New Servers

[BadProgrammers]

Hi guys,

i am thinking to host my websites at my own servers
but i have no idea about it's coast

do you know how much a server will coast to me.
or any more guidence which i should keep in mind while purchasing server.

The server cost, power cost and ISP costs will far outweigh how much you pay monthly at another site.

No point in buying your own server, just use shared hosting like the rest of us for $5 a month.

If your looking for your own VPS server, try http://www.servercomplete.com

Great prices for semi-managed servers. It's a whole lot better if you were to host your very own server.

running a server is not easy. I can tell you. but what you can do is buy a desktop and convert it over to a server but your Internet provider might have rules against using their services to host sites.

I have plans as low as 12.00 for the whole year. just supply your own co.cc or top level domain.

pm for more answers to your questions.

I would never trust a host who can't even get their own TLD. That's just me though.

Bad, mate as Kirisute Gomen & Christan it would cost you far more then a shared hosting package.

XD I'm not in it to make money. I'm doing it to help other forum owners. so I dont need a top domain.

[Nathan]

A bit too much marketing if you ask me. We all know you offer hosting, so there's no need to advertise in every hosting related topic you post on. 😛

 

[prettylolita]

I will pm you about that.

I would say, as stated a Million times, but completely true, stay with Shared hosting, unless you have massive serverloads and gigabytes of data.

I don't think I see anything of that scale on his forums.

 

[Zenrer]

Exactly, why I am saying dont get one, just get Shared

 

[BadProgrammers]
