    Cheap web hosting.

    Forgive the random thread.

    Trying to cut some bills and I have a webserver resale package that frankly I can't keep up on my own. That being said I'm selling some of my webspace to people. I'm looking for around $5.00 a month for it. I don't know how much space I will offer for that amount because I'm not sure how many people are interested in this but it comes with everything installed (if you want) which includes Drupal, etc. Comes with an email ([email protected]) and Cpannel all ready to go.

    Post here or PM me if you're interested in this.

    Thanks BG.

    Re: Cheap web hosting.

    I pay $5/month for 110gb storage, 10TB/month bandwidth, unlimited emails, pointers, ftp accounts etc.

    How will your packages compare?

    Re: Cheap web hosting.

    Okay I was a bit off, I have 110gb storage, 5TB bandwidth, 110 pointers, unlimited ftp, pop3 etc.

    http://www.site5.com/hosting/legacy.php

    I'm on the $5 deal x2, paid $120 up front for two years, about a year ago.

    Check out their current package, 1850ish gb, 18TB for $4.60 upwards depending on how long you sign up for. If you pay for 2 years it's $8.40/month.

    lol, I was suggesting you switched plans as you're struggling with that reseller one.

    Re: Cheap web hosting.

    I'm using dreamhost atm, a bit less stuff but when ya do get money, they have apremium service where you can restart the server (if it crashes etc) and lets you throttle your memory/cpu usage... incase you got a intensive site.

    Like... my website is heavy on attachments/images/videos/audio/dat files etc,transfers about 200-300gb a week and uses alot cpu/memory which some hosts probably would be spamming me with 500 errors. (well I'm signed for the service has a monthish long wait period and costs a little extra)

    Doubt I'd use up all the space/bandwidth any time soon or will for quite some time! (also the packages go up per week in extra spac/bandnwidth no extra cost)

    I've loaned out accounts for people to upload videos/music etc (like the FFXI music thread) think thats about 1-2GB in music.

    and violating your TOS>.>;; and you wouldnt be able to add email, as 99% of most major email providers will reject anything from you because its coming from a dynamic IP and is labeled as spam

    i do the same, however i'm not violating my TOS

    Hm... You've obviously never heard of DYN DNS . http://jeatin.ath.cx/ its not much and I only use it for ftp and hosting a friends site! And yeah I am violating my tos but I really don't give a damn because it uses such low bandwidth that its highly unlikely that it will ever be spotted *knock on wood*.

    After serving you a C&D for your WoW server, I wouldn't be surprised if they kept an eye on your account.

    I'm almost 100% sure that a wow server gives out 20-30x more bandwidth than a web server. That is most likely why I got a c&d and the issue of serving illegal data doesn't really help. !
