Buying Looking For A Host That Will Allow Me to Host Video (YouTube Type) Websites

Discussion in 'Web Hosting' started by Bojangles, Aug 23, 2010.

    I'm currently with a host that I've been with for quite some time, but they don't offer me everything I need in terms of hosting for video sites. In other words, I'm a good customer and usually stick with a good company. However, I'm wanting to move some of my domains and use them on a different server..

    Just post your offers here and I want a hosting company that has positive reviews. I'm not signing up with anyone that's just going to go bankrupt in a couple months. I've been through too much of that in the past. I just want a good host that I can count on.

    Here are SOME of my server requirements:

    GD Library 2 or higher.

    Mplayer + Mencoder

    Flv2tool

    Libogg + Libvorbis

    LAME MP3 Encoder

    Linux

    Apache

    MySQL

    PHP

    DirectAdmin or Cpanel

    Anything reasonable as far as bandwidth goes. I'm definitely looking for at least 10 gigs or more of diskspace.

    I recommend using a vps server instead of shared hosting. Because, when your site starts affecting the overall performance of the server, your host will automatically charge you more or suggests you an upgrade to vps.

    Thanks for the links and info, guys. I'll be sure to check out those links. As for the VPS recommendations, I might just go with one.

    It seems to me serverpoint services will be the best option for your needs.
    Low prices, quality services and they provide multimedia support on their services.
