I wouldn't host a forum or anything else on a free host, and neither would I get a hosting package with a free domain, I would always buy my domains seperate to have full control, I once had a bad time with someone that had registered a domain for me when my hosting with him ran out he wouldn't transfer my domain back to me, I had to get Nominet involved and it still took a ages for me to get it back.
Since then I decided to setup my own hosting company and get a nice dedicated server for myself, I only provide hosting to people I know or word of mouth but it pays for my costs, maybe you should think of doing the same? you can start of with a good reseller package then upgrade as you start making more money, I can always help you out if needed
