Switching From 1and1 - Anyone Know A Cheap, *fast* Alternative?
Oct 27, 2008I'm about to ditch 1and1 hosting...sick of their poor customer service, clumsy interface, limited features, and, most of all, their incredibly slow server speeds. Actually, the only thing I liked about 1and1 was their prices.
What I'm looking for is a cheap (~5 bucks a month) web host with reasonably (hopefully more than reasonably :p) fast servers, mySql, PHP, and a reasonable amount of bandwidth. Nothing particularly fancy, I just want it to be simple, cheap, and fast.
Any suggestions?
Fast And Large HD Space Host For Cheap
Jul 28, 2008Who knows a good host that offers PHP5, mySQL 5, and at least 1 TB of hard drive space for a cheap hosting account.
I am setting up a digital asset management tool and I need alot of hard drive space for a few of users to be able to download large image files.
Which is why i need massive amounts of hard drive space.
If anyone knows of anything, please PM me or post it here. I will be checking this thread periodically.
OH and by cheap I mean less then $100/month.
I would guess the server could be either VPS or Shared or if you know of a dedicated server company, then that would be awesome too.
Why Is Cheap Colo More Expensive Than Cheap Dedicated?
Oct 19, 2007This is probably a dumb question, but I've been curious about something. While shopping around for either a cheap dedicated server (less than $75/mo) or a cheap colo for a 1u server, I have noticed that the cheap dedicated servers are often less than a cheap colo, which seems odd to me since with a colo you bring your own machine.
For example, Sago Networks has cheap dedicateds for $50, $59, $79 etc. yet their cheapest colo option is $99. For Sago's $50 dedicated you get 1000GB transfer and 2 IP's, and with their $99 colo you get only get 100 GB transfer and 1 IP.
And Sago is not unusual in this respect. I've priced other providers that fall into this category and they have similar differences.
So why is colo more expensive than dedicated for similar, if not lower, features?

View 8 Replies View RelatedIs There A Fast Web Host Out There
Dec 14, 2008Is there a webhost fast enough for providing large files (2.5GB +, going up to 10GB + larger) on my website to users worldwide?
At the moment my website is hosted in the UK and it seems to deliver download speeds of around 650kbps if only one person is downloading at a time. I have tried other web hosts, and their download speeds are never advertised, but have turned out to be even less in practise (e.g. 150kbps)
As I'm hosting large files (e.g. 1GB - 2.5GB - 8.5GB or more) on my website, I need something with unlimited speed. i.e. so that the download speed is limited only by the end user's connection.
Is there anything like this out there? I realise the files are very large in size, but I'd rather keep the process electronic than mail out hundreds of DVDs all the time.
Fasthosts ~ Or Rather Not So Fast
Apr 2, 2008I have recently closed my Linux Developer account with fasthosts due to intermittant latency problems, and rubbish support query turn around, always over 48hours if replied to at all (most of my support queries were never answered unless I actually phoned in about them!)
So is mine an isolated incident or are others out there having the same problem?

Jan 3, 2008I'm planning to host about 10 websites, most of them will be developed on Dotnetnuke (latest version). The most important issue is the speed of the web sites. The pages need to be opened fast. The target audience is located in Istanbul/Turkey, therefore I think the EU-based companies will be better for my requirements.

PHP 5.2.4 Fast CGI Not Working
Sep 10, 2007I run lighttpd as my webserver, and 5.2.1 worked perfectly. I upgraded to 5.2.4 but when I checked my version, it said "cli". I ran the exact same configure command that I did with 5.2.1, but for some reason it says "cli". I then just ran this config:
'./configure' '--enable-fastcgi' '--enable-discard-path' '--enable-force-cgi-redirect'
And got this error:

