Hello,
I've a friend asking me to make a forum for his political site, he has 10.000 uniques/day and ran a successful forum previously, now he wants to make a separate domain just for the forum.
Now, i have some sites on HostGator and feel OK with the service but... could it stand phpBB which is quite resource hungry ?
As far as i can predict his users are heavy users and it should be expected an average of 500 subscribed users and 1000s of pageviews.
Anyone running phpBB on HostGator on a shared account ?
Can it be done or i need a dedicated server ?
