    Non US Based Webhosts - Get In Here

    I'm looking at different hosting options. If you're a provider of webhosting services and are based NOT in the US (your servers must NOt be physically present in the US either), please let me know what you have to offer. Price is always important, but if you have good value in what you're asking, it will not go unnoticed. You must also be reliable (I'll google your name to see what others have to say about you) with good uptime, secure servers and responsive support. No bullshitters and wannabies.

    I'm looking for a managed dedicated, but will try you with a few sites on a shared first. Please post your links...

    :D

      http://saal-networks.de/cms/index.php?page=802

      Servers in Germany and NL, they have a high security server center (Titan) in Frankfurt. They host most of the pages of the European bigguns, like Magma, Videorama, etc. Mine too, BTW.

      Super service. Once my server HD shit the bed at 2.00 am and within an hour a new one was up and running.

      Hit me up if you need a better deal than what's published on their site or can't read it all the way. I can get you teh same prices in US$, which is a 30% discount.

        Not owned by me, but...

        http://www.leaseweb.com/

        Servers in NL. They have a very impressive record regarding protecting their customers. (for example, they refuse to cooperate with RIAA-type organizations and will go to court before taking sites down which they believe to be legal)

          dedicated located in Montreal DC. Specials from 89.00 Canadian

          Shared in Montreal also, but must be setup manually in Montreal.
          Automated setup is for US boxes.

            You probably meant Montreal, QC... right?

            Can you point me to your $89 dedicated special? How long have you been in business?

                These are pretty good deals. Are you sure you're offering 100Mbps for $99 a month? Where's the catch?

                Are these managed servers or unmanaged? How does a tech support go with your dedicated servers? Do you offer server monitoring and upgrades? How many IPs could a guy get with this plan? How about the hack protection? Do you have any Tier 1 connections? What was your uptime for the past 6 months?

                  There is no catch, but it isn't a dedicated 100 mbps line...
                  It is stated : 1000 gig/month on a 1000 mbps port ( instead of a 10 mbps )

                        Here's a few hosts to check out - they probably cover all levels/types of hosting and can't vouch for them other than the obvious GFY posters, but a few may be of use...

                              I totally forgot to mention that I need you to exclude Servage scam artists. Sadly enough, I hosted with them once and just as everybody else, I have been heavily burnt too. If you haven't yet, then just give it another month or tow and you will learn your lesson. The hard that is though. But you're welcome to try it on your own skin cause you won't belive, just like I didn't when I was told... Sad sad. Servage sucks

                                    Servage is the #1 provider of 500 responses... Which means your customers never see your website when you host with them.

                                        I would like to say - I can't believe people still fall for Servage bullshit, but I was one of them at one time and I wouldn't listen just the same. Until I learned it the hard fucking way.

                                        Any more overseas or Canada based webhosts?

                                            Perhaps its a dumb question but why outside the US ?

If you're a provider of webhosting services and are based NOT in the US (your servers must NOt be physically present in the US either), please let me know what you have to offer. Price is always important, but if you have good value in what you're asking, it will not go unnoticed. You must also be reliable (I'll google your name to see what others have to say about you) with good uptime, secure servers and responsive support. No bullshitters and wannabies.

                                            I'm looking for a managed dedicated, but will try you with a few sites on a shared first. Please post your links...

                                            There are many good adult web hosts in the states... it almost sounds like there are legal issues... if so what type then ?

                                              It has pretty much everything to do with legal issues, but all I can say is for you to consult with your own lawyer. i am not one and none of what I say should be taken as a legal councel. It is not in any way. I don't want to open a can of worms, because this issue is always misrepresented and creates needless drama, just remember - if you live in Canada, you must adhere to Canadian laws, not those of the US. FBI agents will not come knocking at your door if you don't have the 2257 page on your website, because their laws have no effect in Canada. On the other hand though, Canadian authorities DO have the authority to knock on your door to see if you comply with PIPA and PIPETA - Canadian privacy laws.

                                              It's not my purpose to be giving anyone brains as to what they should or should not do. You make your own decission, the best one of which is to consult with the lawyer familiar with jurisdiction in your area. And make sure you comply with your local laws, not the laws of some other countries.

                                                    Hiya,

                                                    My servers are UK based, as are the techs that monitor them 24/7 in rotation shifts

                                                    all dedicated plans come with 24/7 phone support as well as 24/7 email support.

                                                    Depending on what spec your after, Ive got dedicated servers starting at £60 /mo

                                                    Also if you wanna try out a shared plan for now, take a look at the site (in sig) if you want a slightly shared plan, can hook you up with that too.

                                                    One thing about Goodings Media is Im honest. I dont promise 100000 GB transfer a month and then suspend your account after 1%. I tell you exactly what you get and don't get

                                                    So far this month and last has been 100% uptime. Year average is usually 99.5+

                                                    A backup of the rack is made ever 6 hours.

