I need a new host that will be good for a new website (described below). "Reviews" online are usually nothing but affiliate links and dated material. Can you recommend a host?
What I Will Have:
- A social website (hopefully lots of user interaction, not just a static website)
- The targeted audience is in the thousands, but realistically I'd be happy with a few hundred for the first year or so.
- The targeted audience is in the US
- Website will be using Wordpress & BuddyPress with many plugins.
- https
- I might make it optionally paid membership, but I'm not sure if I will (Anyone here good with Paid Membership Pro? I can't figure out where to put shortcode to get badges to show up next to usernames.)
Here's What I Need:
- Fast! Supporting WordPress website with many plugins. (I hate slow sites.)
- US based servers (to help speed)
- Cost around $20/mo
- Decent support
- Good amount of bandwidth & HDD space (I don't really know what I will need, but users can upload images)
- Would love it if it came with free SSL (and setup)
- Fast (did I mention that already?)
- Would love it to support "add on" domains
- Preferrably CPanel, but not a must
Anyway, recommendations are needed. I appreciate your help. And, if you have any experience with Paid Memberships Pro, please let me know.
