I am new here and hope somebody can give me a few hints. I am soon launching a website with many hours of video and maybe many visitors will come. After a few weeks maybe 10.000 daily visitors watching 10-20 minutes of videos, 200GB daily transfer and growing to ... who knows. It is NOT adult site. Do you know good webhosts for me? I have been recommended Wordpress and c-panel to go with the site. Thank you! Michael
These web hosts are called media content hosts. I think if you do some search for this kind of web hosting you will be able to find a lot of companies offering that.
hostgator would suspend that faster than you can blink. What the OP wants can only be hosted on a dedicated server, not on shared hosting or VPS. And in order to give out 200GB bandwidth per day it would need to be on a 1Gbps connection.
thank you for all your inputs, but actually I would like to have specific suggestions, not "try to google abc .."
For cheap solution, look for atom server and install ffmpeg on it yourself. Or, you can just go to webhostingtalk.com and look for an offer there.
I continued here: webhostingtalk . com/showthread.php?t=932403 (I am not yet allowed to make URLs here) You will get some more info on my demands. Michael
I agree, if your hosting needs require that much bandwidth and server resources then one would need start out at least with a VPS.
