that's not too bad, £70 a month seems to be the going rate, but i suppose a lot depends on bandwidth useage as to what package to go for.. i run a forum at the moment on the back of another site & it costs me £120 per year for the hosting, but i'm running that on the back of a reseller package because it's cheaper for me to pay for a reseller than seperate pay fees to a host for each individual site i run / own.
I have seen Linux/Unix cPanel hosting packages with 150gb limits, 10gb webspace, multiple domain parking for as low as £50 a year which for most forums should be ample as a starting platform, but then i have seen/known some people who are paying £70 a year just to host a 10 page site on an account that is no bigger than the "free" webspace you get with your ISP that can only run basic HTML & store a few images.
