NationalNet offers $99 server with 2000GB? Can it be true???

[LBBV]

Some weeks ago, NationalNet purchased the assets of RevShare Hosting ( http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showthread.php?t=894209 ). We made this purchase to help us kick start a new offering we were working on. As you know, we have always specialized in high-end fully-managed hosting. Over the years we have had numerous requests from people that wanted to manage their own dedicated server but be backed by the power of NationalNet. You spoke...we listened...and now that day has come...Check out these deals....

http://www.nationalnet.com/dedicated_hosting.html

P4 2.8/1G RAM/80G HD/2000GB Transfer.....ONLY $99!!!

P4 2.8/1g RAM/250G HD/5000GB Tansfer.....ONLY $199!!!

DualCore/2G RAM/2x500 RAID HD/10,000GB Transfer....ONLY $329!!!

DualCore/2G RAM/2x500 RAID HD/100Mbps.....ONLY $559!!!

Each of these servers are totally customizable. If you want to add more of anything just click the "ORDER NOW" link and you can rebuild the server to any specs you want!! If you don?t see exactly what you want, then contact sales via the link on the dedicated page and our sales team will work with you to configure a custom deal for you.

With our new agreement with cPanel we now offer a cPanel Control Panel that will allow you to manage the server yourself or you can forgo the panel and be your own System Administrator. The plus for using NationalNet for a Dedicated Server is that 24x7x365 you can take advantage of our "ON DEMAND" support for a small fee and we can help you with any problem that you encounter. Always thought you could not afford NationalNet? Well, now you can!!

[HorseShit]

cool deal

[Snake Doctor]

Could you please define "small fee" for the on demand tech support?

[sandman!]

someone should really test out the order form in firefox.

besides the messed up order form the deals look good

[Rochard]

Jesus Fucking Christ..... I think you guys at National Net need to put down the crack pipe.

I've been with National Net for like seven years. I'll never leave them. They are the best, hands down.

$35/incident.

[LBBV]

And let me clarify - per incident doesn't include reboots, hardware breakfix, etc as those are all included at no charge.

We DID test the form in FF...and in fact is the only browser I use and our developers use multiple browsers in order to test.

May I ask what you are seeing that looks wrong and what you did so we can duplicate?

An "incident" is anytime you contact support. If you're on the phone for 10 minutes or 2 hours it's the same cost (it's called "taking the good with the bad").

Obviously if the reason you're calling is because of something WE did or something we broke, there would be no charge for it.

Are you referring to the actual order form, where you put in your name, address etc?

I'm not sure I understand what you're talking about.

First, I appreciate your helping with this....but...I'm still a bit lost.

Yes, the form has a grey background but the text above each text area/field is blue, and of course, any text you enter in TO the text fields are not bound to a color.

So, I'm still not sure what I'm missing. I'm sure I'm being an idiot here - would you be willing to send me a screen grab of that page to bill AT nationalnet DOT com?

Killer deal for people that can / want to manage their own server.

[GT-Omar]

I heart Nat net

[JamesK]

that's pretty tempting

[uno]

What does that translate into as MB/s?

[Karupted Charles]

This sounds great Bill. You guys have awesome bandwidth so for those that like to handle there own support issues and keep outsourced bills down this is a win win. I know I personally would not give up your tech support team for a cheaper bill (no pun intended) but different strokes for different folks.

[Serge Litehead]

good to know


btw http://www.nationalnet.com/dedicated_hosting.html is giving 404

It doesn't translate at all exactly but depending on your traffic patterns you can figure between 220-300 Gigs per 1 Mbps.

I think what they're trying to get at is how do you calculate the gigs transferred on the packages that are offering 2000 gigs or something similar.

Is it raw data transfer per the server logs? Or do you use 95th percentile from the MRTG and then take the mbps and multiply by 320 or something like that?

For instance, I could burn 25mbps for 48 hours straight, and then not use any bandwidth for the rest of the month.

If you're billing me in mbps at 95th percentile, then I'm paying for 25mbps, but if you're billing me in raw gigs transferred, I only transferred 503.

That's why it's important to know how those "gigs" are calculated, because most hosts who say they're billing in "gigs" just take the mbps and multiply it by 320.

Careful, you may end up with a Mexican pig.

Not to thread hijack.. but that's nuts.
I'm not going to spam another company... but our host did about 4 hours worth of upgrades for me yesterday just to be nice and help..
And I've had my current host google fixes to wordpress issues and hacks .. with 5 min turn around support emails... for free.

$35/incident is NOT good for marketing minded people who aren't techie nerds and tend to need help quite a bit.

Hi PSS....

I saw your thread about your hosting company and I totally respect your views and I can tell you that I think your hosting company is one of the good ones....but remember that you are comparing apples to oranges. Like yours, our Managed Service includes EVERYTHING at absolutely no additional costs where this is designed for a client that wishes to do some, or all, of their own management.

I hope this helps you to understand.

Do people really do that? Wow! I guess I am just not diabolical enough to even think of something that like.....like everything we do, we do it the right way.....we just total the raw gigs done on the port....if you push 500 Gigs for 3 straight days and nothing the rest of the month you are only going to be billed for 1500 Gigs....no fuzzy math here.

We make money giving a good service for a fair price. I cant think of any other way I would want to do it.

If you really need support for that small stuff go for managed dedicated hosting. The thread starter also already mentioned in his first post it's for people who can manage their own shit.

Over the years we have had numerous requests from people that wanted to manage their own dedicated server but be backed by the power of NationalNet. You spoke...we listened...and now that day has come...Check out these deals....

[strobi]

559$? that's a nice price!

Apparently, I'm a douche who can't read.
Sorry for fucking up your thread.

YAY NAT NET!

Yeah man, it's very rare to find a host who will bill on actual gigs out through the port. At the end of the day you're paying for 95th percentile mbps at 99.9% of hosts.

That's why with your per gig plans you'll likely have ALOT of folks asking how you calculate that.

Wow, maybe I need to get caught up to all of the new fangled ways to make money through creative billing. The way you are describing would mean that the host is charging you for 320GB for every 1mbps you push and we know that in reality (unless you are doing some kind of special application) you are only going to push about 220G for every 1mbps...so that means they are overcharging their customers by 100GB for every 1mbps....so THAT is how they have been selling under cost!

I actually talked to a new NationalNet customer the other day who showed me how his hosting company was billing him like weeks before his month started....it was like he got a bill sometime in May for JUNE's service. I just laughed.

Maybe I need to get more creative...I feel like I am missing out ;)

Did you get any of those side effects - depression, seeing small green trolls (besides the ones here) and so on?

Actually, that is a fair question and we usually remember to put this into the original post, but like all of our specials, this is for new orders only. An existing customer can order these in addition to their current account, but not to replace their current account.
