Jul 16, 2007I have VPS account that is controlled my VM management, and VPS runs with WHM/cPanel.
When I login to VM control, it shows that I spent 9.5 Gb of traffic this month. When I check bandwidth in WHM it says 1.2 Gb!
Now, what do you think, which one is correct, and why there is so big difference?
HostGator - Unlimited Bandwidth?
Apr 5, 2008HostGator has a "SWAMP" package with unlimited bandwidth for $15/m. I find this hard to believe.
I wonder if they have some kind of a "within fair use" rule in their TOS?
Has anyone ever tried to use a huge amount of bandwidth on this package?
Unlimited Space And Bandwidth For 4$
Oct 1, 2009while looking for a host I've found that there are many hosts that offer unlimited web space and unlimited bandwidth for very little money like 4$ per month and there are also expensive web hosts that offer limited but big webspace and high bandwidth for much more money. What am I missing here? If a big website like yahoo decides to buy that 4$ per month host and move there, what would happen? Would the bandwidth really be enough and not slow down? If it wouldn't carry yahoo then why do they say it's unlimited? I'm confused because I've heard about people spending thousands of dollars for big websites every month.

Dec 15, 2008Unlimited space and bandwidth... totally lying?
I bought hosting with unlimited bandwidth, space, domain, etc. A few days ago I install script to sell photos. So I upload huge of photos and maybe eat their bandwidth and space. And today my account is deleted without any warning! I tried to ask this but no answer yet.
Is the Unlimited space and bandwidth is totally lying??? But why even hostgator selling the unlimited features?
Host That Doesn't Lie About Bandwidth Space?
Oct 8, 2008I am sure this thread was most likely created before but I haven't been able to find anything on the particular host I just had an issue with.
It goes like this.
I've been through web hosts ever since 1998. I've grown accustomed to web hosts deceiving their customers by listing '20 gigs of BW use, or 'Unlimited BW' (which we all know is BS) but for the past few years, I actually had a host who didn't lie about how much BW their customers got with the packages. I signed up for a 20 gig BW account with HostVector and I've used up to 19 gigs and they have never said a single word. I left them recently because they were bought out by Millennium Services and ever since then, its been a nightmare. Constant down time, tech support nowhere to be found. Sadly to say, I had to leave that host due to fact that their new owners have no clue what they are doing.
I found ELIEF and thought they looked promising. I signed up for the package that listed 20 gigs of BW, now at first I thought okay.. this may be fishy, but if this was a flake, they would have specified that customers really won't get 20 gigs of BW.
Regardless, I trusted them the way I trusted HostVector. Seeing how I am a musician, I uploaded a 80MB pack and sent it to some friends to download and not even a 12 hours later. My account was suspended because it apparently caused their server to crash?
I checked the stats and only 68 users downloaded that 80MB file.
This is beyond aggravating. I know there are countless web hosts who lie about this type of stuff but why cant at least specify someplace on their page a more detailed info about bandwidth usage? Maybe put an asterisks next to the BW section like some hosts do and explain that what is listed there is not the reality.
So here I am, my domain is suspended. My fans/listeners/friends are wondering what happened and I am sitting here angered beyond belief because I thought this type of lying was something that hosts stopped doing in the late 90s.
Any recommendation guys? Does an honest web host who actually offers the same amount of BW they list on their hosting packages, exist anywhere?
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.
Need 1000GB Disk Space/200TB Bandwidth?
Aug 28, 2008OK so I've been in the hosting industry a very long time now and I have noticed that overselling has got more and more crazy over time. 7 years ago, 2GB of disk and 10GB bandwidth was considered overselling. Today, its common to see offers at 1000GB/1000TB.
So my question, to all you looking for web hosting, do you really think you will need all that space and bandwidth?
I'm going to let you in on a little secret. (Some might hate me for this!) Out of all my customers, 99% use less than 1GB disk and 5GB transfer.
Every hosting provider out there knows this, and will tack on a bunch of 0s to their offer to make it look more enticing . The thing is, if you aren't using the space, you aren't getting any extra value. If you come even close to the amount they offer, I am willing to bet you will be suspended faster than you can blink. This advertising tactic is very misleading and a lot of newcomers base their decision off the meaningless numbers they see. <<Snip>>
Bloggers - Think again if you believe you need anything more than 1GB of space. You could type blog posts until you are blue in the face before you come close to using 1GB(unless you incorporate a lot of videos and images)
Forum owners - Considering most forums are text based, forums use hardly any bandwidth. If you run a highly active forum, eventually you will start consuming decent amounts of disk space. However, there is no way that a shared host would allow such a forum to exist on the servers. You will be shut down before you use even a fraction of that 100gb/1000tb.
What should you consider than? If you see a host offering such impossible amounts of resources for an even more impossible price, look elsewhere. If you want a decent service, look to spend $5-10/m for a reasonable amount of disk space and bandwidth.

