E-mail your hosting provider and explain that you want to run a forum that may have a one gigabyte MySQL database and ask if their SQL server could handle that. You will get an email back explaining the prices of their dedicated servers..

Since we quote all our clients individually for their needs, we do not offer “package” deals like other providers. Contact us via email and ask for a quote. I will need to know how much disk space you need, what location would you like to be located at and how much traffic do you usually get on your website.

Location is essential because if you run a local business, you should have a network connection near your location rather than all the way on the other side of the country which makes your speed on your website slow, may make it unreliable when that long connection runs into issues with other providers and may frustrate your customers.
