Package Features This is the first host I am to buy, I want to know a few things: 1. My site is in forum style, how many kbs is each thread? 2. How many visitors can I get each day with a 50 GB a month bandwidth host? I am buying it now, so please reply as soon as your can. Thank you VERY MUCH.
I get an average of 3,000 uniques per day and use about 30gb, 50gb is a lot, so don't worry about that.
Ok, thanks, I plan to get about 80,000-100,000 a day on a forum that is currently hosted on a freehost until I buy my paid hosting. Please visit the URL (this isn't advertising, this link will be shut down as soon as I transfer) and tell me by the size of my site, if I was to have 80,000-100,000 visitors on it each day, how much bandwidth I would need. I greatly thank you for your help, and I am sorry for posting in the wrong forum.
Site's like mine get big very fast, I know, my friends site get's 170,000 a day and he started about 1 1/2 years ago.
with 80,000-100,000 visits a day you should be able to get a high quality dedicated server or a host that doesn't try to look big by giving useless features such as $50 ovt advertising. But I think fryman will tell you that going from 3 visits a day to 80,000 or more probably isn't as easy as you think. But from experience I wouldn't recommend a host just based on those stats you've provided, I'd want to have solid reviews and 100% uptime.
You should just use that host you posted and wait untill you get those 100,000 thousand visitors to move on to a bigger thing. Off topic... hey, Iconrate, I seem to be your siamese twin at Google! We are stuck against each other for several keywords now
off topic as well... I see that, and don't worry you'll pass me soon as I've stopped using my coop weight for the next 2 months. Good luck to you.
I don't think either of us are suggesting to go with a "cheap" host. There are plenty of high quality hosts that offer a good price such as powweb who've been around a long time. Just don't base your purchase on gimmicks.
My friend was a gamer adict though, he plays 24/7, then he made or forum sites with like 8 of his friends (including me) and we saw his site grow, it sucked ballz at first, now it has 170,000 a day... He's was a newb too, now he's so currupt, he put ads EVERYWHERE
I've personally never used them but a friend who runs vega-nick.com (who I'm hosting now) used them for over 2 years with no complaints.
Re: PowWeb Yeah, I know, but I tried to call them, there Tech Support is down... They don't even have "Third World Tech Support" (lol) there closed for holidays, do they do this a lot? Do they have a 24/7 Tech Support? Do they close on every holiday?
