go daddy hosting?

does anyone have any experience with them? i havent necessarily heard nething good or bad about their hosting. i am looking at their virtual dedicated servers. it has a decent price, but i cant see newhere what kind of bandwidth im getting. 500 gb a month is all fine and dandy but if its on a 10mbit setup instead of a 100mbit setup then it wont do me much good. anyways, if anyone has any experience with their hosting id love to hear it.

i didnt realize people didnt like godaddy so much. are they that bad? i have a small board and i have there deluxe plan, and so far so good. i been with them for over 4 years but probably one or two years running vbulletin. the site goes down once in a maybe 4-5 months.

For a small board they might work out ok, but personally I would never recommend running vB on GoDaddy servers. If your board starts to get busy it will probably slow down alot and quicky. Their servers just aren't optimized for all that vBulletin can do. Remember, vB is typically considered for "big boards" or large communities. That doesn't mean they're aren't lots of great smaller ones, just means it was built with large communities in mind.

Do a search for GoDaddy at vbulletin.com and see for yourself what other members are saying.

can i place like siteground host a vbulletin board that will have 300+ users on it at one time very well? id imagine at those prices you dont have a lot of resources allocated to you (such as ram) that would keep the board running quickly.
