How are you hosting your Website ?

I mean For free or paid ..

For me I prefer every free thing .. not because I am greedy or do not want to pay 3 USD$

However I have no Credit card and cannot have a PayPal account because of my location, so I have no choice rather than this !! (FREE HOSTING is my choice)

Hey MM,

Lord know I love anything FREE! LOL :p But I find the free hosting usually means ads... ads... ads... Plus, since I've started this forum I discovered how much space a forum stakes up. Phew!

I host my sites and I pay for this. I would like being able to host them on my own server, but it would take a lot of work and money. I am not yet prepared to meet all these expenses, so I rely on someone else to host my projects.

The guy has stopped the offer, sry.
As for free hosts, mine is great. Just back up everything once a week or so(I don't do too much throughout the week.).

I rent a dedicated server. I have a fair number of sites now, so it's easier for me to just rent a dedicated server and host all my sites there. One of my sites is written in Java/JSP, so it definitely makes my life easier, if I just rent a dedicated server.

... wow. How many sites do you run, danrak? I run several sites using only one dedicated server, so I imagine that you might be running like a hundred sites? More? Also do you rent servers at the same hosting company or at different hosting companies?

I have roughly 8 forums, and a few more content sites. One of my forums tends to grow big enough to require a file/db server setup, although things have slowed there some. One forum hosts all my other sites, and I just got a new server today to try something out on. They are all hosted at the same spot.

A little off topic but does your forum actually pay for all of your servers???

Yup, but I did just upgrade too and working on combing some severs to reduce the amount. I hope to work it down to two servers. Although the last server costs as many as a few servers.

This isn't the gaming forum in your link I'm assuming. Can you post the link to that forum?

I run on a paid host, I also resell for that host. and Lyte also knows the owner of my hosting company. It's Blair the Admin at Geekstogo.

He also has Geekstogo hosting
Note this link is to my reseller page, however all information there is used by permission from G2Ghosting.
