Help Hossting - 04-25-2003, 03:28 PM

Hello I am buying Web Hosting and Registering a Domain in the site:

And I was wondering if I ordered the bronze pakage would this be good enough for a complete web page using PHP-Nuke???

it should be But maybe you'd be better off with the silver package.

But for the price........... 7.95 a month, thats kind of dumb.. Do you get any service for free?

I'd consider checking out http://www.ipowerweb.com . I'm currently with them already paid for a year. WHat i got for 95.49$ usd. A year with my domain, (they set it up for free) 500mb space. 30gb Bandwidth per month. 3 SQL databases. Well just check out the site, its a pretty sweet deal and their support is great. Hope that helps you out. laterZ

TO answer your question though yes the bronze would be enough to host a nuke site. Most of my nuke sites even with photo galleries installed rarely get close to 50MB of disk space. And most of the nuke sites I host (I have 3) have between 20 and 75 users and my bandwidth has never been above 1GB a month. Now I am sure a site that hosts a lot of downloads like nukemods probably uses a lot more bandwidth, but if your site is just going to be for a small userbase that bronze package should be plenty. Also better to start low and then upgrade to a bigger package if need be. Most hosts let you upgrade for no charge, you just start paying the higher rate for the package you choose.

I'll go ahead and throw in a promo for my host though while I am here. The host you are looking at uses the Ensim control panel whereas mine uses Cpanel which I find much easier and more useful to use. Really comes down to a matter of personal preference. But my hosts plan looks to have everything that that bronze package had and it is slightly less expensive at only $30 bucks a year. Check out Jatol.com The coolest thing with them is they have a 7 day trial period as well something I haven't seen any other hosts offer. So you can sign up and test drive the functions and features for 7 days to see how thier service is. You can even upload your whole site during that time if you wish. Then if you like it you pay them through 2checkout.com and start ftp'ing up your stuff. If you don't like thier service then you just walk away no questions asked. Pretty slick. Also the admins there are very helpful and responsive. They answer questions via a help desk, Instant messenger, or thier forums. Regardless any issue I have had I have never had to wiat longer then 10 minutes to get an answer. Most hosts you email them and you are lucky if you get an answer in 24 hours. They are the best host I have found to date, and I have hosted with a few.

I think 6.00 for only 50MB of storage is kind of on the high side personally.

Very sharp looking website though. Would probably catch my eye. But the one thing I see nothing about is where are thier servers located? Are they in a datacenter with redundant OC3 connectivity right on the backbone? Or is it hosted in his garage on 56k dialup Ok so that is a little severe but when looking at hosts that is one of the key differentiators as well. And I think the ones that don't brag about the features thier datacenter has probably means they aren't in a datacenter.

Also they have no forums where you can discuss with thier current clients what their quality of service is. At jatol all the clients talk in forums such as these. So you can read through thier and see what the real current clients think of them as a provider. Just things to think about. Regardless before I sign up with any host I try to talk to someone there first and ask them some questions. Just shoot them an email and see how long it takes to get a response.

Sure they will register a domain for you I think that is $15 for the domain but don't quote me on that I don't work there

I host 3 nuke sites on Jatol and I am very happy with the speed of all my php related sites. They have a one button Nuke setup script as well like many other hosts claim but I will tell you that scipt is way outdated, Nuke 5.6... yuck. Those self install scripts are provided by Cpanel so the host has no control of the version. Cpanel has said they will update soon, but who knows when that will be.

But really I would go there and if you have ICQ, MSN, or Yahoo messanger go to Jatols support page and contact Faldran he looks to be online right now. He would be more than happy to answer any of your questions.

No I was just telling you the One button install that sites advertise as having is 5.6, just like at mtechmedia you posted at the bottom of all thier plans it says One Click install scripts for phpnuke, OS, Invision. You will see something like that on any site that uses CPanel listed as one of thier features. However, you can upload anything you want. I am running 6.5 there just fine.
