if you know any premium VPS hosts.
Their price on the *Smallest Package* must be around $50 - $70.
I will not consider any companies that carry $20.00 VPS packages.
I want a rock solid VPS.
No Mickey Mouse, Dollar hosting for me.
What I want:
Linux,
C-panel or Hsphere
Fantastic - not important
Disk space - not important (finding a good host is more important. I can always buy more disk space)
Can I use this edition for hosting on dedicated server, and how does it compare to the enterprise edition ? Can it be used with hosting? The web edition sucks as I can not install ms sql on it, so it is useless. Anyone use sbs server to host his website, because most of the link i read never mention it for hosting, and only for print sharing/ filesharing/ business applications, but where is it's use for hosting?
So what do you think ? IO looked at its infor and it did not provide much?
I've been looking everywhere for a half decent, affordable, windows web hosting company. Everyone has CPanel/Linux, and I'm looking for Plesk + Windows. I'm gonna be buying a dedi soon that will run on windows, but I want some shared hosting too.
If you could refer me to some decent hosts, that would be great (and I hate oversellers)
I need to ask, what's best company of Secuity and Safe servers.
So I hope any one can answer my seeking.
Me and a friend want to buy a really cheap server. We're kind of tired of buying hosting of people, VPS, dedi even if the price is really cheap.
For once we'd just like a little server ourself. We are located in the UK.
We're hoping to spend max £110. So far we ain't been able to get a good deal for that much.
(tried ebay)
To make a pc - it would cost us more than that pricewise. To buy an old one and do few upgrades.. it would still cost us a bomb.
Do you know where I can purchase cheap pre-built webservers direct? I can't seem to find any websites. There mostly £200+
Also I'm hoping to run windows platform (mainly due to near null experiance with Linux), what simple software can I install to get:
FTP
Webpages//PHP
DNS
running? (other than apache which still look's complex).
My main problem is where to buy a cheap server.
Are there any FutureHosting customers out there (Dallas Datacenter) who wouldn't mind PM'ing me their domains to test SMTP response time tomorrow? I have a server with them that is showing intermittent SMTP timeouts and response time spikes close to 20 seconds and I am trying to figure out if it is something on my node or the network.
I don't need anything special other than a domain name -- I won't be pushing email through the server just need to know how quickly the SMTP service provides a welcome message and responds to a HELO command. I will share any reports I produce with you.
The spikes are just occuring during business hours and support is having difficult tracking down the issue.
I am a staff member at Markee Dragon (www.markeedragon.com), a large gaming targeted forum. We have a slight dilemma. We are looking for ways to stop as many proxies as possible from entering the website. We don't want the hassle of single IP banning and are looking for something somewhat automated. From my experience there is not much you can do with proxies but hopefully I am wrong and someone knows a solution to this.
The reason we are trying to have proxies blocked is because of the nature of the website.
We are a trading site and scamming has given Markee Dragon somewhat of a bad name and we are trying to combat against that. Most of the scammers who are banned just evade the bans through proxies.
What is the exact meaning of Premium Bandwidth? Some hosts advertise it. Is it meaning 100Mbps or something? Or an advertising gimmick? I searched WHT but I just get a million references to it w/o explanation
Thanks
I have seen this term on several threads. What is Premium hosting? Is it a higher end shared hosting or is it something totally different?
View 14 Replies View RelatedWhat is this premium bandwidth that some providers advertise. What is premium in bytes transfering here and there.
View 4 Replies View RelatedSeems like some of the more premium colo's out there will only do full racks or higher. And to me, "premium" are companies like equinix, savvis, and iland.
We are coming from managed servers at Rackspace and are used to a pretty awesome support level. While reliability and uptime are the most important to us we also need a great service level.
Anyone have any recommendations on any Colo's that provide that sort of premium bandwidth, data center and service but also does half-racks?
Is that much - 32 GB Premium Server Memory?
Simplehelix.com offers that in their plans and I wonder if it's enough for high-intensive web sites.
In your opinion do you believe there is a market for a very high end VPS solution?
Something like:
Equal Share CPU (3.0GHz)
3GB Ram reserved
8GB burst
250GB storage (15K drives)
3000GB bandwidth transfer
The thing that makes this “Ultra Premium” would be the host server resource guarantee.
Host server would be undersold in memory, making the possibility of burst memory availability very high.
Max of 8 shares, no host server would ever run more than 8VMs
Each VM would have an affinity for a particular CPU core, at a 1:1 ratio.
All resources are allocated from the beginning.
Host server spec’s would read something like this
2 x 3.0 5450 Xeon
32GB Fully Buffered memory
6x Seagate 15K 450 SAS drives in RAID5 array.
Gigabit uplink
Does anyone know of a premium business web host? I'm looking for shared linux hosting, but not from some unreliable "budget" provider. I was considering MediaTemple, but discovered that they aren't very reliable after reading many reviews. Now the only provider left on my list is LiquidWeb. Does anyone else have any good ideas?
