I make a site about news and each article have 1-3 images.my host on shared account.so should i use my image upload to photobucket better than to my host for reduce my resource and bandwidth?i must do that for bigger site after. Do you tell me about that? Thanks!
and if i upload to my server then it can make server over load?shared host on gator can contain 1 site with how many visit/day?
if you have shared hsoting with them these are your limit a) Use 25% or more of system resources for longer then 90 seconds. There are numerous activities that could cause such problems; these include: CGI scripts, FTP, PHP, HTTP, etc. check the hostgator for their Terms of Service
if you own a dedicated server it will be good to host with your own hosting. otherwise if the traffic goes it will be difficult to maintain that in a shared hosting so tinypic , photobucket etc sites are better option in that case
if you don't login to photobucket 90day, your acc will be deactive :-S . Try to upload image into your host and backup it in your PC or Laptop. Free acc in photobucket have 5GB BW only, It doesn't enough if your site grow up.
but account pro go with ulimited bw?i think it' okie?i must login to pb to post image so i don't care pb deactive my acc
If you want a premium account, flickr is better than photobucket. I know some NY fashion photographers put thousands of their UHQ photos and HD videos in flickr pro acct.
As you are getting started with your web site I do not think you should be in a hurry and you do not need such big web hosting account at the first time I recommend you start with the cheapest and the smallest solution.
Yes you should use it. But in the same time you should host the picture at other site too such as imageshack coz you don't know when the photo bucket will be offline.
i think pb is big site...so their server is strong...so % they offline is very litte.Thanks.I between pb and flick...flick don't allow upload from url.that not good.hix
