Thread: Best hosting for me?

I have to host 50+ domains, need the price $10/mo or cheaper, must be well regonized host, none of those littler re-seller hosters..

NOT:
-Godaddy
-1and1
-HostGator

MUST ALLOW:
-Proxys

MUST BE FLEXABLE HOSTER.

You are going to have a tough time with that one, especially allowing proxies. If you find one don't be shocked if up time is compromised.

You really should look into a VPS bare minimum IMO

How much do those run a mo..

Depends on the provider, control panel, etc

Avg. price...............?

$20 is the cheapest you will find

most hosts don't allow proxies.

Well, most don't allow,but they also don't care..

For a cheap VPS that offers proxy hosting I'd recommend.

http://www.wdservers.com/

Ill check it out, anyone else have suggestions?

Your wrong there. They do care. They probably just haven't caught you running them.

Proxies are big bandwidth suckers, any decent host who monitors their servers closely will not allow them. Go VPS, or even better dedicated.

Not only are they big bandwidth suckers but they also put quite a load on the server.

I'd recommend https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/
They're inexpensive, and allow just about all sorts of content, but you'd better go through their FAQs...

The best bit: It costs me a few cents a month to host my sites. Seriously.
The bad bit: quite a few, but downtime and support are not on that list.

They allow proxies, to an extent. from their FAQ:

By default, we do not allow public HTTP (web) or IRC proxies because such proxies will be abused within minutes of discovery. It just saves time to say "no" up front rather than wait and shut it down later. If you need to set up a private proxy for your personal use that is appropriately access-limited, that is typically no problem as long as your use of it is legitimate.

What happened at Gator? Your account suspended?

Well straight away his site isn't allowed in their faq so there is no point signing up there. If you want quality hosting you need to pay quality prices.

You can pay quality prices at NFS if you have the need for it. It's a pay-as-you-go host... One site that I manage uses around 300 MB of bandwidth per day. For that site, the site-owner pays accordingly.
Disclaimer: I'm on my first month with them, and this is purely based on what I've seen so far. But as far as Hurley's non-proxy sites are concerned, it would work out less expensive to host the assorted sites on NFS, and the proxy on another account.

If a low-budget server/VPS is what you're looking for, I remember seeing a site which had some servers at 10USD a month onwards. All old machines, but good for a beginner to get started on. Will post a link when I find one.

There is a cheap vps if you are interested.

KevWorks | Affordable Web Hosting

edit: I forgot to add that I actually use kevworks and have done for 3 months now.

Ok ill check out those 2 links, and yes my gator account is suspended.......as i stated above

servint has great vps's, but you'll pay for them They are not expensive, however more than the $10 laid out.

Yeah, altho i got my hostgator back, i had to take off most of my shit.. therefore still looking for good hosting with alot of addon domains about $10/mo

It's not the addon domains that are a problem. It is the fact that you want to run a proxy and a image host.

Yeah i realized that but i need tons of addon's cuz i have 40+ domains

The problem is you are not going to get reliable hosting for your site at such a price. You should be looking for atleast a VPS or low end dedicated.

There you go: Low End Box - Hosting Websites on Bare Minimum VPS/Dedicated Servers

Only reliable one is Techentrance with unlimited addons and proxy allowed ..... using them for last three months without anytime downtime. Pm me for Affiliate link

Ill check it out

I would search on google, large, cheap hosting. One good one that i use usually is bluehost or host monster.

Hurley:

I have told you this in another thread, forget about the add on domains, and get you a cheap reseller account, so you can set up a different account for each domain, you will end up spending about the same!!

Oh must have not saw it , but thanks thats a good deal..

So I would setup a diff. account for each domain?

Yes you would setup a different account for each domain. Personally I cannot see the advantage of getting a reseller over shared with addons, well except for having seperate stats.

Yeah thats probably what he was going after, the stats but then you'd have to login to every account ( in this case 50+ ) just to change nameservers etc..

You can post your request on webhostingtalk.com and somebody will contact you.

I was just trying to help you with your stats problem from another thread,

If you have a resellers account, when you log in to the main account on cPanel, you can choose all other accounts from the drop down box to the right, so logging in to other accounts is not a big hassle.

Also, changing name servers would be done from your registrar's account, nothing to do with your hosting account!

You make good points, thanks

I heard bluehost is a good option.

I got techentrance.com proxy hosting
