some help!
 

Can someone give me an estimate of how much approximately bandwidth you use per month?I want to gauge the cost of 'success'! http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/wink.gif

475 terabytes

Your cost of success should not be measured in money. You should gauge your success in happiness.

If your happiness is gauged in money, then you are a shallow, low-life, selfish prick....... just like the rest of us. WOOHOO!!!! I LOVE MONEY!!!! YEEEEAAHHHH!! MORE MONEY!!!

Got's to sell me some more pussy to make more MONEY$$$!!!!!

I measure everything in beers.

i measure them in meters

IM trying to fig how much bandwith Id need for me and my partners galleries and TGP?

ps

Ill let 'someone else' measure away when Im rich!!

Okay.... well, there's really no way anyone can give you a serious answer to this, because of all the variables that have not been set forth. Such as:

How many gallerys do you intend to have? 4... or 4,000?
How many places will you be submitting them to, minus how many actual list them...?
Are you planning on freehosting these gallerys or payhosting...?
Are you starting completely from scratch, or do you have traffic to feed into it already...?

Assuming you are starting from scratch, (since you're asking this question in the first place...) I would suggest that you seriously look into freehosting the gallerys, unless of course, you happen to be Mr. Gates' long lost nephew. Because while one gallery listing at, oh.... say three major TGPs like Zilla, Hun, & al4a.. can easily run you upwards of 10 gigs for a single day.... you may want to plan for more if you'll be submitting to some 900 different TGPs.... now... multiply that times 200 gallerys on your disk.

You get the idea.... http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/wink.gif

Thanks for answering!
We are doing that already on a free host but its getting banned from the top TGS`s.So 900 TGPs submittals say.How much do you reckon that would cost for bandwith?And with whom ?

Well, lemme put this into a cost perspective for ya...

I currently have somewhere around 30 gallerys active... not much really... I submit to around 800 tgps. I don't get listed at all of them, but most, and not even the major ones... like Hun. I currently burn between 15 and 20 gigs a day with those things. So... if you're going to pay host, and looking at the upper end of the scale for safetys sake, 20 gigs a day at an average price (because again... hard to answer without specific info) of $1.80 per gig... (some are more, some are less), you're looking at $1,080 per month to host gallerys. (and your pics better be optimized right to the freakin' brink...) Not a wise investment in my opinion. Unless you got some kinda magical gallerys that pull and convert like a mutha fucka... ;

Hmmmm http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/smile.gifyou could also buy alotafuckers for that money too !!
So paidhosting just for a TGP , how much you reckon?Worth a go?

Sure... just keep the tgp on the payhost and submit the gallerys from somewhere else with a recip link back to yourself mixed in... http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/biggrin.gif

I hafta go now, my mom is calling me...

Thanks for your help .Hope your mother didnt ban you http://bbs.gofuckyourself.net/board/wink.gif

Amp obviously you use a script submitter of some sort to post to 900 tgps? Could you possibly tell me which one you use and also could you post one your galleries so I can take a look at it.
Many Thanks

My God do you guys ever use a SMALL amount of bandwidth? I use about 250-300 Gigs a day. Only wish I could do as many page loads as I do with only 20gigs/day. course I am loading over 4,000,000 html pages a day with my galleries.....
