    Default Hosting Plan for Betting Tips Company

    Hi All,
    I will be launching a Sports Betting Tip web portal within a month. I am not sure which hosting plan to choose, Please help me which will be best option for me
    1)Dedicated
    2)VPS
    3)Shared
    About Me
    I am not a techie, hardly know about software/web development and about hosting.Outsourced my web development project.

    Issue
    Dedicated and VPS are expensive for me as I have no revenue from sports betting and already spent thousands of Pound on web development. Secondly thr. might be not much traffic on the website so will it be worth to spend 200-400 pounds/ month on dedicated hosting

    I am worried if I choose Shared Hosting , this application involves money transaction through money bookers,paypal,credit card etc. Thus security is a challenge and has to be taken care precisely else it can cause a big issue

    Please help me which U.K hosting plan and hosting company will be best for my website

    If you have already outsourced your development, you should also consult with the development team to see what they recommend suchg as minimum requirements for your hosting plan needed.

    I would probably encourage you to pick a host that will allow you to have a wordpress site (but then the dev people need to do that also).

    This would allow you easier control over further development and content down the road if you decide to.

    A vps or dedicated is nice for more extensive projects, but you are likely able to get started on a shared hosting account. (providing the host you pick offers what your developers suggest as a minimum)

    If an affiliate program is not small affiliate friendly (especially small US Affiliate), then they are NOT Affiliate Friendly!
