Ok, just got a mail from my hosting company. And, i need a new dedi now. have a few proxy sites need basic managed server... any good suggestions? (need it fast! only 9 hrs before down time starts!!)
Get a VPS server if you are not sure that you need a dedicated . Also you will need to hire someone to manage it if you dont know how to do it .
I cant believe you said that!! really?! i was on server4sale - a layerdtech reseller. and the mail i got was directly from layered tech!! it said there was some spam done using my proxies... and thus that was against policy. but, now, i've moved to fully managed plan at server4sale... so they'd take care of it and i wont have to move! thanks guys for help.
I personally use theplanet.com, but several friends also recomend me softlayer.com ThePlanet has disksync backup service.
Whoa! why can't people stop loving the big brothers of hosting? Sometimes you have better luck with smaller hosting providers.
Try dediwebhost.com if you want to go for cheap. Premium Bandwidth... But no protection against bandwidth overages due to DDOS attacks.
unfortunately when it comes to dedicated servers , most of these "small hosting companies" are resellers of these "big hosting companies" have poor customer support and lower level of access to the servers .
