Forums

I would like to include a forum on my website to get people coming back. I have a few questions about this:
1- How hard is it to moderate a forum? It seems like something that would be considerably time consuming, but would be worth having on my site
2- Are there any good programs out there that allow you to have a forum, or is this something you have to code in? I'm assuming there is a program, but are there any decent free ones?
3- Is this an effective way to get people to your site? I want traffic, but is this the kind of traffic I want?

Thanks

Most feel that vBulletin is the best, but it isn't free.