Fast Hosting Worldwide?
Dec 27, 2008I need to provide an 8gb file download (split into 1gb parts) that will be downloaded by 80+ people worldwide, simultaneously. I'm talking for example, they will be each downloading at 1.2megabytes per second each (this is the average speed of their home connections), simultaneously.
What are the specs or things I should be looking out for in a website hosting provider?
One service I'm looking at is advertised as 0.5Mbps in bandwidth and 100Mbps in transit, for £40 a month. The service I'm looking at is sensical.net's colo business service (http://www.sensical.net/). What does this mean and is it fast enough? What is the difference between these two figures - 0.5Mbps bandwidth and 100Mbps transit?
Surpass Hosting - Are They Fast
Mar 30, 2009I'm in the process of switching my host provider and Im leaning towards Surpass Hosting.
I've already contacted them for a few question and their support seems expectational as they respond my tickets thoroughly in less then 20 minutes.
Just a few questions to those that do use surpass or have used them. How fast are their servers for PHP like Wordpress and Invision Power Board and are are your sites stable (always fast, or are they slow at times and then fast) with them.
Server Slows Down Fast
Jun 6, 2009The server I have running has LAMP and some other related services running. It's on a 100Mbit shared port. Whenever the server has been running for 30-90mins, the pings start to become very high (+2000ms). Problem exists with ftp, ssh, http etc, and restarting named, httpd, mysqld doesn't affect anything. The only thing that gets the pings back down and the speeds up again is to reboot the system, which takes about a minute. The MRTG graphs show that there isn't any significant traffic which cause the pings go down, in fact, the traffic goes close to 0 when the pings start sky rocketing. CPU load is < 0.1 and memory usage low as well.

Finding A Fast Host
May 4, 2008I have a site that is currently hosted in Australia and loads relatively quickly there , but it is very slow in Uk and France.
Eli kindly set up a trial at blurstorm but I am unhapy with the way it loads in australia which is its primary audience.
how to get my speeds up with the site? ATM there is a 2.8 mb swf file that loads in about 5 sec in aus but about 20 in europe.
Blurstorm is faster in europe(france)but unacceptably slow in Aus.
Is blurstorm considered fast servers on their reseller plans? Or do I need to upgrade my expenditure to get what I want?

Host With Fast Network
Sep 19, 2008fairly strong dedicated server probably minimum of a single processor dual core, preferably a quad-core and around 2GB+ RAM. I don't mind a metered bandwidth plan and I don't have a preference on how much bandwidth is provided but I need a fairly solid and fast network. I looked into midphase and I their plans look attractive but I've heard bad reviews on them on it being unreliable, unreliable support, and a slow network. I also recently used zenex5ive and I wasn't too happy with their network either. I've looked at a bunch of providers but I can't figure out which ones would suit me best. Anybody have any suggestions that you think would match my criteria? I mostly need the specs above and a fairly fast network with good pricing...
View 14 Replies View RelatedFast Transfer Speeds For MP3
Oct 5, 2008I serve mp3 dj mixes for some friends and am coming up on the end of my current hosting contract here in the next couple of months. They have been a fantastic host the only reason I am working on looking elsewhere is cost-related.
I got a unbelievable deal when I signed up last year and it would run me almost $300 to renew for another year, which is out of my price range.
Aside from great uptime (99.97% over 10 months), the thing I really like about the current host is their download speed. I have a 1mb cable connection at home and consistently download files at 850ish/kbps. Everyone I have spoken with has experienced similar speeds. This is much faster than any host I have ever used and is twice as fast as another host I use.
So, what I am looking for is a host that offers something similar in that regard that's around $10/month and optimally has coupons/deals floating around.
I would be happy getting 650kbps/sec, obviously the faster the better. Uptime is always a consideration, however this is more of a hobby and I am not expecting the same uptime that I get currently.
I am not against using a dreaded 'overseller' for this venture, I just need something that pushes large files fast.
I have plenty of time to find a new host, but would like to start getting a short list put together so I can request test files and whatnot.

You can use this to measure how long it takes a web site to deliver a page n times
I wonder if people would like to state how fast their sites using shared web hosting can deliver simple pages, one in HTML and one in PHP (people can add other scripting languages if they wish.
Please don't post the site name or host name, just the results; I'd be interested in seeing what the range of results is, without getting into debates about hosting sites.
Here are two web pages
hello.html:

hello.php:

<body>
<?php
echo "<h1>Hello, php world</h1>";
?>

Here are the test commands; note I set the concurrency level to 1 ("-c 1"), which gives a more realistic measure of the user response time for low-traffic sites.
