The $22/year deal I got was only an example. The point is that discounted deals are regularly offered if you keep an eye out for them.
What is your budget? What are you currently paying per month, and how much are you about to spend on new hardware?
There are lots of sites running vBulletin forums out there, so I'm sure there are web hosts that can handle this site without breaking the bank.
If you can post (or send me) some more specifics on what you need, I'll be happy to help look. And no, I'm not doing that to gain any commissions; just want to help this site continue.
