Dreamhost upgrades intro plan to 1 TB transfer a month for 8 bucks.
 

1000 GB transfer a month, increases by 8 GB/mo for as long as you stay.

20 GB disk storage, lots of other features. Great referral program (see the sig).

any time limit on this offer?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

just realized it was a spam, but still my question stands

I was actually looking into that earlier today. The code monster plan could replace my dedicated server and would save me a nice chunk of change.

where in Ontario you live? Toronto-NY here :)

that's a very good deal actually

I live in a suburb of Toronto, about 40 min North

Its a good deal but i guess that the downtime on their dedicated servers will be high.

why do you guess that?

I don't know if it expires but all their current customers got upgraded. I've been with them about a year and the only time they went down was during the downtown LA blackout this summer for about 2 or 3 hours. Other than that, if you keep a backup of your site elsewhere, it's a really good deal. I was having to watch my bandwidth, now I can relax and just get the traffic.

bump for the day shift....this was just announced yesterday by Dreamhost.

read the dream host TOS :D

another dreamhost spammer.

I just added all of dreamhosts ips into a shared & public blacklist database.

It`s quite a good deal.I`ve got a virtual plan with them and got my bandwidth tripled too.
Their support response time is lacking though (can take up to 24 hours) and their virtual plans have some restricting security measures that will break some scripts (Vanilla TGP for one).Dont know if their dedicated servers also have such restrictions.
But 4 TB of BW for $150 a month is a pretty good deal.

I focus more on the marketing side of things. So what I like is I can get 5 times the traffic as I could a few days ago for the same money. Maybe I'll buy some traffic from Joe or Choker now.

I used them for more than a year... they're good for family accounts, but not for business.. they don't have the stability..
a lot of TGP's also don't find dreamhost hosted galleries fast enough...

nice promotion...but I am very happy with my hosting company....

DH rocks, that's why I have them in my sig ...

Good deal, but it looks like they're fighting to catch up though. I'm very happy with my hosting company (much better features) so I'll stay. From what I've heard anyways, Dreamhost is extremely unstable with average to bad customer service. So I wouldn't switch anyways.

SOUNDS like a good deal, but if it goes down every other day it wouldnt be worth it

How the hell can they afford less than a penny a GB? Just smells like crap..

Promo code : gofuckyourself is the biggest rebate you can get

I offer 45 TB for 8/month .. .I garantee that you wwill be no more than 487958 sites per box ... Downtime will be excellent .... :1orglaugh

As bonus, if you buy now, it will be Canadian dollars !!!!!

DreamHost is for teeny bopper girls to host their Backstreet Boys fan pages.

Everyone in this thread needs to be bitch slapped a little to wake the fuck up!

Just get a dsl line with a i.p. and offer unlimited bandwidth on a dual xeon, I'm sure some suckers will sign up and you can fit about 1000 accounts on there. Reboot from your house so it's never down too long.

Good luck :warning

I dont know where all this dreamhost downtime shit-talking is coming from, but in my experience theyve always had great uptime

I just found a promo code for $97 off your bill. So I went through the checkout for their cheapest plan. One year for $120 total. Tried the cupon code and sure enough the total is down to $22 for one year of hosting.

Thats 1 terabyte of transfer each month for less than $2 per month. Do the math. Less than a quarter of one cent per gig.

WAKE THE FUCK UP.

The exact cost is $0.0018 per gig.

Forget those online IQ tests. Their signup page is the best stupid people test there is.

Sorry guys, I am SOLD OUT ! :1orglaugh

DreamHost - Only good in Dreams. :D

just did the same. cheap ass gallery hosting

too bad the affiliate won't get paid for any sales generated. The tos states no spamming reflink on forums.

signed up for dreamhost during their 7 year special. got a year for $9. Nice to see me get upgraded! I wouldn't recommend hosting anything mission critical as they do have downtime, email, database, etc. not enough to make a big deal out of for what I pay though. :)

oh yeah, i remember signing up for that too, back in like oct 2004 i think... a year of hosting for like $9.95... never actually ended up using the account though lol

Can this support my top hun listings?

bump for a great offer.

Jesus! Somebody stop this guy!

I posted a thread on this yesterday, but the responses weren't quite as critical.

Anywho, I've been with them for a few months (since August), and I haven't had any problems with them. There hasn't been any bogdown on their servers yet, despite all the b/w their giving away. My site still loads just as quickly as any other.

Sure you shouldn't run something like GFY on it, but IMO it's good for any tgp, mpg, freesite, etc.

Also, baddog, in case you were referring to my post when you said ANOTHER spammer, I wasn't spamming, I was informing people of a good hosting deal. It really was informative and useful for any webmaster who doesn't want to spend 100's on hosting. If you have a host, and are deadset on not switching, then why did you even click the thread?!?

I don't mean to get on your case...but if you're not interested simply don't click the link.

later
c-lo

Forums are the only place I ever see the ref links posted.

Code gofuckyourself will give you taht

You can get a year for like 12 $ with the code : gofuckyourself

fuck this makes me laugh. kinda reminds me of this 80's singer stephanie? lol :thumbsup

bandwidth is good but don't use them for important sites. just like lunar pages in this respect - sounds good in theory, but not necessarily in reality. both seem to have a habit of yanking "busy" sites from their servers without warning

jjjay, yep.. if your site is too busy they will drop you. they could offer UNLIMITED bandwidth and you won't have the chance to use it anyway.

I haven`t had a problem with them yet...the only bad thing is their support response times sucks balls.

It a shady business plan to oversell bandwidth and yank the sites that's actually start to use it. But it works and people support it, like the people on this thread. So it's not the businesses fault they are just doing business. And most of the new comer sites don't use hardly any bandwidth so they get plenty of continuing business.

It's a common business plan with hosting companies, but very shady. Just depends in what you think is right I guess.

got a gallery hosted on my dreamhost account on thehun, was good :thumbsup

that's it in a nutshell. it's basically a marketing gimic. stupidly though, the people who generally want/need that much bandwidth know it's a gimic, so they're kind of targetting the wrong crowd
