Firstly, welcome, and thank you for your interest in UK Business Forums, the UK's most active online forums for small business owners and managers. Membership is open to all and basic membership is free.
Here you'll find like-minded members dedicated to helping each other solve business problems, find new suppliers, win new customers, share experiences and practical advice. Read more below:
Non-registered visitors to UK Business Forums will be able to browse freely in the Business and General Forums, however to participate in discussions you will need to register for a Free membership.
For a range of extra benefits to get the most out of UKBF, it costs just £36 per year (including VAT) to upgrade to a Full membership.
Multiple UKBF accounts owned by the same person are not allowed. The moderators and administrators keep a keen eye on multiple registrations and any abuse of the rules will be noted and may result in a strike or ban.
You will find thousands of business owners with similar aims and objectives on UKBF – although not always with the same views, experience, outlook and temperament. It's for this reason that we ask that members treat each other with an ethos of mutual respect.
UKBF community members should always feel free to post and reply to forum threads without feeling at risk of retribution from other community members for their views. Members found to be acting with disregard for others' views, inciting arguments or being insulting will receive strikes– and for persistent disrespectful behaviour bans may be imposed.
So, post constructively and, above all, be respectful!
This forum exists to facilitate networking, support and the sharing of advice amongst its members – you make UKBF what it is, and at all times, please feel free to use the Feedback forum to tell us what you don't like, why, and how you think UKBF could be improved.
Two well-used features on the main navigation are 'My UKBF' and 'Quick Links' – these are described briefly below, but the best approach is to get stuck in and see what the forum features do!
UKBF has processes in place to deal with inappropriate content – please see the descriptions below for examples of inappropriate content that would result in moderator involvement. Click into each item for more detail.
