Newb Knows Nothing About Hosting!
 

:helpmeI have a video blog on blogger getting 8k+ hits a day I plan to eventually become a tube site using the mechbunny script but for now I just like to get off blogger(blogger doesnt index post from adult blogs in google) so I could be getting more traffic than I am now.
Im leaning toward trying vidiscript (since its free) they have recomended host and their links say prices starting at $2.99 a month $4.99 a month but when i emailed them they kept recomending dedicated servers starting at $299.99 and hybrid servers starting at $139.99. I anticipate my traffic going up to 15k to 20k a day once im off blogger. Do i really need the kind of hosting they're suggesting?
:helpme

Depends on how many Users are online at the same time, and, if you rip the Videos on your Server or embed then ect.....

For example: If your Hosting-Package allows max. 10 Connections, your only can have 10 Users online at once.

Simply ask your Hosting-Provider for a custom Offer. Tell them, how many Visitors you'll have a day/at once ect.

cool THANKS

What????

I would get a full user, your just going to have major issues trying to run that on a vserver.

We have them for $169.00 un-managed or $189.00 with Cpanel and manged. http://www.dwhs.net/dedicated-plans.htm

The big question is: do you host your own movies?

If so you need a dedicated server.

I plan to host my videos once im using the mechbunny script but not right off the bat

go for certified shared hosting and try nubiles free tube script, its the easy and best for hotlinking sponsor videos.

good luck.

this is new for me.

i recommend you Phatservers from my sig. The online support with help you out with your needs.

If your hosting provider only allows 10 connections at once you are getting fucked.

Talk with these guys they can set you up right and also help you along the way.

Critical.net Then have been around for more than 10 years.

Yeah, when you start hosting the movies on your own server you need a dedicated server for sure. For now you should be ok, and I say use Certifiedhosting dedicated server because they will install third party scripts for you, such as Mechbunny,, for free. Their servers start at 100 a month Managed, and I have had a great experience using them as my host. Also, when you are ready to go to a dedicated server, they will transfer your current site/database for you for free, and its nice to leave that stuff to the pros.
