So as I mentioned in the title I need a hosting for a PICTURE/VIDEO/SOUND RATING website. If I understand correctly I take it that I will have high bandwidth usage from the image/videos/sound and SQL will be working pretty intensive too. Please don't just bombard me with affiliate links and all kinds of hostings. Im looking for a hosting purely for this project so if you have examples of similar projects hosted then show me so I can see how fast it runs. Looking forward to your opinions/offers/comments
We would definitely offer you the best hosting services in regards to your requirement and budget. However, i would strongly suggest that you should go in for a Dedicated server or a Virtual Private Server. As this would definitely match hosting that you are looking for. This would also be added advantage in the long run.
I think you would be better off with a VPS or a dedicated server as your site would have high bandwidth usage and use more server resources which would be very limited on a shared server.
Thanks for the replies guys but its a new site so I think VPS or dedicated server is a bit early, no? In any case I just got some hosting from bizoppz - am very happy up to now!! (http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=236135). For future reference: What is the difference between VPS and dedicated server? and how much would I be looking at spending (+/-)?
Thanks ariful but as my previous post states, Ive already found a hosting and 186GB space sounds like you werent reading my post... Its a new site!
VPS is basically a dedicated split between 2-5 people on the same server. If I am not mistaken, you stil get root access for your section of the server.
