how securely are the servers set up?
how many users per server?
how is cpu/memory/mysql/bandwidth capped, or not?

how much traffic do you expect?
what kind of traffic - download, mysql...etc.?

probably best to find a recommended host, send them details of your sites and ask them what they recommend
