Better Hosting For My Proxy

    Well I started hosting a proxy on dreamhost and it was ok because I was only getting about 50-60 users a day, but it really caught on and last week i was getting about 200-300 users a day, and today (monday) it was at around 700 at noon, I know it wont be long before dreamhost shuts down the site for the high CPU usage.

    Well the thing is im looking for the best hosting I could get for under $50 a month, I need something that will let me give me enough CPU ussage and bandwith to handle my proxy page

    I have a vps with a2b2.com that costs $25 a month that comes with cPanel + whm, it was a very nice bargain for 384Ram and 1GB Bustable.

    Running 6 proxy sites there so far, and not a problem :-D Check out some of their specials over there at WHT

    Yeah Dreamhost will do so shortly. They normally do as soon as the load catches on.

    I use VPSByte to host my proxy http://myspacesquad.com and its worked pretty well for me with the speeds and everything

    I pay <$50 a month for really good service so u might want to look into vps byte (no im not affiliated with them lol)

    I'd say VPS or dedicated server would be best!
