Looking For Powerful Webhosting

    I have a game mobster-law.com which will be getting about 300 unique players a day. Being a game it has a lot of Php/Mysql involved which causes slower shared hosting to cause lag and crashes to the game. The space and bandwidth requirement are pretty basic. About 2GB space and 50GB Bandwidth will be sufficient. The requirement i am looking for though is that the servers should be able to handle a large amount of php and sql. My budget is 10$ a month for a reliable, fast and powerful hosting. Suggestion to a good webhost are also welcome if the one your mentioning is not your own

    Have a look at the Tech Entrance shared hosting plans. They fit your budget and we only use 8 core Xeon servers for our hosting. 30 day money back guarantee if your not satisfied with our hosting quality.

    The last game i had overshot the default maximum and threw error. I have another game on a VPS with 1 GB+ RAM and what not but this is new and i need a good option where i can upgrade easily. I dont mind shared hosting as long as they can handle heavy loads for small times

    I think sooner or later, your shared hosting plan will demand you to upgrade. I suggest you get a VPS plan that can accommodate your needs. Shared hosting is best for basic website that doesn't require that much database connections.

    We don't try to stack a ton of clients on our servers. If the server in question is starting to get high loads, we either move some accounts to another server with less loads or setup a new one. As I've said before we only use 8 core Xeon servers (dual quad-core harpertowns @ 2.33 Ghz) and each server has 8GB of ram and hard drives are in raid 1 for reliability.

    How many clients do you have on an average on each of these servers?

    I added up all my shared hosting clients and divided by the number of servers and it came out to 29.

    these are round based so there will be real good loads during one hour twice a week or so. And i have had pms telling me about VPS with 256mb guarenteed ram with the 5GB storage and unlimited bandwidth for 10$ !!! Seems more than any normal shared hosting can offer but at the same price. I am planning to go with a beginer VPS then upgrade when required. Thanks and interested to hear more such offers
