My forum has a 2GB+ database, During peak time more than 500 users use the forum and it uses 70GB of bandwith which is increasing. After reading different reviews and searching i am willing to go for The Planet Dedicated server with following specifications, Do you think it can handle my forum well? Specifications - Intel Celeron 2.4GHz+ - 80GB Hard Drive - 1024 MB RAM - 1500 GB Bandwith - IPs 5 117$ Monthly Considering the reputation of theplanet.com do u think its a good deal and can handle my needs? and what if i want to start another blog on this server as well i am new so want help regarding this
CPUBenchmark.net a CELERON 2.4? Probably NOT with 500 people at one time http://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu_lookup.php?cpu=Intel+Celeron+2.40GHz take a look at that link You WONT get far with a celeron 2.4, rating is only 302, BTW: for a celeron 2.4 for $117 YOUR GETTING SCAMMED!!! platinumservermanagement.com if you want managing. You can get a decent P4 3.0 or even a Core2Duo around that price if you find a good deal A P4 would be better atleast Celerons are being unloaded as their becoming more available by hosts after P4's are getting cheap use a celeron for small website hosting nad a tooling server
i am not a fan of celeron when it come to database driven sites or huge sites. At least P4 is better with that price you could get a Pentium 4 with these specs (not from me) Intel P4 2.8GHz Single Core CPU 120GB Hard Drive 1024MB DDR-400 RAM Memory 4000GB Premium Bandwidth 5 ips cpanel/whm ($30/m value) 100 mbps port ($10/m value) Free Setup $119 Monthly total
Probably not. We had a forum: custom-made forum system no control panel P4 2.6 Ghz 1.5 GB RAM Most of the time, 500-600 users online, the server can handle it. But during the peak time (around 1000), it's quite slow. But what we are using is a custom-designed forum script, so your mileage may vary. Anyway, if you can provide the specification of your current server, we may give you more suggestions. And, if you have decided to go with ThePlanet, why not use their ready-to-go plans http://www.theplanet.com/dedicated-servers/ready-to-go-servers.asp , $129 P4 + 1GB If you haven't decided, you may compare more good plans at http://www.hostingmatrix.org/dedica...h+Staminus+FDCServers+LayeredTech+VolumeDrive
my budget is under 125$ not more than that and i want cpanel too so less choice for that any idea about burst.net?
also found this on netxservers.com P4 Max $139.00/mo • 2.4GHZ Intel P4 CPU • 3 IP addresses • 2GB Ram • CentOS/Fedora/FreeBSD • 500GB Hard Drive • 1000GB Bandwidth Monthly (1TB)
We actually have a special on those at the moment. If you need cPanel, I can offer the following: Intel P4 2.4GHZ CPU 2GB ram 80 GB hard drive (Add $55 per month for 500GB) CentOS/Fedora cPanel + WHM 11 1000GB Bandwidth Monthly (1TB) For $125 - PM me if this sounds good to you
Since your original question was whether or not theplanet is a good source, I am going to go ahead and say YES!! Sixty6 Hosting has been using theplanet for nearly 3 three years. Before theplanet, we used LayeredTech, but they did the dumbest thing that nobody (web host or not) would allow - they had a major outage one day, didn't even bother emailing their users and left all of us w/o an answer to questions coming in from all sides... Despite if their prices is high, their service is good and efficient.
http://www.versaweb.net/services/dedicated.htm you may have to choose the options to fit above specs. keep in mind that they are pro-rated. so if you sign up now, you will be charged for Until Jan 31st + Feb 28th even though monthly is $119/m i got my servers from them, fast deployment. also 3 hosting providers in here got from them as well and satisfied.
Intel P4 3Ghz, 1GB RAM, 80GB IDE with 1500GB Traffic + Cpanel/WHM 7 IP's 115 / Month. (Includes the cost of Cpanel/WHM) 5 More for Fantasco. We do not have a direct sale link to this server please PM me or Contact me At Cmodz-Hosting.com Located in Canada.
You need to cater for your future needs and I think a Celeron is not enough (and that price is too high for one).
