MY frist question is what OS are you going with? MS or LX? If you are going with MS and IIs stopping hackers is done threw the IIS no text files or permissions on directories etc. Im using whoson.com and they work great for stopping the hackers as I can set the software to auto block someone from iis after a certain amount of hack attempts. But the software is in the 300 range. as far as a LX box make sure you get some extra support on the box from the hosting company if you are not up to speed with it. Its totaly 180 degrees differant then MS and that was the point of making that OS. One that works 99% of the time.
Nice thing about ccbill and their payment systems for merchants is for a linux box after you set up your pages and payment options everything is downloaded in a zipped folder which all you have to do is upload it and your done. I also heard Paycom.net is good also. But from my experience most customers know about ccbill and feel safe with them. It's like telling a person that graigslist is a good place to look for things but when they get their you know odds are they will go right back to ebay.
I'm not really sure who you are and I'm not sure how much experence you have doing this but heres some advice from a paysite owner that I wish I had before I started. And please dont take this as I'm jumping you. If you are somewhat new to this business then I would say be very careful. Getting American payment processors is not that easy these days. Banking is always and issue.
"Don't start a paysite till you master getting traffic, dont start a camsite till you mastered everything."
Hope this helps.
