If you're looking for a web hosting company to use for your forum start up journey, what are the most features which you're looking for before being convinced to subscribe to the hosting company? Is it reliability, affordability, support, security, uptime or what more else that must be guaranteed for you to choose the web host?

1. Cost: Determine your budget and research the pricing plans offered by web hosting providers. Make sure the plan you select meets all of your needs within your budget.
2. Reliability and Uptime: Make sure the web hosting provider offers reliable service with a guaranteed uptime of at least 99.95%.
3. Security: Ensure the web hosting provider offers security measures to protect your website from cyber-attacks and other malicious activities.
4. Control Panel: Check to see if the web hosting provider offers an easy-to-use control panel, such as cPanel, to manage your website.
5. Support: Ensure the web hosting provider offers customer service with knowledgeable and helpful representatives available to assist you with any issues you may have.

The cost is the first thing I look at. If it’s affordable, then I’ll look at reliability and reviews from current and previous clients. They often say more than what’s available on the website.

Reviews. I will research the host to the extreme degree. Cost is a secondary factor only. I will not go with the cheapest, nor the most expensive.
