Webhost For Media Oriented (not Porn) Web Site?
Jun 22, 2008
I have a media orient web site with a lot of videos (.WMV files), most of them are from PC based racing games, a few other games, plus videos of radio control models, racing cars, etc. Currently, there is about 9GB of media on my web site and traffic is about 20GB to 200GB / month (activity increase when I add videos from a newly released game). Note this is a hobby web site (not a business site, no ads, or ad related links).
My current web host provider, ipower, recently switched to a much small number of servers with many more users per server, and now they throttle download rate to about 350 kilo-bytes / second. Before the change, download rates ran over 2 mega bytes / second.
If curious as to the content, my web site is here: ...

I'm starting a business selling hand crafted adult sex toys. I'm looking for the most inexpensive possible web host who will allow adult content. The content will not involve full nudity; no nipples or genitals. Obviously, all people depicted will be over 18. It will essentially just be people modeling products and some depictions of sexually explicit scenes. Can anyone recommend a good web host for my situation?

I have recently been looking over Webhost Websites seeking errors, I will admit I have come across a couple at HawkHost (not trying to make a fool of them), Just pointing errors out.
@ Their SLA - [url] - You will see that they have:
Quote:
Your must include the service type, primary domain, contact information, and a full description of the service interruption including logs if applicable.
Where 'Your' should be 'You'
Also at their [url]- Page the link to SLA lead to /policy/sla instead of /legal/sla.
I have submitted these errors, But this is besides the point of the thread, I am work curious to 'Does it Deter You' from purchasing from a Webhost with errors?

I wanna know if upload media to server for streaming will slow your site down?
Reason is that I have a few audio books on my server for my members to listen to, and I have a feeling that my site is using more and more resources and its getting slower and slower each day.

Its been sometime since I posted here. I'm in London and had been negotiating with my current host for sometime about getting a fully managed dedicated server which would also allow smut to be hosted on it as I want to get into hosting for swingers and escorts - Anyway - the best deal I could get there, which was about 3 yrs ago, and I think a damn good one was for an annual fee of £1000 - £1200 which included an 80 gig server plus all the other no frills you might expect - now that I have found a business partner and have the money I find that my host has migrated the service to Florida and to cut down bandwidth they are no allowing porn anymore!
Can anyone out there offer me some options? I run serveral mainstream sites already.
Ideally I would like the support to be within the UK if possible, or at least very good. I need a host who is porn friendly and would prefer to not have to worry too much about the 2257 **** that the USA have if possible - although I can provide that, its just I hate Big Brother!

What is up with servint?
I have domains and a vps through them.
The vps is now serving up porn on all the sites.
When I call servint they say I don't own the name but a whois shows i DO INDEED own the name for another year and it is registered to me and they are the registrar!!!
The portal user/pass suddenly stopped working so I can't even put in a support ticket
All I get is a message machine ... does anyone know if servint staff ever come on this board.
It has probably been hacked but it is pretty disturbing when they say I don't own the domain but it is CLEAR THAT I do own it.

I had a site with admo.net. To my surprise the name registration was done in their name and not mine so domain name cannot be taken with you. When your hosting date expires the domain was directed the day it expired to a porn site without a renewal notice or warning. It was not until after I requested the name only renewal that a renewal email arrived. The date on the renewal was marked due over 10 days after it had already expired. In the mean time all the visitors looking for me were directed to porn links.

My next website will be a sort of adult orientated social networking type site that will allow users to upload adult pics ect.
Most of the good recommended hosts such as : medialayer, Rochen, Known Host and so on don't seem to allow pornography of any kind.
Are there any as good as those that do allow this kind of thing?

Has anyone else had this happen with Enom?
My clients domain expired a couple days ago and his page now has links with the following keywords:
C*nt
Hairy P*ssy
Fat *ss
Big T*t
Round *ss
Monster D*ck
Big *ss T*t
I called Enom, and they're only response was, "Well why did you let that domain expire?"
I then asked for a supervisor and was told that one was not available.
Looks like its time to find a new domain reseller.

I'd like to ask for some help in choosing a webhost. I want to host a website that will be a sales database. It will use a MySQL database and PHP. I will not need large amounts of disc space (I can't estimate exactly but probably less than 10GB) and relatively low amounts of bandwidth. What's important is a high uptime and security and quality bandwidth. I am very sceptical with all the webhosts offering unlimited services since I know they are overselling. Do you know of any quality webhosts suitable with the above characteristics?

I am in charge of making a website for a charter school. Where I stand right now is I am going to use Joomla, and I assume Fantastico. Now where I am still stuck is with a webhost. Every time I locate one that sounds good (editor's picks, and such), I read the feedback comments and find tons of complaints. Can someone recommend one please. Under $10; user friendly; accepts Paypal would be very helpful. I went to get Bluehost, as an example, from some reviews I read, and then I read the feedback section. I don't think I understand the terms enough to make a choice on my own,

I friend of mine wanted to know if it's possible to use a webhost (for example hostmonster.com and bluehost.com.) as a backup storage. Is it possible to transfer the files to the webhost with ftp at "Admin Backup/Transfer" with admin level?