How Much Disk Space And Bandwidth For Single Wordpress Blog
Jun 2, 2008how much disk space and bandwidth would be needed to run a single Wordpress blog. I'm not a popular name, so I doubt I will have too many viewers besides my closest friends. In addition, I tend to make layouts which are a "teensy-bit" graphic-heavy :p

UK Web Hosting 500MB Space 1GB Bandwidth Existing .org.uk Domain
May 3, 2008I'm the webmaster for a church website: stpetersbraunstone.org.uk and our domain & hosting renewal is coming up, so I'm looking to see if there's a better deal.
We're with namehog.net (and have been for 2 years with no problems at all) on their Professional package. The renewal fees are 105GBP (web hosting) + 5.90GBP (domain name) + 17.5pc VAT to cover the next 2 years, which comes to 130.31GBP.
The site is powered by WordPress, so PHP and MySQL are needed. And we upload lots of photos, so need at least 250MB webspace I'd have thought. So far, our highest monthly bandwidth usage has been under 800Mb, and our visitor numbers are increasing and our highest monthly figure so far was 401.
Any recommendations gratefully received. There seems to be many different companies out there who offer what I want, so I'm after some personal recommendations please.
I've already used this site to discount streamline.net due to bad reviews.
I'm looking at fuzioned.com and redfoxhosting.co.uk - any thoughts?
I've also come across no-wires.co.uk - has anyone had any good or bad experiences with them?
And yes, I have submitted my details to the "request quote" thing.
Webmin Creating Folder/user With Space And Bandwidth Quota
Jun 14, 2008how can i create directories in my (public_html / htdocs folder) that have disk space and traffic quota?
i activated the disk quota to the native linux file system and i tried to create a user but i could not put this user in any folder in the public_html (i dont know how to do this) also there is no option to create bandwidth quota..
one more detail is that the folders need to be protected with login and password because people may try to enter this folders (e.g. www.mydomain.com/protectedfolder)
all this using webmin or another free good script.
Fast Webhost, Little Disk Space, With Php, Mysql, Phpmyadmin, And Alot Of Bandwidth
Apr 1, 2008The most important requirement is that the webhost must be fast. It must have alot of bandwidth.
The disc space is not so important. 200 MB would be enough.
It must have PHP, MySQL and phpmyadmin installed.
Must be accesable through FTP.
There are offcourse more requirements. But the main thing is that i want it to be fast.
My pages will be only informative and exists of just mainly text and an image every now and then.
Do you know any fast webhosts that is good to handle websites with large amounts of visitors?
I'm looking for something around 6 dollars per month.
I dont know much about webhosting at all, so i'd appreciate any help i can get
Also i see websites where you can register a domain. But the prices vary, isn't a domain just a domain? What makes this price difference?

Web Space Storage Or Get Additional Space From Another Server
Oct 14, 2008im running out of space on one of my sites but i have more then plenty of data transfer.
Unfortunately my hosting packaged it weird where they provide not enough hd space. Im trying to figure out is there a way where i can use another server or hosting company that can provide space only and use their servers just for space?
i think amazon.com offered this but wasnt sure how exactly this works.

Huge File To Transfer
Jul 8, 2009Just moved to a new server, and of course, 10GB doesn't seem that large for a server but for some reason wget is not able to handle the transfer of that backup for me... it transfers about 1MB then tells me "successful transfer..."
The old server is using cPanel, and the new server is just a plain old server that I haven't loaded up yet.
how I can get this full backup over to the new server?
Huge Apache Logs
Feb 3, 2008I'm sure this question has been asked before, but I'm looking for a nice and simply way of breaking up log files into smaller chunks.
I've been running apache2 on a VPS for the past few months and one of the access.log files is now 700mb big... bit of a waste of space. I'm currently just doing:
CustomLog /var/www/logs/domain.com/access.log combined
ErrorLog /var/www/logs/domain.com/error.log
In my apache config.
Is there any easy way of telling apache to just keep the last week or months worth of logs?
Apache2 Error Log Huge

Mod_security .. Huge Database Log
Mar 24, 2008I've been using mod_security for a long time, but apparently I accidentally enabled some kind of log or something that uses mysql. I don't remember it being there before.. but the point is; the database is like 145100k!
Which is HUGE for a database..
How can I disable this stupid log?
Huge INBOX File
Jun 23, 2008I had several user accounts that were pushing their quota. I was digging around in SSH and found that the INBOX file in /home/username/mail was huge even though the user does not keep messages on the server. I deleted this file to free up space and all seems file. A couple seconds later I did check and the file was recreated with new incoming mail.
My question is how do I keep this file from growing out of control? One of the users I had for almost 2 years had an INBOX file of almost 2GB!

Logwatch Huge Report
Oct 29, 2007I have been receivig a huge logwatch report, seems that logwatch is not parsing the /var/log/secure file, but sending the log entries instead of any resume of it. I got thousands of lines like

MySQL With Huge Database
Nov 26, 2007ways to improve the database performance in the situation when I have to modify a large table (several million rows), by e.g. adding a column. Currently this would take several hours which is too slow. The bottleneck is disk I/O. I am considering either partitioning the table over several innodb files on several disks, or going to a RAID-5 or RAID-10, it this will give me better write performance.
The database is 130GB large, and the problem table (which I make period changes to) is the largest table on the server. I cannot have downtime of 3 hours each time I make a change and adding blank fields (to be used later, when a new field is needed) is not an option.
Each time I add a column, the cpu goes into high (80%) io wait state for about 3 hours.
I have a hack which would allow me to split the large table into multiple smaller tables based on some criteria (for example, forumID or such). Here are a couple of things but would like to know which is best, and am open to new ideas. The ideas so far:
1. Split the table into 3 or 5 smaller tables each on it's own disk. The disk IO would then not be so bad, and it might only take 1 hour to perform the table change. But this might not work because the changes to the database (as in adding a column) might be serial, meaning only 1 disk is being written to at a time. (Then again, maybe it will work if I launch 3 different scripts, one to update each table at once).
2. Do RAID 5 or 10, and have 3 or 5 disks. This again might not help at all because of the above issue with MySQL writing serially.
I am using latest MySQL 5.0.45 with InnoDB engine on Debian etch Linux

So I am selling almost all my websites to fund this huge project. I will also be flipping proxies from time to time to fund the project even more. This will be a year long project and will be my full time job sooner or later. My goal is to have 1,000 proxy sites.
