Hi

I`m looking to host a website, ...for at least 1 week I`m reading all the posts and until now I don`t know how I have to do it.

The site characteristics:
- 10-15Mbt
- about 40 000 un. IPs with about 450 000 page views/month (each page=5-7Kbt; no porno, no warez, no illegal),
- 50% of them are from North America.

I don`t know what bandwidth is needed, what host to select and how to setup a domain name. And I don`t know what is the price for this volume of hosting.

Surely I`m looking for a low price because I`m from a poorest country in the world and every cent is counted for me.
(actually the site is hosted at a free host which do not give me the possibility to get some attractive advertisers. All this venture is to go on the advertisement business because my basic profession give me about 20$/month in my country).

Sorry for possible mistakes and,
Thank You very much.

:eek2: Where is that?

Anyways, for 450,000 views at 6kb each, you need about:

450,000 * 7 = 3,150,000kb

3,150,000 / 1,024 = 3,076MB

3,076 / 1,024 = 3GB of bandwidth per month

If you have pictures with the site, that's more than that.
