Can somebody help,.. it's about bandwidth
Hello,
I own a meta searchengine with about 30,000 hits a day, sometimes when I post my website in a messageboard I get 70,000 hits a day (note that these are hits and no uniques). This is because people can't stop searching at my website.
That's also the reason I use a lot of bandwidth because the results that are sent to the visitor, are taken from another website and filtered.
At the moment I am with http://powweb.com, I was searching at my own website when I saw their advertisment on my website (now that's funny,.. at least I think it is)
I signed up for $7,77/month and got hosted by them. After 2 months I got the message that I was using way too much bandwidth and I was going to be deleted. I disabled my website for a while and after that I removed the previous and next buttons to decrease the bandwidth to stay with them till I have a new host.
They said that I used about 27 gigs/month so I'm looking for 40-50gigs/month for something like $32/month
I saw something interesting at www.tera-byte.com but also discovered http://www.championhost.com. They have some packages. Their 'gold-plan' has 700 MB of webspace with 30 gigs of traffic for $22.95/month. Their 'platinum plan' got unlimited discspace and unlimited bandwidth for $28.95/month.
Because they offer different plans with fixed bandwidth and webspace I almost believe that their 'platinum plan' is real. But I don't believe in 'unlimited' any more.
Can somebody give some comment on that?
Maybe you know another good host?
Thank you,
Michiel
