MyBB Google Help!

Alright, so I purchased a domain from Google Domains (Beta) and I've been trying to make a MyBB forum for a week already. However, I can't seem to find out how to make a MyBB forum. I've tried 000WebHost and x10Hosting but it's too complicated. Is there a way to make a MyBB forum with JUST using Google Domain? Overall, I'm asking how do I create a free MyBB forum with a Google Domain? Please, dumb it down as MUCH as possible. I know jack shit about websites. Although all this research is actually helping out a tiny bit. But seriously, please help. I would appreciate it...

BTW, I use FileZilla!!

So you bought a domain when you don't even know how to build a site...

Well, I never owned one before. I'm pretty sure everyone goes through this process when they want to make a website. I mean, I don't know if it's possible to make a website without a domain?

OP, to answer your question; no, you cannot host with just Google Domains.

Google does have a cloud hosting service, but it's likely not in your price range (seeing as the two hosts you tried were shitty free hosts).

A few links to things you need to understand:

If you don't understand the above links in any way, you should give up and use Icyboards or something.

I think I understand. But I have a surprise. I managed to make a forum! Kind of... It wouldn't let me do it on my Google domain for some reason so I just did a test forum. http://smash.x10host.com/ And wow, thank you I think I might just use IcyBoards for my google domain. Also, I used x10hosting for my test forum. Also, thank you again, I really think I'm going to use icyboards!

Oh, also I'm on IcyBoards as we speak. It says that I'm allowed to add my self-purchased domain yet it won't allow me to do so? Like, it doesn't give me the option to put my own domain. Can you help somehow?

I will set it up for free. Just get a god damn hosting first? lol.

Does anyone know why Hostings tell me to create a sub-domain? Why cant I just use my domain? Please reply if you know why.

Of course it's possible to build a website without a domain.
First rule when starting out (for me at least) don't buy the domain until you have totally figured out what you want to do with it.
Then give yourself some time to test some files locally on your end.
After figuring out what you want to do and what your index page is gonna look like then I guess you can buy the domain.

You just don't want to pay for something and have no idea what to do and how to do it.

TLDR; Save money.

EDIT:
If you need help with anything, you can message me, I'll try and help.

Thanks to everyone who helped out one way or another. I finally got to install MyBB onto my site! I was so dumb for not knowing what to do... Anyways, I'll be showcasing my forum once I get the hang of things.
