Should i get
1) Shared hosting?
2) Dedicated hosting ??
3) Reseller hosting?
4) or maybe Server co-location.........?

PLZ tell me WHAT DO U THINK!

unless you're absolutely positive you'll be using heaps of resources right away.. i'd suggest getting a shared plan with an option to upgrade when and if needed.

no use paying $99+ per month for a plan you don't yet need.

not that i have extensive experience regarding auction sites.. but all sites take time to grow to 1000+ hits per day.

Hi paVel

Go with a cheep virtual (shared) - till you are sure that you know you need a dedicated server. Few virtuals can not handle 1000 hits per day.
