A lot of times security exploits not only happen due to faulty scripts or web pages, but because of web hosting providers not keeping up to date with security patches related to the operating systems that your hosting is one. You need to be very aware of this when you are are choosing a hosting provider. Be sure to check how long the company has been in business and try to get some feedback from other users on how responsive they are when issues arise. You can often get this type of information by simply doing a google search using the hosting provider and see what comes up or even check out web hosting unleased. They have over 5000 user reviews of various hosting providers and the reviews keep on growing. If you see feedback from forums, go and join the forum and ask questions. You will often get the best feedback by talking to people who use the provider.

You need to not just look at the cost of the hosting but the support and backing they are going to give to you.
