10 million visitors per month

[tonim]

10 000 000 uniques. ! unique = 1 page view. Site is ASP.NET 2.0 and SQL
Server 2005. 1 visit is 3-5 database access (smal number of fields with
datareader). No pictures or other multimedia, only text.

Can I run this on some good shared hosting like www.re-invent.com or
www.hostinguk.net or I need to VPS for this site?

In order to utilise a shared hosting supplier such as those mentioned, it
would be a good idea to reduce the amount of computational effort required
for your asp.net site.

Such hosting providers can cap the amount of CPU usage allowed, along with
the amount of bandwidth provided.

In order to limit the first, try to employ output caching:
