Community Forum Development

Humans thrive on interaction. They possess this innate need to share. For ever since man has known existence, communities have addressed this need successfully. And now with the information technology age shaping up, communities have taken up a new avatar – the digital one.

A few years ago when Web 1.0 ruled the world of web, online communities were a distant dream. But Web 2.0 has revived the practice of forming communities. The interactivity and dynamism imparted by Web 2.0 have spurred the online users to connect with each other over common attributes and engage in meaningful exchange. They give a sense of belonging and a sense of comfort to the users.

There is not a dearth of online community forums. But it’s very important that an online community forum is developed appropriately to fulfill its purpose and garner maximum audience. Since these forums are driven by certain common attributes, the development efforts for such forums need to reflect on these. Radix has a team of professional analysts to study the objective behind a forum, the target audience, and the commonalities. We then ensure our developers and programmers align their efforts to this analysis.

Radix entails tried and tested expertise in programming with highly trained software engineers undertaking the development process. Radix is the one-stop-shop for expertise in programming languages like PHP, Perl, Java, ASP and many more. We consider phpBB – the most popular platform for online forum development – our core competency. We also use phpBB to offer customized forum development services. We can customize the forum modules, features, themes, etc. Given that we work mostly on open source platforms, we pass on the cost benefit of freely available source code to our clients.

We design and develop community forums to support image and video posting. Radix offers end-to-end community forum development which includes analysis, designing, programming, integration, hosting and maintenance.
