Cheap Web Hosting

[Psychosis]

we used 232.54 gigs of bandwidth last month (32 more than we were alocated... ouch... at 5$/gig over

OMG.

WOw that does not even seem possible. OH that was the website, not the message boards.

I'd no longer trust any kind of discounted ad traffic site for hosting. The bottom has already collapsed once and it is going to again, then again, then again. You'd be left counting on a discount after getting everything set up then in five months you'd be told that they can't do the discount anymore because of yet another collapse, or that now you need to have shockwave popups (Omg I hate those, considered actually totally disabling shockwave forcibly.)

LMAO, Thats nothing you should see the stats on 2 Messageboards that I am on.

1 - 1.2GB Transfer a MONTH
2 - 450MB Transfer a MONTH

What you are seeing for their site is not all that much at all honestly. But the site is really active I will say that much. Just keep this in mind when thinking of the transfer ammounts that you are looking at. Most 95% of eqtraders.com is <b><i>TEXT</i></b>. I would assume that they are getting over 2million hits a month. If they would like I can make them a unabtrousive counter for all pages that can be appended to the end of each page to track that. but hits on the main site alone would blow some peoples minds. This IS the premier trade skill messageboard and website for all of Everquest hands down.

Psychosis, I don't know about anyone else, but I hit the site about 4 - 20 times a day depending on what I'm doing. Checking forums, recipes, looking for stats, showing/looking something up for a fellow tradeskiller or guild mate.

If I didn't have this site, I'd have nothing to do at work since all I do is babysit computers.

Thank the Gods of Xegony for EQTraders.

P.S. Varlik is agnostic so doesn't worship any of the gods.

I post on 6 messageboards a day. So yea I understand where you are comming from there.

Does anyone know of a decent host that supports ASP with a SQL back end? Our guild site desperately needs to find one.

We can't do MySQL, which I know many of you would suggest. It simply will not port over given the way the site was designed. We have to use the Micro$oft technology.

thanks in advance...
