[Blake M]

So i am about to purchase a license this week, and i am wondering about a host that i can put my website on! Just wondering if you guys know any good hosts that i can use XenForo on!

For a new installation, basic shared hosting will work fine.

You can consider upgrading once the site traffic increases.

Thanks @Brogan

I just am new at this and don't know what would be a good host, i know some hosts don't even work from reviews.

One.com <--- is the best, the 1st year is free for beginners. Although Hostgator and Bluehost may be to your liking as well.

Bluehost and HostGator are absolute crap. Don't go with them.

Stay away (FAR FAR AWAY) from any EIG related company.

But what is so bad about web hosts owned by them?

Do some research.

Pick yourself any basic hosting package for a forum start up. Godaddy, 1and1, fasthosts, 123reg, namecheap etc etc. We have thousands of XenForo installs on these basic services who have no issues. Just be aware that in the future you may need to move to something more specialist / performance based. But to get going most cheap shared hosting packages will be fine.

HawkHost.com is good too. Use coupon codes they have on their homepage.

You want a professional hosting company who can support you 24/7.

Just compare the hosting requirements of Xenforo with your hosting. Chat with them or start a ticket. I have friends who recommend to use popular, reliable and big hosting. Just to make sure that they give good support and won't melt away one day.
