Hi,
Going to host a big forum and need to find a good featire-rich web hosting account.
Any good website hosting solutions? Uptime, features, bonuses?
What forum software is better: phpBB, vBultein, Ekarte, SMF? Why
Is it the hosting provider I can rely on?

You no longer need to search through the masses to find reliable hosting providers. With one simple click you can access a vast knowledge-base, which contains expert answers to common questions.

Go to a few hosting review sites and read what people have said, there is a high chance that a host has written positive things about himself so you are looking for negative reviews because those will tell you the truth.

Ensure to see what's actually included in that cheap web page hosting plan. Be sure you know what you're getting for your money so you can plan your web hosting operating cost wisely.

Web Application Firewall (WAF). A good hosting provider should have a WAF to block malicious traffic. It protects your site from hacking attempts.

For a large forum, you need a reliable host with strong uptime and performance. DediRock offers solid hosting solutions with scalability, security, and great support. As for forum software, phpBB is lightweight and free, vBulletin is feature-rich but paid, and SMF is a solid middle ground. It depends on your needs!

Plans from libertyvps.net and legionbox.com are full-featured and prices are competitive.
Their servers are fully-redundant, scalable and flexible, control panel is usable and has web master-friendly interface and prices are not high.

I've switched hosting providers a dozen times, there's nothing wrong with that, so long as you find a host that you like thats whats important, not what anyone else thinks.

Choosing the right kind of web hosting service can be a very daunting task at times as there are some very important Personal or ecommerce web hosting features that you need to make sure of.

What is the backup schedule?
