Is Really Bandwidth Unlimited In Some Hostings

Aug 20, 2008

There are many hosting service providers around the world. Many are advertising, Unlimited Bandwidth, Unlimited Disk storage .

I choose one of those company for one my hosting need. It is not much a big website but has some traffic. Also nothing to download or upload... all the content is text based. In one month hosting started to suck.. lots of downtime and database error from the hosting side.

End of the day, I was asking for a VPS solution. My God! they do not have any VPS or dedicated server solution at all.

Why the hosting companies just buildup their advertisement. And why should they offer what they cannot provide. And their strength I still see is.. they are still saying to me that they are hosting is Unlimited Bandwidth, Unlimited Disk storage.

HostGator - Unlimited Bandwidth?

Apr 5, 2008

HostGator 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, 2009

while 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.

Dreamhost Unlimited Bandwidth. How Much Have YOU Pushed

Sep 10, 2008

Signed up with Dreamhost and my account was closed after two days (no warning). Was on track to push 1-2TB a month. They said my video blog was a "file dump"

Two questions:

1) How much bandwidth has anyone actually been able able to use with them (or any overseller) and how'd you do it?

2) How can you get what's advertised? Do VPS accounts let you use all your bandwidth? Could you list some hosts that will not find excuses to shut you down? I have no idea how much bandwidth is reasonable to expect with shared hosting

My Dreamhost account was jusjon4 if anyone from the company could let me recover my data that'd be great (I don't even want a refund)

Limited Versus Unlimited Bandwidth

Dec 12, 2007

I am having trouble working out which host to choose for a new project.

I usually opt for Webmania or Heart Internet - they are excellent providers but Webmania now applies a bandwidth cap that may be too low and Heart's cheapest package does not provide sub-domains. I can't be sure whether 12GB will be big enough for a site that will contain galleries of high-res images (I have no prior experience with caps and traffic predictions are impossible at this time) and to get sub-domains from Heart means a £90 per year package (too much).

Streamline is one of the few good-value providers that do not cap bandwidth, but I have concerns about the effect that this may have on server speed given that it is bound to attract the kind of sites that are really heavy on bandwidth. This point was mentioned in an article recently.

If I take the last option, will I be hampering the performance of my site?

Virtual Private Server (VPS) Unlimited Number Of Website With Unlimited Number Of Domains?

Oct 5, 2007

I'm new to Private Virtual Server and the package offered by different company are quite confusing.

I was on RackForce and their basis VPS package dds200-L can host 100 domain names on Plesk and unlimited domain names on WHM/Cpanel.

On 1and1 it didn't say if Plesk support 100 or unlimited domain names. My question is, do we always have the liberty to host unlimited domain names on our PVS?

Can anyone recommend a good VPS hosting company?

Why Going Unlimited?

May 8, 2008

It seems there is a small surge that is rising with big hosting companies moving towards unlimited.

I think it started with Yahoo and now over the last few days I have noticed some other companies listed below going unlimited on space/bandwidth.

Hostmonster
IXwebhosting
startlogic

With this in mind, I suspect many others will start to follow. We shall see in the coming months.

1&1 Unlimited

Aug 12, 2008

I spent 2 weeks reading the materials this company has on it's website, AND, asking them several pre-sell questions to see if they would 'fit the bill', so to speak.

After answering all my questions, I ordered a 'managed' server, because although I have had vps's and other hosting accts., I didn't feel confident managing my own server.

Plus, they have a summer "special" for only $49.90 for the first 3 months, on a 24 month contract.

WHAT A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING!

First, it took 2 and-a-half weeks to setup my server. I had to go screaming to paypal to get them to tell me my server was ready. (They SAY it'll be ready within 5 days) I had to cancel the contract, and rant and rave to get that far. (Who needs the stress - know what I mean?)

Also, I had called their support a couple times to try to get the status of my server order, and the people working for them, don't know a darn thing. I got sent to two different places, just trying to find out what had happened with my server order.

Anyway, I was satisfied that I finally had my server, and removed the claim at pp. The drama continues . . .

One of the questions I had asked them PRIOR to buying, is how much additional ip's would cost for this package. They gave me the cost, and I made a 'mental note' of it.

Last night, I sent an email to them requesting several more IP's, as I need them for several projects I've been WAITING to get started.

I was told that I can't HAVE additional IP's for my server. Has anyone EVER heard of that before?

Upon spending more time on the 'server' interface, it's nothing more than an admin panel, (not windows, whm, centos, or cpanel, etc.) that you can build 'a' website with.

Lots of FLUFF, but not the definition of a server AT ALL! It's somthing that a complete newbie would order because they can't make their own website.

