Hi all, I've been replying to the threads here in this subforum, now it's your turn to help me out Currently, I own 2 phproxy sites which are getting a bit of traffic. I decided to increase the number of proxy sites to 5 in this phase and form a network. If proved successful, I'd make it to 10 sites later. The 2 proxies are currently running off a VPS and creating new ones means opting for a dedi box. So, I hunted for good deals and finalised on the following box as follows: Priced below $50/month and reviews for the provider has been confirmed to be great. (don't ask me the details regarding price or provider) What I need to know for you all : (suggestions,comments,feedback) 1. Is the deal good enough for my requirements? 2. Plesk 8 : is it resource hungry, what are your thoughts? 3. Should I use the free Plesk 8 or no control panel (to save resources if Plesk uses a lot of it)? 4. I like latest versions of apache (2.2.4), php(5.2.3). Does Plesk allow server building like WHM ? or is it sort of detached and independent of server software? 5. I prefer CentOS. Which version does Plesk best support if I use it? 6. Do you think I can easily cover up server costs and make profits soon through these proxies? FYI : I've rarely used plesk befoe (mostly on client's hosting accounts)...so people with Plesk experience or using them on their dedi boxes are welcome to make additional comments. Good replies will be awarded with green rep. Thanks.
Plesk is very easy to use and in my opinion more secure than cPanel. It's difficult to use when you setup SSL.
