The other thing about a VPS is do you know how to properly administrate a server or will you need a managed VPS?
Thanks. I will be needing a managed VPS!

There's no justifying the mid-high xx monthly cost for a VPS package, when a shared site will probably do (for a new site).
Thanks a lot really appreciated as well! Now are there any companies that you guys would recommend. lot of bandwith... and very good uptime, its very important because this is a crucial time (launch) dont want any upset users!

THanks guys, upoun researching I have found out about Hostgator, will be trying them! their Swamp package (Shared Hosting)

Thanks again! you guys are great!