So, now I've wasted almost a month screwing around with this company, and they out and out LIED to me, (I have the emails to prove it) and I'm left 'out' $50, all the time they wasted, AND, I don't know if I'm even going to be able to afford another solution until next month! I'm just getting started and my budget isn't very big, but I AM honest, and I pay my bills. I'm on disability, so I have to plan my budget carefully, until I get rich that is.
(Sorry, sidetracked there, 'cause I'm VERY upset right now.)

Bottom line, this company sucks all the way around. I think they are just so big, that there isn't any personalized service at all, and their customer service people are dumb as rocks.

Avoid them like the plague!

Have a great day everyone. I've been crying all day, so I'm going to go do some aromatherapy with a hot bath and some candles. Tomorrow is another day, and hopefully God brings me another solution.

Virtuozzo - Unlimited VEs

Mar 27, 2009

Does any dedicated server provider give a Virtuozzo license with unlimited VEs? I've noticed that most of them give 3, 10, or max. 100. Do you have any idea why wouldn't they give a license for unlimited VEs and why are they restricting the number of VEs that we can create on a server since, as far as I've understood, Viruozzo provides license considering the CPU no.s, but not the number of VEs.

Define Unlimited

May 27, 2009

what do you consider unlimited? Is unlimited simply a marketing term? I've seen a few host go from offer 1000mb to just listing it as unlimited.

I could understand that after some time a person may become confused once they start using too many resources but was the "unlimited" just a trend other hosting companies have followed? or do you congregate somewhere and decided, hey we should do unlimited, lol.

I'm curious because I see these "unlimited" plans a lot, as a consumer I'm really starting to focus more on plans that do listed in numbers what you get as appose to just seeing the word unlimited.

UNLIMITED Databases

Nov 4, 2009

Do u want to run an online e-commerce store? create a forum? or develop the next facebook or myspace? If you answered yes to any of th questions then there are very important factors you need to consider before choosing a host.

You have to understand that there's a difference between Database and database size. UNLIMITED database means that you have as many databases as you want, but of what use is an unlimited database if the disk size for the database is just 50MB for example. Don't be deceived by the number of database a web host company is willing to chun out. Do a little research, ask questions. Afterall you might not need an unlimited database afterall.

Unlimited Web Hosting, What's Next

Oct 31, 2008

the industry is back to where it was about 8 years ago, when only a few companies offering unlimited were labeled as "scam". Now 8 years down the road, most of the large companies offering unlimited everything, but everyone is ok with it.

What is next? How will the competition go on?

Examples:
Unlimited + Free 2nd Unlimited account.
Unlimited + Unlimited = Unlimited!!
Unlimited + FREE CASH!

How low can these companies go? How will they keep up the competition since there is no more disk space or bandwidth left to compete on. Maybe start free hosting? Start giving out cash to sign up?

If you look at one of those Top 10 hosting web sites, you will see all the companies listed now offer unlimited everything, just different pricing structure. Since they all offer the same thing, wouldn't the person looking just click on the lowest price? Since most people aren't aware of overselling or the unlimited truth, they see it as something that they will never run out of. Average consumer is not aware of these marketing gimmicks.

Honestly if my cell phone provider was offering unlimited minutes for $45 per month, and another one was offering $100 for 1000 minutes my choice would be unlimited. I would even put up with a little bit of crap from the support for $45 unlimited talk time, and a few service outages.

-Maximum of 8 simultaneous IMAP connections
-Maximum of 40 simultaneous PHP connections
-Maximum of 60 simultaneous MySQL connections
-Maximum of 400 simultaneous HTTP connections
-Maximum of 8 simultaneous FTP connections

I just found that kind of funny and thought I'd share it with y'all.

It basically just sums up what y'all have been saying all along:

If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is.

What Does Hosting 'unlimited' Domains Really Mean

Aug 17, 2009

I registered and hosted two domains, one for my girlfriend and one for me.

I used GoDaddy, paying around $130 all together at a rate of $5 monthly.

Doing research tonight for a new domain I want to host, I come across "HostGator" which offers Unlimited Domain Hosting. (At around $7 a month)

Does this mean, if I am not mistaken, I could have payed $84 and placed my girlfriend's and my domain on the same hosting server, thus using the same bandwidth and storage space, thus saving a bit of money?

Assuming I am correct up until now, what happens if I get a hosting package that has unlimited storage space, unlimited bandwidth, and unlimited domain hosting? That means the only additional cost I'd be paying for hosting a new site would be a basic $10 per year domain registration cost?

I am quite ambitious and have plans for about 3 new domain projects, and I figured I would have to purchase a new hosting account of $60+ yearly for each one. If I could combine these into one hosting account, it would save a lot of money and grief.
