I am contemplating the idea of launching a social networking platform that focuses on providing tips and discussing various technologies.
The primary requirements for such a platform include the ability to support multiple languages (Russian and English), integration of a donation feature similar to Patreon's, and the option for users to log in using their accounts from other social networks.
There are a couple of potential approaches I am considering:
a) Building the platform using a content management system (CMS) with customized modifications
b) Developing a completely self-built platform
Here are a few questions that I would like to explore:
1. What are the approximate costs associated with each of these options?
2. Are there any alternative solutions that I might be overlooking?
3. If I choose the first option, which CMS would be the most suitable in terms of scalability?
4. Which hosting providers should I consider for this project?
Any information on ZakServers.com and also Kvchosting.net providers?
What host is better from your views? Why?
Additionally, if you have any insights or suggestions related to this topic, I would greatly appreciate your input.
Must say that Zakservers.com is great web host with friendly support. I have encountered support several times about my site and they have gotten back to me, almost instantly. Pricing is really competitive.
They are my good friends and am sure will be in the future. Recommend their bitcoin dedicated servers.
I'd say they are friendly people, have good service, good value for money and only minor flaws. I'm confident enough with ZakServers.com to host all of my sites with them - both personal and business. Their price isn't the cheapest around - but for what they offer I can't find anybody with better pricing.
