    I would think first before doing anything rash. Digg traffic can get very crazy. I suggest you find a host that has eAccelerator or lightspeed.

    One of my friend use a simple way to handle digg effect, he create a portal page, which will not connect to DB, just read a simple file, where contains the concurrent online user number.

    If the number is small, the portal will redirect users to the real content. If the number is big, just tell user there are too many users, and refresh every 30 seconds.

    Using the 100 GB specification, I would suggest the cPanel Business Hosting Plan:
    Give us a call at 1(888)229-3185 if you have any questions or need any assistance with getting your website setup!

    Unless on an empy ovtal core the server will slow down very bad. Last time it happened to me the server went to 80 load on a wordpress. But that wordpress didn't ahve any wp-cache installed which i suggest you do.

    Ppl commin here and bs you that "me me me... i can do it..." either don't have any idea what it is or are just resellers looking for a quick buck.

    I suggest you take a look at clustered hosting as they are more scalable. A very good chice would be imountain.com. Check them out.

    Can I ask your method offering $100/yr versus $8/mo? $8x12 = $96.

    It looks as Doreo is able to handle Digg traffic. It is written from one of their customer which site have survived Digg effect.


    dailyblogtips.com/doreo-hosting/


    So far i know only a couple sharing servers are able to survive Digg effect.
    Most of them use light speed technologies (Doreo too) and other one apart from Doreo are Crucial web hosting (Split-Shared web hosting) and MediaLayer (light speed).
    All 3 of them are much expensive than the rest but you may be sure that your site will not negative performance on server and that you will survive Digg effect.

    You need to tell your calculator to quite rounding off! $100/12 is $8.334

    We have a new server that can handle that load. Will do it for $20/month.
    TVGHosting has been in business since 2003, we are not going anywhere!

    Email sales [at] tvghosting dot com for a setup link or PM me.
