When you are looking at hosts, you have to choose based on several factors, including how long they've been around, reliability and uptime, and pricing plans that fit you. You want to be able to grow without moving everything as well, so you will want to look for the capacity for growth as well. If your idea takes off, will they be able to handle it, or will you have to move to another host?

It's a good idea when you narow it down to your short-list to search through the boards, like GFY, Soprano, etc for the hosts' names. if you see nonstop posts complaining about support or service, and no explanations, it's a bad sign.

Good luck in getting started.
