I searched a bit and not sure which way to go. I am looking at starting a web community (forum). My question is will I be ok with a host gator shared business plan (19.95) or do I need to bump it up a few notches to a managed server account ($150)? What does the managment include? Will I need the dedicated server right away or can I start small while building up the website?
Second question is what software should I start off with? Wordpress? pHpBB? or Vbulletin? I know some people recommend starting with just a blog but I'm really looking for a community environment. Thanks for the help a head of time.
