Anyone good with hosting services? I belong to a forum that used to be on AOL and we moved to proboards about a year ago. Free was good 
We are not as happy as we could be though. Mostly that is because we don't see any new faces anymore. The forum has been around forever and lots of us have been there more than 10 years (that feels a little crazy!). So, we are talking about having a domain hosted and using phpBB or vBulliten or some such thing. I've never done this and since I set up the proboards, they are all looking to me. It isn't a super active forum...maybe 10k posts a month, 350 visitors a day going by stats listed currently. I know I've seen sites go over their bandwidth, but none of the hosting services are even mentioning bandwidth or they are calling it something I don't recognize as that. Links, thoughts or "don't do it you're an idiot" would be helpful :rofl1:
