Users Registered Today: 557 - is that an error ??

Make sure you have a backup of your database this time - I seem to remember a previous panic move ......

Unless you're offering free porn, I sincerely doubt it.

asmallorange.com?

thats my old host crap

I've used serverbeach in the past with good luck, go with a base dedicated unit - you don't have enough going on to overload it.

Most of us aren't going to drop quotes into your lap, you'll have to do some work to get what you're after.

finaly sum real comments

i suggest hostgator.com, as they can handle vbulletin installations softly, they have a vb forum as their support forum... and the guys have really good reviews and rating actually... and i even got no points for the referee..lol

tryed them i got a quote from them they said cos i have 50active members i need dedicated

One minute you have 557 people signing up in one day, the next you have just 50 active members ? Makes no sense.

I can't imagine why you would need a dedicated server for just 50 active members - but still - have you thought of getting a VPS ?

and it would help if you mentioned what your budget actually is.

budget in USD is around $30 a month
uk around ?20

i think you smoke a lot of carpet in the last days...

i'm actually hosting/managin 43 or 44 vb forums on hostgator, with no extra costs, and i can resume the activity to about 500 unique active members per day for each forum...

maybe your language barrier is higher than you think and you're not able to say the things properly, because actually, nobody understand your goal here!

50 active a day is actually wrong..it's more around 180-250 active per-day. Sometimes the registrations spike from referrals, thats why we have had a bunch of sign-up's today.

Don't believe him? Then believe me :)

I'm the "Technical Administrator" there. Please, from this post on, keep replies to the topic's purpose (host recommendations).

Thanks,

Well it's hard to give suggestions when the baseline varies so much...

With something so minor as 180~250 active per day, your choice in hosts is nearly limitless - that's not exactly a huge site? Is there something specific missing in the data here?

What's the background with being kicked off repeatedly? Hosting illegal material? Short of porn, or torrents of some nature, how does one produce a spike of 2x the average regulars per day for one day of registrations?

not exactly a huge site? i only mentioned active, I didnt mention hits/guest's, which soars to 10,000 a day. The reason it's being "kicked off", is nothing to do with it's content..it has nothing illegal by any Country's standards. No "torrents, pr0n, etc".

As for registration: it's because of our user-base..they like the site so much they refer their friends there..whats so hard to understand about that?

Dedicated server. Geez.

You will not find a shared host that will take you on and be reliable. You need to realize that soon.

Also if you would manage the site better and not waste space showing the 500 members who registered today, which takes up a lot of server resources, you could probably make the best out of what you got now.

Good luck finding a reliable web server to take your traffic at 30 dollars a month. That is almost laughable when you have scripts installed that waste server resources.

If you supposedly have that much traffic - then stop being cheap with the host... It's a pretty simple equation - just pony up the dough and stop bottom feeding through hosts to try to save a few bucks - you've seen the net result of those actions already.

in response to Brent and jlaine:

i'm just their technical Admin..i know their sites stats, help keep it running smoothly, install stuff for them, etc..i dont pay for the hosting..Though I wish I could help him out, I can't..i'm very short on funds for my own site at the moment.

Pushing stuff on you? I'm only stating the obvious - there is no insult intended - I'd think as the technical administrator you'd have expressed these ideas to the owner already as it seems like you've been put into a bind with A) the customers desires, and B) the customers budget. Personally I'd be saying sacrifice - either via cash or elimination of some site trinkets, but something has to give.

It's simple logic - if you're using relatively reliable hosts already that are kicking you off for consuming either too much processor time or bandwidth, then the only step you have left is either dedicated/managed or colocated - none of which will start even close to the $30/mo mark.

I am not pushing stuff on anyone. I am telling you and him how it is.

You wont find anyone to take your site for 30 dollars a month. You need a dedicated server.

If he needs this to be translated into some other language for him to understand that then someone needs to.

What you need to do first is clean your site up imo. Stop wasting resources on showing all 500 users on the main page that registered. Why do you not just show the number. What the hell is the point of showing each user. Who cares who it is? No one is going to go down that list and read it. It is just a waste.

asmallorange is hardly crap. However your site layout is.

Excuse me? that layout is pretty nice, actually. Don't go bashing other people's work..how'd you like it if I went to you're site and said "oh, i wont join you're site because it looks like crap".

That wouldnt be so nice, now would it?

now, to jlaine: yes, I worded my post wrong, thats why I edited it approx. 1 minute before you posted. However, Thug is not online at this time because of the time difference (he's in UK, im in US, etc.), or i'd be making these suggestions..however, it's not easy letting him know how things work..he wants everything, but doesnt understand about the server loads..i've tried telling him to cut back on ad's, and hacks due to a high server load, however he kept adding more and more ad's and hacks without letting me know.

Anywho, this is my last reply for the night; I have to be up early for some Test Drive's (i get a car in about a week, woot, lol).

Try site5.com
Have been with them for 3 years, have never been let down by them, as opposed to the countless I have been let down by in the past.

How does a thread about someone in need of hosting end up with this statement??

He's asking for hosting, not a review on his skin. That comment was completely unnecessary and very childish.

It boggles my mind the way some of you people on this website behave.

Tyler, why are you struggling to pay for your own site? You only have about 5-10 members on your site. The one with the Blue Ball as the logo in the center.

I wouldn't use asmallorange either, I left them and there very overrated I thought after using them. And as others have mentioned you ain't gonna get anywere with ?15 a month searching for a dedicated host, if thats all you can afford you might as well forget it. It seems like your site has grown well, but your now at a point were you don't have anything like the funds needed to let it expand onto the server you now require.

If thats the case, maybe you might be as well closing your board to new registrations and removing a few resource hogging mods and features for the time being to try and stay shared host until you can expand.

Explain the situation to your members and if they do not want to see the site go offline they will donate....

As I mentioned above, if I was him seeing as funds are not there. I would close the board to new registrations and maybe even block bots with an .htaccess file for the time being as they will eat bandwidth, as well as remove some resource hogging mods and features. To both save on bandwidth and resources, and then maybe he can stay with a shared host as he is until he has the funds to do something about it.

When he unfairly called a hosting company like asmallorange crap due to his own incompentance.

I call it like I see it, deal with it. This guy obviously doesn't get it that it is not his hosting companies fault that they cant handle a high traffic site on shared servers.

His layout is crap, he has scripts running that only further his problems.

There are very little options for him.

Either get a dedicated server that is meant to handle that traffic and his scripts he insists on running.

Remove the registration hack and all 500 members being displayed, optimize his forum settings, remove the who is online, turn off thread view counts.

There are many things he can do to keep his fourm online if he can not afford.

Someone with as much touted traffic as him needs to figure out how to profit fast or he will be seeing red for a long time

Blue ball in the center? you've lost me..my site is acutally offline, lol..no forum has been setup yet because of time constraint's with current things here at home (cleaning up the house, making it ready to sell), and turning 18 in less than a week, so i've put my site at the bottom of my to-do list, lol.

Brent: Please stay on topic..nobody needs you're nonsense in this thread..Don't have something useful to say? then don't say it.

- Tyler

P.S.: I know I said i was going to bed..well, i couldn't sleep, whoopie for me eh, LOL.

lol go ahead and go to my site and call it crap and not join. I don't give a damn. I manage my site quite well thank you. I have so much more less traffic than you claim to have, I have a dedicated server that costs me 99 dollars a month, and I have a monthly revenue of 400+ dollars a month right now. That's more than you can say right now isn't it?

If you want advice do what I say.

Turn off all the features that are not needed. The useless registration hack for starters.

Can you please give me one good reason for showing 500 names on the forum home of new members? What purpose does that serve?

Turn off automatic threadd view updates, remove whos online, remove whos online from forumdisplay and showtread as well.

Have trouble seeing?

What do you want me to say?

Do you want me to kiss your ass and tell you you are doing a great job in my eyes? You aren't. It is crazy to have that hack installed on a server when you are complaining about a host kicking you off due to server resources.

Think what you want. There is not a shared hosting company that is going to provide what you want. So stop wasting your time looking.

I have plenty of useful advice to give, just not what you want to open your mind too. You want a easy cheap way out without changing your site.

Have fun with the search. It will only lead you to many many server changes in your future, as you continue to get kicked off one company after another.

I recommend spending 150 a month for a dedicated server once you figure out how to make money.

Actually, I make $900+ a month at my job away from the net.

- Tyler.

So? I am talking about websites here. I don't care what you make away from this website.

I wasn't even talking to you anyway. I was stating that he should be able to make money from his site, if I can manage to pull that much profit from mine, with less than half the traffic
