I  purchased a IPB hosted package a few months ago,(now expired)but I'd like to purchase a license in the near future.
At this time, I have a free smf board, with a web-host(Go Daddy).

Can smf.2 be converted to IPB? Can I still use the same domain name that's registered with my web-host? Do you have technicians that convert forums to IPB? If yes, give prices.

What's the license price? is it necessary to include the first-6month renewal payment with purchase? or, can the renewal be paid at the 6-month  due date?

With a licensed forum, is the online users unlimited?  Is the online users still monitored like the IPB hosted packages are?

Thank You.

Yes, you can convert from SMF. Please refer to http://www.invisionp...ite/convert.php for full details.

If you are self-hosting and buying a license, you can continue to host it where you do now on the same domain.

We do not offer an inhouse conversion, however you can find custom services to help you out should you need it, or you can post in our forums for assistance.

The license price can be found here: http://www.invisionp...rd/purchase.php It includes the first 6 months of support, updates, and services in the price. Additional renewals are every 6 months.

We do not have any limits on online users with a self-hosted license, you are only limited by what your server/webhost can do.
