question about bandwidth ?

**incka** · 11-23-2003, 10:29 AM

I'm moving to your host, but on a bigger plan, <i><b>when</b></i> I have at least 1 other site ready to go online.

One question though... Is it easy to upgrade between plans?

They say it is, but I've never had to. Just a warning, support hasn't been good over the last month.

Why would you need support?

Easily are good at support and you usually get an non-automated reply within 20 minutes.

I now have a reseller account at lighningservers.net. $24 per month. 25GB per month.

You might also try dathorn.com. Only $13.50 per month for reseller account, 30GB bandwidth, 2GB storage.

The low price actually scared me a bit ao I went with lightning servers instead

Though, LS are faster too.

Thanks for that!

I'll look at them both...

**incka** · 11-23-2003, 11:56 AM

I think I might get the dathorn one...

Well what if something goes wrong? You don't just sit back and watch, you contact them.

Perhaps Easily are good at support, but if they don't offer what you need then that doesn't really matter.

There were a couple of decent looking hosts posted here a month or two ago. They sounded too good to be true though...

Dathorn looks like the one for me...

**chromate** · 11-23-2003, 02:16 PM

Dathorn has a good forum that's quite active with other people hosting their sites there. Also has regular posts from the owner, Andrew, about upgrades etc.

**incka** · 11-23-2003, 02:42 PM

I'll read it...

Know any other cheap ones?

One problem is that they don't allow any adult content unless something about the server is swutched, and my site has games like boom boom volleyball on it...

**chromate** · 11-23-2003, 02:51 PM

Errmmm... not too sure about adult content. I found those two on webhostingtalk.com so you could ask in there about it.

**incka** · 11-23-2003, 02:57 PM

I'm not going to become a traitor by going to another webmaster forum!

**Mike** · 11-23-2003, 03:43 PM

I wouldn't call boom boom volleyball as a adult content

My host does not allow adult content, but they don't mind about adult templates. You'll be fine with them.

An active forum with an owner like that sounds promising as well.

i wouldnt go to dathorn they run phpmyexuc or something like that its annoying and alot of clients left because they installed that on their servers. I would try vshosting.net a uk based reseller hosting company.