- Must be under $40/month (that's a lot for shared hosting)
- I don't need that much space or bandwidth (at LEAST 3-5 GB space and 150GB bandwidth) <- Scratch that, at least 60GB bandwidth
I am currently working on a site which has a series of tutorials on (videos, pdfs and html content.) I have not actually written a line of code for the site yet, as I want to make sure that I can provide great content as well as a nice site.
Anyway the idea is that users land on my site, can view the free tutorials without having to sign up. However to access other tutorials, users are required to sign up and pay a (very small) premium membership. The tutorials are to be sold per tutorial, so a user can buy access to one at a time.
eg
User buys tutorials for topic 'apples' and user then has unlimited access to the entire 'apples' package - videos, pdfs etc.
If the user then decides to purchase the topic 'pears' they then also have unlimited access to that topic.
As well as providing the content, I would also like to provide a forum. Ideally users would have a single sign up for the site, so they can then buy topics and use the forum. It would also be slicker if the user only had one log-in form for the whole site.
I have been thinking about ways of implementing this and have come up with the following:
1) Use a static site for some simple static pages - eg about us, home, contact us etc. and just link from the main site to the forum. In the forum i could have restricted access to certain sub-forums and just manually change the access once i receive payments [unless there is a simple way to automate this?]
2) Use a CMS which has forum module and a restricted access module
Ideally I would like to have all of the processes automated and use the CMS, but is there any other methods that people can suggest? Also can anyone recommend a CMS with these abilities? I have looked at Joomla, and have seen that it has a module for the payment part, but it looks like a lot of mucking around to get the forum integrated properly.
Does anyone know if you can set up a forum software which you can just point to a database where it will get the user information that it needs for a member?
Feel free to post any thoughts on my set up, I read a couple of posts below that a guy is looking to do a similar thing, but don't worry my content is very specific and is nothing to do with computers.
I cannot get IIS to work on Vista Home Premium.
I have installed it as per instructions, turned off firewall etc
It appears to be installed but when I try [url]I just get the "internet explorer cannot display the webpage" page
Im a webdesigner so when looking for hosting i try to find one that is simple to manage, hardware powerful, lots of ready to install scripts and a beautiful webmail like Atmail or Zimbra.
So im looking for a powerful / quality high end "shared" hosting package.
Until now i have looked at:
- Mediatemple
(as @mail, exelent support but slow in Europe)
- Mosso
(is always good to be powered by rackspace but i think that the cloud hosting concept is still unsstable. Any experience?
- SimpleHelix (realy fast magento demo store, lots of scripts, @Mail and seems to have a fast network to europe)
So any advices on premium shared hosting?
An in Europe, any company similar to mediatemple or simplehelix?
Budjet: up to 100 $

my primary domain still works perfectly but the virtual host I created keeps loading 403 error page I have checked the Apache error log and I found two instanses of

So I set up a Cloud VM to host a number of websites and as a precaution I enabled the Parallels Antivirus.... wow. The server memory usage has shot up from 55% to 108% when it is turned on.
This is bonkers - how can I reduce the memory back to a safer % while keeping the AV turned on? Are there other services that are non essential that I can turn off without effecting performance?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI want to make a small review of 59Box , chinese hosting company that i pleased to work with for last period.
I needed a dedicated server placed in China and started to search the web . I did a few conversations mostly on messenger with a few companies , but it was very strange for me that they sometimes even didn't knew to answer my very simple questions about upload/download speed limitation, trial period,they clients web sites for test connection etc. So i found it not so easy to find some professional loooking company with good and quick support in China.
After of few days of searching in forums i found 2 recomendations, one is for 59Box and second is for HiChina so i contacted them both.
I was amazded by very quick response from 59Box and started my conversation with them. Ken , this is the name of guy who helped me all the way , answered my questions extremely fast , and all of them was cleared . Hichina answered on the next day , also with very good and detailed mail , sample contract attached etc . But i seen no reason to try them cause Ken's proposal was good for me and I liked his support.
I paid by Paypal and my server was ready in 24 hours as promised by Ken. Since then it's running with no problems. Line is very good for my needs. Latency is good and connections is stable.
So i'll recommend this company to everybody who looking for server in china with great support and good prices.
this is my small review CMBHosting after a month.
I'm an old customer of level3hosting, after that company run away [url]i need another place to host my forum . My friend recommend me cmbhosting [url]with good offer. And i go with them. After making payment via paypal, i got my vps information.
I have a medium vbb forum , having about 400 visitor online same time ( cookie set to 2000 ) but cpu never load high more than 1.0. I'm happy with it.
After i run my site two weeks, i got big problem. Someone attacked my site and my site was hacked. I contacted CMBhosting via Chat Live Support, and they helped me to fight.
