    Hi there
    Currently I have a phpBB3 forum integrated with Joomla
    The members is over than 600
    BW per month about 10-20 Gigas
    per day cumulative member online is about 50-60 members (rare reach 60 members)
    At single time moment, maximum member online is 30-40 members (so rare happen)
    and the average is 10-20 members
    So is shared hosting suite for this site...??
    thanks very much

    You should be on a VPS or a dedicated server.

    i think there is no need for a vps or a dedicated server for now a quality shared hosting can handle the website

    You are certainly going to see a decrease in performance with most shared hosting - that being said, there are vast differences in shared hosts, most oversell to be able to offer such low prices. If you're not experiencing problems or slow performance, then there is no reason to switch. There are just so few quality shared hosting plans that aren't oversold, the only control you have is with a VPS or dedicated server. If your site growing, you are going to need it sooner or later.

    I would like to see your current stats. Can you please share them with me? It seems you have decent traffic now and might need low end VPS instead.

    I think that shared hosting plan can handle that much activity, but with time I would suggest you to get a good VPS.

    I guess it may be ok to host this website on the shared hosting. However, I would have a look at your control panel if there are some stats of the CPU usage. Compare your CPU usage with the allowance stated in the Terms of service and you will see if it is ok for shared hosting.

    Shared hosting is not enough for 600 visitors on phpbb3. Also, vps is more flexible for security.

    I believe in shared account as a best option for you now. VPS is much more expensive then shared web hosting account.

    You may go for a good vps or small dedicated server.

    You would be good on a good provider shared account. I currently use MediaTemple and I'm in love:)

    How much is your avg pageviews per day. It can point in the right direction... If you have 600 users just viewing avg 2 pages its only 1200 views which any shared hosting can handle

    yes you should be on at-least VPS.
    may be your host does not allow you this kind of site.
