Hosting Options for Launching a Social Network?

[Michel001]

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 QHoster.com provider?
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.

Thank you!

If you want a website for you, your family, friends, blogs, etc - it is an ideal solution. I am with Neironvps.com web host for three months and yes, it is not as reliable as my other hosting which I use for business. For the money it is a great service.

All I want to mention that I have no headache running my web sites with them, uptime has been great - the promise 99.9% uptime is correct. ProfVDS.com is great! I would recommend them to anyone who needs hosting at a great price, with all add-ons included in that price.
