Aug 12, 2008I have developed website which will allow user to upload 1-2 photos and also allow to see other users photo and rate them. For this I have planned to go for VPS. I am also thinking of another alternative of using image hosting service, where I will keep all user photos on image hosting server and embed links given by image server in my webpage.
Now my question is.
1) Using image hosting is faster(respone time for each user) than VPS?
2) How exactly using image hosting works. when user request web page from my server, will my server go and fetch entire image from image server and then send final result to user brower?
Image Hosting
Jun 8, 2007where I can host images for my site. It will be thousands of smaller image like 5k - 30k. I am looking at free sites like imageshak. They say in their terms of service that I can host images for my site as long as I don't host all my images. So do you think that I could put like 20 thousand images on their site? These images would not get accessed too much so it won't slam their servers or anything.

Jun 29, 2008My goal is to block hotlinking of fullsize images and display a image when they attempt it... but allow clickable thumbnails to be shown. For some reason the following isn't working...
My htaccess looks like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /images

Image Hosting Site

View 4 Replies View RelatedImage Hosting (Germany?)
May 5, 2008We have an image hosting project, which uses ~5Tb/mo,
Currently we are running it on Pentium D 2,8GHz CPU (Dual Core), 1Gb RAM, 2×160Gb 7200rpm IDE HDD for ~170$/mo.
We don't need much better hardware, but need some good hdds (IDE sucks) + RAID.
Stats for 20.03.08-30.03.08 (10 days) - incoming: 35 Gb, outgoing: 1.3 Tb
So it's about ~4 Tb/mo. And we want 5-6Tb for a reserve.
Keyweb doesn't allow image hosting on their servers
Best choice is OVH, but I'm not in Germany..
Want To Build An Image Hosting
Dec 8, 2008i have plan to build a image hosting. I will build a site using script like this notinportland.com . I need some advise.
I trust i will get about 7k-10k page view everyday , may be 1k-2k unique visitor, just see image on my site, not direct link.
- Of course, i will start with shared hosting. But in future, do i need to updrage vps or server ?
- Does Image hosting make server load highly, using more resource on server?
- All images is legal and have adult content, of course sometime it will have some illegal image ( will be banned and deleted )? Can HPs will allow?

Architecture For An Image Hosting Server
Nov 17, 2008I own a social network generating over 50 million page views a month. Currently, I use only one massive server. I want to add in a new server just for image serving, as my current server is killing me with high bandwidth costs.
Server A runs the website and the logic
Server B runs runs the images
What would be a good architecture between the two servers, given that they ARE NOT IN THE SAME hosting infrastructure (SoftLayer is not a great option if you want alot of bandwidth)
If a user changes his photo on Server A which runs the site, somehow Server B must be notified and gets a hold of the new image..... what would be the most technically feasible and optimum way to achieve this?
Host For An Image Hosting Site
Sep 16, 2008What's the best thing to go with? Is it a VPS or a Dedi?
I am currently on a shared package with a US company. However, I'd like to bring the site into the UK hosting domain, and perhaps closer to where I live.
Location in the UK isn't important.
What's the best thing to go with? VPS or Dedi? Or to remain on my US shared?
Currently at about 35GB bandwidth for this month. And the site's only been open 2 months. So will need over 200GB a month with room to expand.
And about 50GB space minimum if possible... :-/

What Kind Of Load Does Image Hosting Put On A Server
Jun 22, 2009I have a dedicated that is oversized for the task (Q6600, 8gig RAM, Sata Raid-10 array), which is running a medium/small vBulletin site.
I have thought about providing free image hosting for the members, so I could have 100-300 people hosting sig images and other graphics on the server, which they in turn would link into forums and other places which could create quite a few requests for those graphics.
Is there anyway to quantify what type of load this static, image hosting would create?
The server currently is typically around .05 to .1 server load with nearly flatlined CPU's.
Windows Hosting That Allows File/Image Write Through Script
Mar 21, 2009I have a website built with asp .Net with MS SQL database. The website have some pages that uploads images and files in some folders.
I have tried GoDaddy shared Windows hosting. But they don't seem to allow file upload using a script.
Then I tried GoDaddy Virtual Dedicated. The tech guy told me MS SQL would be part of the hosting. Later I find he lied, there is no MS SQL as part of it.
I am trying to find an affordable hosting that has MS SQL and also allows file upload using script.

Nov 1, 2007I recently changed my small image hosting website to a dedicated server.
My previous server was a cPanel.
Current server is Directadmin.
I've restored the database and files, however I've noticed that the URL upload (Where you input the URL to a image file, and the script grabs the image and reuploads on the server) doesn't seem to work.
Half of the admin panel is distorted and missing half of the options.
Image Hosting - Same Server Or Different Server
May 17, 2007Purpose: I want to make my site load faster
Different Options Host images under the same domain - So no additional three way TCP handshake required.
Different subdomain for images - Browser pipelining can be utilized.
Different domain altogether - Browser pipelining can be utilize and also can avoid the site wide cookies with every request.
What is your opinion about this?

