What Hosting Plan Should i use??

[garvey86]

I follow Joel Comm`s Blog http://joelcomm.com/ and he has recommended hostgator a number of times so here i am!

I have decided to set up a blog and forum using vBulletin 4.0 Publishing suite

So ill have a forum which i plan to monetize with google adsense ads etc and a blog update providing articles, breaking news and useful resources every single day. My niche is mobile phones.





I have been looking at another forum in my niche and they have the following Statistics (not sure on the age of the site):
Threads 3,252 Posts 10,154 Members 7,319 Active Members 401

Im new to hosting and im not sure what plan to buy so i was thinking of getting the business plan so if its popular i wont have to upgrade? What would you recommend?

I also noticed u get 100 credit for google adwords

All three shared hosting plans, including the business plan, have similar server limits, so you wouldn't get a greater capacity with it.

Right now you have 0 members, correct? Get one of the shared plans and if at some point you need to upgrade, you can worry about VPS/dedi then.