How do you ensure scalability of your web site?
Many of us create websites hoping that they get a lot of hits.
How can you ensure that if your web site gets a lot of hits, that it doesn't get knocked over, that it can scale and take many hits? I am not talking about a DoS attack. I am talking about a website that gets very popular and gets a lot of hits.

I am a free web hosting service on one of my VPS' and I owuld like to transfer it to another one. How can I do it without creating issues as I would like to move all the accounts with it at the same time.
Current VPS and webhost nameservers
ns1.domain1.com
ns2.domain2.com
New VPS nameservers
ns1.domain2.com
ns2.domain2.com
Now how can I move all the accounts but dont change the nameservers? I mean is it possible to have two different domain name servers pointing to each other?
Not sure if it makes sense but hopefully some expert guy will get to the bottom of it

I'm getting ready to upgrade my site to Joomla and am learning all these things about security issues. For example, the register globals on my webserver is turned on and I can't turn it off unless I go to a dedicated server and pay 3X per month of what I'm paying now. And there's other things too about this particular webhost.
Just wondering if anyone can give any input from experience on who is a good webhost for a Joomla site with regards to security, etc.

When I was trying to figure out who to register with I looked at the following things. I believe all of these are very important to making your website as successful as possible. Support and uptime are the most important to me without these your site will be down alot and take longer to bring back when a problem occurs. The amount of space and plan though is really on a case to case basis.
* Price
* Performance
* Reliability
* Customer Support
* Control Panel
* User Feedback
* Website Design
Now I ask you.

Does anyone know of a good web host that allows adult content? No porn or anything hardcore, basically it's just half-nude/topless/erotic posing pictures.
I will definitely need a web host that allows a lot of bandwidth, I'm actually doing this for someone who just got in the cover of Penthouse. So.. I'm sure there will be a lot of traffic.

I plan to host a small multimedia site.
I am looking for a new webhost. I want a webhost that:
1. Costs less than $10 a month
2. Allows file hosting. (Video streaming/downloading)
3. Ideally allows for storage of files that are not related to the website.
4. Ideally allows for anonymous FTP access.
Only 1 and 2 are critical. The site will have many MP3s, Videos, PDF and text documents available for streaming or downloading. All the material will either be my own or the copywrited material of my organization. I have their express written permission to host and distribute these media files under a creative commons license. It will be 5GB or less of files, and they will be downloaded rarely and not very many people simultaneously downloading at once.
Most webhosts I have looked at (Monsterhost, 1and1, Bluehost, mmhosting.com, etc) All offer unlimited/tons of space and have some provision in their terms of service agreement like this: "Webhost company does not allow file sharing / unlimited media sharing." or "HostMonster.Com offers its Services to host web sites, not to store data. Using an account as an online storage space for archiving electronic files is prohibited and will result in termination of hosting services without prior notice."
So where can I find a host that allows file hosting, video hosting, etc? I don't need a lot of bandwidth/storage space, but I do want to host my media.

I'm just wanting some feedback in response to what I feel is gross neglegence of a Webhost I used. I have a website thru this company, WebsitePros. They seemed great for someone like myself, a retail business owner/operator w/ no eployees. I pay 1 company to host, market, and provide software for me to build & manage my site & store. My site had an ecommerce store which was mistakenly deleted by someone at their company. They lost all my pics, product descriptions, customer info, etc, from 2 years of business. They have no backups at all for the store (i had to login to my account to manage store using thier software-- no ability to backup the info on my computer). I was told by their supervisor that traditional webhosts like WebsitePros don't backup store files, just the site itself, and that they would only be willing to help rebuild but offer no monetary compensation (oh yeah, and 3months at 1/2 price...sweet). This isn't a case of failure to pay a bill or anything along those lines---they admit total liability.
My questions are:
1) Is it not the webhost's responsibility to backup these "store" files?
2) Do I seem unreasonable in asking for damages since they lost all this info, including 100's of customer profiles & outstanding orders?
3) Heard of precedents here? Right compensation?

I actually really have'nt found what I've been looking for. What I need is a shared webhost in Europe. What I need is:
- 5 GB disk storage
- Some traffic (not really that much)
- Up to 10-15 add-on domains (accessing different folders)
- Up to 30 MySQL databases
- Subdomains (accessing different folders)
- 10 FTP-users who can access folders across the usernames
- PHP
- ImageMagick
- PHP memory limit not lower than 32 MB (to support TYPO3)
- SFTP support
- SSH/Shell if possible
I'm currently with DreamHost and Servage.net. DreamHost is actually OK (even though they seem to be overselling) - but I would like to move my sites closer to home (Denmark). Servage.NET I can't recommend, as their MySQL perfomance (or whatever) is horrible on the first request to my websites.
So basically what I wan't is specs more or less like DreamHost - but without the very high amount of disk-space and transfer.
I've been looking at some UK-based hosts - but most of the fails on either the domains or MySQL databases. However - I have'nt been able to figure out how many domains you can host on floppynet.co.uk?
Budget is apx. 10 euros a month.