They setup firewall and check all my file to fix error. After that, my site run and run . The day after that, my site was attacked again, they protected me again . And now, my site run without problem. I'm happy with their support, fast and great. With $10 per month, it's a great service.
Small live does not support having .htaccess as one of the file. I am working on a A 301 Redirect page. Is there any other way to do this without using .htaccess?
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust a small note from me about my experiences with EuroVPS, I transferred to them from Siteground Shared Hosting about 1 1/2 years ago, I run a fairly busy vbulletin forum, I say it's 'busy' because siteground said my site was consuming too many resources and they basically gave me 7 days to upgrade to their VPS or they said they would shut my site down, so I promptly transferred to EuroVPS.
The transfer went fairly smoothly and my site was up and running in no time at all, this whole VPS thing was totally new to me so the WHM and Plesk things etc. were like toys at xmas, albeit a bit confusing, naturally I had a few tickets in the beginning asking how this and that worked, their response time was phenomenal, I don't think I have ever had to wait longer than 15 minutes for a response. I have opened a total of 20 tickets so far.
Since then I have had the occasional ticket regarding problems and questions from my side and they have always been polite and have always solved my issues 100%. About 6 months ago there was a bit of an issue with regards to the transfer of my domain name that hadn't gone through from siteground to EuroVPS which caused my site to go down. A few tickets later and we managed to figure out what the problem was between us, believe it or not but EuroVPS actually phoned me at home to apologise for the confusion, in my opinion that is oustanding customer service and damn decent of them to go to all the trouble they went to and then still phone me.
Fantastic guys on their support team and in the Accounts department, I have nothing but praise for them, especially Sam M, Jeff D and Eugene K, thank you guys for top notch support.
I'm setting up a VPS server on Slicehost, I've followed the guide on howtoforge for debian and have everything installed including ISPConfig3. Everything seems to work fine at the mo but when I check the memory usage, i see that I'm using around 490/500mb of my 512mb setup. Its a Xen setup so I understand this is real memory available but I'm not sure if this is enough.
I will ultimately be running around a dozen sites, some static and some dynamic. There's one Mambo and one Joomla site there but they don't update. The rest are all php/mysql sites that I've built myself but again, they don't change that much. None of the sites currently see more than a couple hundred uniques a day, and some only a handful, so usage is not high. Most of the domains have e-mail accounts attached, but its only moderate usage with around a dozen addys per domain max.
So, do I need more memory or will 512 be enough? Is there anything I can do to reduce the load and give myself some more room?
I'm moving from a shared hosting environment and while I'm comfortable setting up the server, I would rather have a simple mail manager that would give users more control over their accounts, change passwords etc, which I'm hoping ISPConfig3 will be able to help with, but thats probably best discussed in another post.
I just joined this forum because I want to let as many people as possible know about a horrible experience that I had with my last small business web hosting company: LogicWeb.
Then I would love to hear other people's horror stories about companies they hate and praises about companies they like.
Let me just say that I had originally signed up with another company that was bought by LogicWeb. I had their VPS package and the biggest problem was the customer service which used to be good under the other company. Run into a little problem, send them an email and have to wait three days for a response. A response that generally said something like "we don't cover that."
So, anyhow, I found another small business web hosting company and then tried to cancel with LogicWeb. Sent them email after email and I was still getting billed. Finally, I found their cancellation form buried on their site and submitted a cancellation with a note stating that I had sent several emails trying to cancel.
A couple of weeks later, I get another bill in my email box so I decide to call them up. I'm on the phone with a guy and tell him that I have been trying to cancel for three months and the first thing he says is, "I don't think you're being honest."
"What?" I say not believing that that could be the first thing he says to me. "I think you're lying."
"Well, I'm not lying and I resent this conversation so far."
"Well, you are lying. It's only been two months since you stopped using our system."
"So, because I'm off by one month, you call me a liar?"
"Yes, because liars lie!"
I couldn't believe it! I couldn't believe that any small business web hosting service would call their client a liar even if they were lying. So, I made a mistake and got pissed and cursed!
"I can't believe you're calling me a ****ing liar! I've never ever been called a liar before. Let me speak to your supervisor!"
"Well, I'm the owner and I'm recording this conversation and if you're going to use foul language with me then I'll just report you to my collections department!"
I say, "Let me get this straight. You say that I'm lying and call me a liar, something no business person should ever do to a client, and just because I say '****ing' because I'm insulted, you're pissed at me? Well, if you are going to hang up on me then let me just finish with this... you are a ****ing *******!"
I don't know how much worse a business owner can act with a customer and I highly recommend avoiding LogicWeb since they are the worst small business web hosting around.
I want to run a SMALL vbulletin forum with a maximum of 500-1000 people.
Is hostingpuppy the right host service for me? they are cheap plus they have good uptime and alot of people love them.
