I use www.50free.com , which provides 50MB and half a gig of bandwidth per month which is pretty cool for £0. Although their spelling really leaves something to be desired, it's a good service with hardly any downtime.
No problem. I would ask you to say I referred you, but someone else did and he didn't give me anything free or anything cool, so whatever . And I believe it's in Switzerland, IIRC .
I use geahost.com. Starter package is £10 a year 250mb space and 5GB transfer a month. Site is currently still under development though.
Check out THESE Insane prices For $1a month, you get: 100 Mb Space, 1,500 MB bandwith and Features galore And their highest price is $10 a month, which includes: 4,000 MB of space, 60,000 MB of bandwidth and all the features http://www.diginetstudios.com/plans.php Check it out!!!!
advertising is not allowed! Also a whois check finds your hosting 254 websites on the same server your site is on. 150 is normally the max for good hosts. maybe its just me though being too picky. mod please sort EDIT**** Sorry maybe your not a sales man for then or getting some money off your hosting I should read posts more
yeah sorry I was tired. Sorry WizardLock its just you seemed abit to excited about the hosts prices. I found out how many sites are hosted on that server by using http://www.whois.sc Thats the address Mr T it shows alot of interesting things
I think the way it works it out is by seeing how many are on the IP number. although my hosting company is on its own IP but it still shows all the sites something clever is going on me things
Surely though if the hosting company is large then they will have multiple servers with different ip's? Im pretty sure the number of sites is only 20 on mine because i know the guy who runs it and hes just leased a dedicated server. Out of the 20 sites though theirs only about 3 large ones
yep your right big hosting companies have many servers. The number of sites on a server can tell you if there overloading the server. E.g. putting to many sites on one server slowing it down with lack of resources etcetc. Thats what alot of the "cheaper" hosting companies do. richman Unmetered FTP on that site? so I could be as much data as I wanted on FTP? lol I laugh at some hosting companies and there overselling ways.
um...hosting it yourself is pretty damn easy. doesnt sound like your doing too much, so if you spend maybe an hour reading this article and doing what it says, you have yourself your own webserver. For free. Then go to www.no-ip.com and you get your own ip. I run my site from my house. Has plenty of load, but even my cable connection can handle it.
Assuming that by doing so you are not going to be violating Terms of Usage/Service set by your ISP which you have agreed to
RTT very true although if your getting to the amount of useage for it to pop up with them then your looking into a lease line or data center mookie yeah I agree but that site says "unmetered ftp" not "unmetered ftp accounts" oh the fun we could all have with unmetered ftp
Sorry to clutter the thread with replies (i didnt read all the way through) I'm not sure how you can say by looking at how many websites a server is hosting whether or not it is overloaded. Also, server boxes usually come with a number of IPs assigned to them, so basing what you judge as the number of sites hosted from just one IP addr on one box only adds to the inaccuracy! For all you (anyone) knows the server could be an absolute beast, dual or even quad xeons and 4gb of physical RAM, which arguably could take one hell of a lot of traffic. I'd also bet that big companies load up lots of sites onto beefy servers, "overselling" as you'd put it just like the smaller companies do. Just because a company is "big" doesn't mean it's suddenly going to only put say 20 sites max onto a box. UK2 ring any bells? Just wanted to add my thoughts, not having a go
yeah I argree with what your saying. I'm not sure how it works it out. All I was trying to say is that you have to watch out for these cheaper companies offering unlimited or stupidbly high bandwidth. I don't want people to sign up to a company have them take there money for the year and not be there in 3 months. My mate did and he was with them for 3 days. I found it funny but he had haven't off be able to get his money back then . You bring up servers Quad Vendor: GenuineIntel Name: Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.80GHz speed: 2799.299 MHz cache size: 512 KB
