

Do you have a host?   Does your host have mySQL and php?

Read the online documentation.

Really, you should read the documentation.  There's a link at the top and everything.  You'd be surprised at what is in there.  It might even help you figure out what you need.

Then buy a domain name. There are many domain name registras, so look around until you find one with a price you like.

Heres a quick run down

-SMF Forum Software is FREE
-Web hosting can be paid or free
-Domain names (www.()&#$.com) cost money.

Free hosting is normally a bad choice. I have yet to see a free host that gives out quality service

Yes but its a good way to get used to being a webmaster

Being a webmaster and a webkiddy are different things.

Webmasters know how to use FTP
