About Big Boards
Big-Boards.com is a website directory aiming at presenting to its visitors a list of the most active message boards on the web. These message boards may be ranked by post count, by members count, by post per member ratio, using only recent (previous week) data, using alexa.com ranking system, or by traffic for the boards which have included one of the big-boards trackers. Visiting forums from this list may be very interesting for different reasons, for a user simply searching for particular information, searching for an active community on a particular subject, or for a forum admin to learn by looking at successful boards how to improve his own management.
