MenuIs go daddy a good hosting option if I want to start small and scale to hundreds of thousands of users?
My developer built my site on asp dot net and based on his recommendation we hosted on godaddy. As my project grows, is godaddy a good option to continue hosting? I worry about scalability and security.

Godaddy is pain for developers and technical people, as it is set up for simple things. You can use any good hosting companies or any cloud servers. But if you need to talk to a human godaddy is a good option. Scalability will not be an issue with Godaddy, as they can sell you any infrastructure when you grow bigger.
Hello
GoDaddy is not great and if your a developer I would go for a different option as go-daddy maybe restricted for you.
GoDaddy is definitely not the best option for hosting, not even for keeping your domain!
I'd recommend to get a reputable hosting company, preferrable not using a shared hosting. You can check out Google Cloud Platform or Amazon Web Services that will scale up with your needs.
Godaddy would not be my first option of choice, they have a lot of associated services that can help you grow, like the smartline feature, however, on the functionality and design sides, they tend to fall short, at least in my opinion.
I would recommend to look at wix.com. they offer plenty of personalization, easy integration with 3rd party softwares, usefull apps and much more.

Which level of DoS protection is best to start off with for a startup building a social network from the ground up?
Denial of Service protection is a key component of your perimeter defense along with your firewall, intrusion detection/prevention and continuous monitoring. There are several managed service providers that you can choose from. The first vendor you should contact is your Internet Service Provider (ISP), they may have DoS services available as a component of your contract or they will have DoS providers they partner with. Once you have identified the services your provider offers or the DoS protection partners they have you can evaluate which is best for you. If you have more questions on this or other security, data protection or regulatory requirements, PCI may be important for you, feel free to let me know. Best of luck in your venture! -StevenSteven ParkerSP

For Initial Users: Sell User License or make it into SaaS?
SaaS. Always. I am a founder of a Startup about to launch our first product (mobile app). We looked at this very question. In the end we looked at the impact the decision would have on our company's valuation. Based on my initial, informal discussions with funders in my area (Canadian Atlantic Region) with single point of sale revenue a healthy technical start up is worth approximately 4-6X annual revenue whereas the same company with a subscription or SAAS model is worth 10x and up.Richard LockyerRL

Which is better for SEO: subfolder or subdomain?
Great Question! As I'm sure many other SEO's here have mentioned.. you should absolutely be leveraging the sub-folder as opposed to the sub-domain as Google and Bing associate sub domains as separate entities with their own value metrics outside of the primary root. The only real time I would recommend a sub-domain over a sub-directory would be due to platform restrictions (Shopify, Wix, etc) where you don't have access to build an infrastructure to support nested content from multiple hosts. Definitely worth chatting about, however you shouldn't have any problems using the sub folder with any other host you'd like.Tyler McConvilleTM

How secure is Clarify.fm with content and recordings?
If you feel that Clarity isn’t secure enough for your needs, you’re welcome to use another platform. Also, if you have something that’s extremely private, your welcome to use another platform. Clarity is a great platform with great customer support. I’ve needed them numerous times and they’ve always been super responsive and helpful. I only wish they promoted the platform even more.