                                                    cPanel is included on shared plans, but is extra p/month if you want it on dedicated

                                                    Oh and any shared plan, I'll set you up 7 days free, no oblicgation. You get to try out the full service

                                                    Hit me up (details in sig) or you can order paypal directly on the site

                                                      That's why I'm looking for non US based company that also has servers physically not in the US. Just playing it safe is all ;)

                                                      ...any more overseas or Canada based webhosts want to pimp their business?

Sadly enough, I hosted with them once and just as everybody else, I have been heavily burnt too. If you haven't yet, then just give it another month or tow and you will learn your lesson. The hard that is though. But you're welcome to try it on your own skin cause you won't belive, just like I didn't when I was told... Sad sad. Servage sucks
                                                        Been there for about 8 months now, pretty heavy traffic/server usage too. Service is excellent far as I can see.

                                                          I'm looking forward to first "Servage Sucks" thread from you which will be soon. I was exactly like that too. They were trying to tell me, I would not listen. If you were getting the kind of traffic you are talking about, Servage would have already suspended your sites. This is how they grow themselves. The reason why your sites are still up is that the traffic you are getting is not worth it yet. Just wait till you do something right and your sites actually take off. Somebody will harvest from that traffic, but it will not be you. And not only will you not have use of the traffic you were able to achieve, as a side effect, by the time you are able to set up an account on another webhosts, your sites will be killed. They will have been on line for long enough time to kill any and all traffic and SE ranking you may have achieved. Good luck using Servage. it will come like a bolt from the blue. No warning, no chance to do anything about it. But this is the way they like it. They need your traffic to help them grow. They're gonna put their link on your URL once the traffic you're getting gets worth it for them. If you reach that amount of traffic you will successfully promote Servage. Good luck...

                                                            I can't decide on that post whether you're talking out of your ass or not, and I don't know you.

                                                            There's still a way to find out tho. Quote a monthly, daily or instantaneous bandwidth figure, or a monthly or instantaneous cpu load that you're certain would cut me off. Then I can see which of the two it is.

                                                            You seem confused on one score, namely, I do not use them as domain registrars. Therefore, I could at a moment's notice point the dns servers for my name to any other host and the traffic would resolve there. So I don't see the "lose your traffic" concern.

                                                              funny, i always have to wait for rotation when i am forced to change dns servers suddenly, leaving many unable to reach my sites in the interim... dunno, maybe my registrar just sucks? i thought everyone had to suffer through rotation at times unless special planning was implemented beforehand.

                                                              oh, and servage sucks. out of the above i would chime in for exmasters though..

                                                                Of course you can change DNS setting any time with your domain name registrar. this part is not an issue. Issue is, that unless you own very simple sites, it could take a while to move your entire site over to another webhost. If you happen to have interactive sites, such as forums, then you will need to move your databases and there will be a lot of setting up to do before your site is fully functional on new servers. besides - a blow from Servage will come when you least expect it. You will likely not have another simultaneous hosting account set up while you're hosting with servage. Trust me, unless you have just some simple sites of 3 pages with non script html code, it will take you a while to set everything up on new servers.

                                                                But then again, why should I bother to explain to someone who knows better. Do I really need to put up with this shit? We live in a free world. You do as you please. I could care less whether you think that I'm talking out of my ass or not. Now go fuck yourself, Servage user...

                                                                  Mate, stop talking like spiegelau. I don't want to hear about they and them and the others and bolt of lightnings and undefined antecedents.

                                                                  State facts, and preferably, measurable facts.

                                                                  I said they work fine and have worked fine. You said my site is "probably too small". How small would a site be that'd be too small ? Or are you just talking ?

                                                                  I think the entire "steal your traffic" line of argument, is basically you not understand how this internet thing works. "simple sites" bullcrap. I happen to keep backups ready to go. You should too. Why not ?

                                                                  I happen to have forums, they happen to get a decent-ish ammount of traffic. I also run a wiki, it also gets decentish traffic. Doesn't prevent me from keeping backups. If and when I move, there's not a nebulous "lots of settings". I know exactly what I'm doing, and it's minutes overhead + whatever ftp takes.

                                                                  Why wouldn't I "likely" have a backup for a 6 dollar service ?! What's wrong with you. It'd cost SIX.DOLLARS. Why not get another ?!

                                                                  So basically, I don't trust you, I know exactly how long it takes being I did it all myself. Anyway, for your possible enlightment, and maybe because other people are also reading :

                                                                  Technology is technology. It serves a purpose. You will not pick your teeth with a power drill, and you will not cut a wall with a toothpick. If you have any sense.

                                                                  Servage is a toothpick. If you understand how such services work, you will get alot of bang for your buck. If you don't, you will cause grief for everybody up and down the line. So let's try and learn how shit works, shall we :

                                                                  Bandwidth is cheap, servers are expensive. Support is very expensive. If you want to host on the cheap, keep your cpu use to a minimum and don't need support.

                                                                  If you want to run complicated stuff, process images on the go server side, hog resources, by all means, get your own dedicated box. It's best for you and it's best for the poor host. If there's "complicated settings", by all means, get a support-oriented host, maybe even one that runs videochat coding class. You'll need it. These are all viable, usefull services, but not everybody needs them. The people who don't need them don't go out of their way to pay for them.

                                                                  Comment
