Hi everyone. Myself and 20 other people are preparing to set up a huge gaming site, but we still haven’t found a suitable host. Our requirements are quite extensive and we have little money available to spend on the hosting. If any of you know of a host who can do what we need, then please say… I’m getting desperate now.

Our requirements are:

- Minimum 500Mb Disk Space
- Minimum 25Gb/month transfer (bandwidth)
- Unix Host
- MySQL
- PHP4
- CGI/Perl/C++ Allowed
- Web Usage Statistics Software
- Control Panel
- Minimum 50 POP3 E-Mail Addresses
- Mailing lists would be nice, but are not necessary.
- Location not important, UK, US... doesn’t matter!
- Maximum £150/year ($200/year).

Does anyone know of a host who can do that? I would naturally prefer a dedicated server, but that is ridiculous considering the limited funds, so shared hosting will be fine. As I have said, the country doesn’t matter. I would prefer the UK (since that is where I am), but any country is fine.

Thanks everyone… please help… this is so important.

$200 a year for 25gb a month traffic?

Sorry, I don't think you're going to get much for that price.
Assuming you use the 25gb a month, at roughly $1 per gb (cost to the host) that's at least $300 a year cost to them.

Hello,

Check out Tera-Byte:

30GB for $215/year. ;)

Gambling or games?

Gambling/gaming sites are notorious bandwidth users and if your planning a HUGE site, prepare for HUGE bandwith usage.

Its a computer games review site.