750 GB Hosting With 7500 GB Bandwidth ?
Jul 30, 2008I recently came across a banner which said 750 GB hostin and 7500 GB monthly bandwidth for only few bucks a month. I just want to ask what they are doing ? Is 750 GB hard drive available in market ? I don't see any when I goto purchase a dedicated from
dedicated server comapnies.
Earlier i thought it was a gimmick and then a friend of mine had hosting from there..when I logged into the panel then it also said: 750 Gb space etc.
So I am just curious how they are doing it ? Oh Also this is just for 1 client..so they might be hosting alot of clients on the same server. How they are doing it ? Whats the benefit ?
Makes me crazy..where we low end people will go ? Please tell me whats the catch in the plan?
Hosting With Un(limited) Bandwidth
Sep 16, 2008I've always used German hosts because they are much cheaper than my homeland Greek alternatives, the latency (70ms Germany vs 30ms Greece) is bearable.
Until recently I used Strato single cpu dedicated servers, which allowed me 2000gb at 100mb/s. Although I came close, I never actually reached that 2000gb allocation.
Ever since moving to 1und1 (to a quad core) the server's speed difference has attracted more visitors and pageviews. Now my bandwidth usage has gone to 3000gb per month and at peak it requires 20-30mb/s.
The problem is that 1und1 limits you to 10mb/s if you go over 1000gb, and then requires 'resetting' it every 250gb in order to get back to 100mb/s speed.
Does anyone know of a european host that offers truly unlimited bandwidth? Every time I hit the 10mb/s limit, my pageviews go down, users leave the site.
I've contemplated writing a simple heartbeat script that polls the control panel every 5 minutes and checks if the limit has been crossed, at which it will automatically reset it for me.
Web Hosting That Specializes In High Bandwidth
Sep 14, 2008I have a dedicated server currently hosted over by Aplus.NET
I have a 3000 GB Monthly Transfer limit and we have been going over this limit for the past few months. This has resulted in a large sum of overage fees.
I am looking to go to another hosting company that is just as good as Aplus.NET, if not better... with a better traffic rate. A friend told me about Choopa.com and I wanted to know how good of a company they were. What are some other top reliable hosting companies with premium servers and that specialize in unmetered bandwidth?
Low Space And Bandwidth, Reliable Hosting
Aug 30, 2008I am planning to create a website for my business. Its a bulk exports business and there will be very few visitors, less than 1000 a month. Also space needed should also not exceed 100 mb as I will only have some html information pages and a few pictures of my products.
However, the webhost should be reliable and have an easy to use interface as I am a beginner in this field (I hear cPanel is good). Also I have 2 more domains/businesses which I hope this same hosting should cover so it should have addon hosting.
Please recommend a reliable hosting provider with a good interface and price under $25 per year.
The registrar I will be using for the domain is Namecheap as I am planning to register a .in (India) domain name and very few have that option.

Creating Web Hosting Accounts/asigning Bandwidth
Jul 14, 2008The first thing i'm thinking of is cpanel but there's many others If you're runing a server with 5000gb traffic/bandwidth per month When you're creating hosting accounts, could you allow 5000gb in
each new account you're creating?
Like if you had unmetered, you'd put unmetered in every new account Considering no account would ever reach any way near their monthly allowance.
VPS, Windows, Torrent Hosting And Umetered Bandwidth?
Jul 17, 2007I've been looking for a VPS with windows, ability for torrents and unmetered bandwidth. I've tried leaseweb and I did not like their service one bit for support. i did not use their 10mb unmetered though. I then tried FDC and they were ok, but now I'm looking for something else that is more like FDC then anything. With FDC I was running windows 2003, unmetered bandwidth and was doing some torrents a bit. Not music or movies though, i hate 99.9% of the music out and don't bother with movies or software or any of that junk. my speed was fine at up to 100mb literally. downloading from the net to my FDC server would go as much as 80mb or so, peaking a bit faster for like half a second. Anyhow, the speed their was fine.
So I'm just looking for something else is all. The server I was on was a VDS and cost was for me $79. I had 512mb ram and 100gb drive space.

Choosing Hosting For Unpredictable Bandwidth Spike
Aug 11, 2008The company I work for is doing a promotional site that will probably involve a good chunk of progressive (as in, not quite the same as streaming) video -- basically my best guess is that everyone who views the site will likely download between 6 and 50 megabytes of video depending on how long they spend on the site, etc... I would imagine most people would be at the low end of that, maybe 12 megs, but it's hard to predict...
The tough spot is there will be TV and banner ads purchased for this promotion, and it's not entirely clear to us how good response will be. It could be 5,000 visitors in a day ... it could be 250,000 in a day... the response to various advertising campaigns our clients have done has just varied a lot...
So let's say we have 150,000 visitors downloading an average of 12.5 megs of video - that's about 2 terabytes of transfer in a month.
How much should we expect to pay for that kind of data transfer, and are there good providers that will scale with us? I don't think we mind sacrificing a few hundred bucks our first month only to find that traffic was low -- but if it's going to cost thousands to move 2-3 terabytes of data via a CDN, what are our other options? Does anyone scale well even if it's unpredictable? I realize we have to pay some sort of premium for that scalability or it's not really fair to the hosting provider.. but what price range should we be looking at?
