Start small. Setup a server on Amazon EC2 or a similar cloud service. Setup your application on that and see what type of load your server will be facing. As your website gets popular, you will need to add more server instances, setup load balancing, setup multiple database servers etc. Store your files on S3 (if you are using Amazon EC2).
