I have to find one. I dont care if its $30 a month, I cant have this limit, I cant afford dedicated right now, my site has only been up for about 1 month. Does anyone know any?

Have you considered a VPS?

[Theoldwiz]

Im not all that great at this, what is a VPS and do you know any good companys that host them?

Thanks!

25 connections is a small amount but are you getting errors about users not being able to connect due to Max connections being reached?

[Theoldwiz]

No, but Im worried it could start

I'd wait for it to start before expanding, you'll only get 1 maybe 2 at a time when it starts, as explained in another thread, just because you're max_connections is at 25, doesn't mean you can't have more then 25 people online at your site at a time.

A virtual private server or VPS (also known as a virtual dedicated server, a VDS, or virtual server) is a method of partitioning one physical server into multiple servers. Each one of these servers has the appearance and capabilities (with it's own allocated resourced) as it if were running it's own dedicated server. Each VPS can run its own full-fledged operating system, and each server can be independently rebooted.

Does anyone have any good US companys to host them with? :D
