Hi,

This morning I was still a happy webmaster of a bunch of sites. Now I am a confused nutcase with bandwith problems. I calculated that it would be cheaper to move my 5 websites to a dedicated hosting service as long as it's about $100-150/month. Now I am looking into this but I cannot find any ASP dedicated hosting plan for this price. More than this I am starting to think that you need to be a server-wizard before you can start thinking about running a dedicated server. Is this true?

Are there plans where you have a dedicated host that is easy to manage? I am talking about the easy to use plans I am using now where I only have to worry about setting up email addresses and upload files using FTP?

Is it true that the packages that RackShack and LightOne are selling are all PHP hosting.

Excuse me while I do a little bit of :bawling:

How much transfer do you shift?

that's the main problem. I am looking at 80-100 GB/month. Any ideas?

I see technohosts offer the 75gb for $179.99/month. I am sure some others here will recommend dedicated hosts. I don't see that many hosts offering Windows 2000.

If you need the ded server to be easy, you might want to consider a managed ded server. You'll still have a fair amount to do yourself, but your provider will take care of a lot of the issues for you.

If you want to get offers, you should post in the requests forum. As for any particular provider, do a search for them on this board before you go with them...

Yes, I agree with Kwimberl. Do a search of the forum and you will see what other people think of hosts.
