Dedicated Server For $25/mo

Hey is anyone using this:

https://store.prohosters.com/signup/starter/

It looks like a good plan for only $25/mo if you need under 200 GB monthly bandwidth and it seems fully managed.... is anyone using this?

Can someone tell me if there are any problems with the specs.... I just want to run some php sites and some html sites. Im a novice.

Wow! How ironic? Pornographers caring about animals. What about the women that get abused in the vids? Do you care about them?

DAMN THAT CAT!!!!!!!!!!!! i'll never forget when ted himself responded to the cat allegations, now that was funny.

As regards this VPS thing, doesnt anyone think it looks like a good deal and can someone give some idea of what kind of performance that thing would give?

This would concern me:

"128MB RAM guaranteed"

besides that, it looks like a good deal.

Ive used VPS servers before and I was always disappointed with the speed.

Well yes okay that worries me but can it be any worse than the virtual im currently on?

What impact will 128MB RAM have??

Until recently I was paying $35/mo for a dedicated Pentium 133 with 64MB RAM, 2GB HD and 5 GB of transfer per month. I am not joking about the specs.

I used it for secondary DNS but in the end it wasn't worth paying $35 when I could get a P4 2.4GHz with a decent sized HD and oodles more transfer for around twice that monthly fee... the latter server could do a lot more than just DNS...

Found this one for $29.95, but you probably get what you pay for.

http://www.serverpronto.com/

. AMD 2000+
· 256 MB DDR RAM
· 40 GB Hard Drive
· 200 GB Data Transfer
· 100Mbps Connection

I presume it's unmanaged.

here's another, 10 UK pounds for a P2/400MHz with 192MB RAM / 6.5GB HD / 20GB transfer (obviously brand spanking new hardware )

http://www.lowcostdedi.co.uk/

I dunno why I'm posting these, someone is likely to actually sign up and get badly burned... oh well, here goes the submit..

why should someone get burnt from it?

Also doesnt the Prohosters deal look so much better seeing as its also managed and a fairly well established company?

To offer a server that cheap they need to seriously limit costs. In the case of the UK mob it's obvious they're using obsolete hardware (would you really trust the mechanicals in a 6.5GB hard drive which is probably from around 1999ish?)

Serverpronto looks better in that regard, but some web research suggests that you'll end up incurring extra costs sooner or later anyway... phantom traffic pushing up your included gigs and mysterious crashes that require a $29 fee to reboot.

And if you think $29 for a reboot is bad, my old $35/mo Pentium 133 server cost $60 to reboot out of hours. I found this out the hard way.

I've had great service & support from hahahahahaha for many years and they are well priced. You can get better pricing and al-a-cart if you contact them via ICQ usually.

I have 7 servers behind a private switch with backup drives and a ton of bandwidth. I think my Unix servers run me $200 a month and my backup drives are free. They also colocate my Google Mini servers for next to nothing, just charge me for power.

I've used Webair, ATCI, and a couple others and am totally satisfied with hahahahahaha. BTW I've never waited more than 2 minutes to receive a response via ICQ, phone, tickets, or email.

I learned a lesson back in the day... Same lesson as everyone else...

If you want to make REAL $$$ you must pay to play.

I used to make $1700 a month in this game... I used virtual hosting plans and bullshit. I then bought my own server, paid for scripts instead of using free ones and instantly went up to $4K two months later.

What changed? Speed. My surfers didn't have to wait for shit to load anymore.

Now check out the URL in my sig and get some cheap traffic to boost your ability to trade and what not.
