Need a good proxy host or portion of your dedicated server

    I have 3 very popular proxies and school has started again bringing an unbelievable amount of traffic which is killing the shared host Im on, Godaddy hasnt said anything yet but Id feel better with my proxies on a different server than mine and all the PA sponsored blogs.

    Traffic could hit combined >1000 uniques a day so Im looking for a pretty good set-up and/or one thats optimized to handle a large load.

    Bandwidth wise the proxies could use 250-500gb/month.

    The only features I need are full ftp access and support for three domains, also an online file manager would be nice but its not mandatory.

    Id like to pay 20 for the first month and if you can keep my sites at > 97% uptime the entire month, Id be willing to pay up to 50/month depending on experience

    If you have a host/server yourself or know of a good one that fits my requirements please reply here or shoot me a pm or email.

    You can subscribe for our Mega Plan for the first month and if you're satisfied, we can do custom plans for you. Feel free to visit www.cloakhost.com and give us a try; you won't be disappointed.

    Thanks :)

    what about a VPS package that could easily handle your requirements and future needs? The cost is a bit more than your proposed budget though.

    I forgot to mention, I am not looking for resellers or anyone who oversells their server.

    @agnivo007: You dont provide near enough bandwidth and I expect my proxies to be "mega", sorry
    @rllunzman: no thank you, I really prefer someone with their own dedicated because Id rather not deal with server admin issues.
    @extinct:maybe

    @mia: I am interested probally in that top bargain box but I very simply know absolutely nothing about server administration. Would the server be pre-loaded with software mainly an OS and some sort of control panel with the above mentioned features.

    Well, I said you can try out our mega plan for first month and we can do custom packages for you within your budget... :)

    Why not try us for a month? Yes, at the end of the day, it's completely your choice...

    Regarding bandwidth (also mentioned on our website) : Control panels are not known to count incoming bandwidth used up for fetching webpages through your proxies, so if you have 50GB allocation, usually total bandwidth you get is more than 100GB.

    We are not a reseller. We own and operate our own facility and have been doing so for over 10 years.

    Well the servers we sell at HostDrive are plain jane, you know what you are doing with linux servers... They come with linux, typically Fedora and we can install webmin.

    If you need a control panel, you might want to look at something from our selection here: http://hostinglizard.com/dedicatedservers.php
