View Full Version : Dedicated Hosting for a single site
gaston 12-20-2005, 04:38 PM | I have interest in acquire a dedicated hosting with control panel for a single site, the traffic is about 6K visits/day, with heavy usage of email for at least 30 accounts, Which hardware is the best option? I think a P4 with 1GB ram goes fine but tell me what you think Thanks a lot! |
sTag-Dan 12-20-2005, 04:44 PM P4 system with at least 1GB ram should be sufficient enough. |
gaston 12-20-2005, 04:58 PM | What about a Celeron? Thanks |
sTag-Dan 12-20-2005, 05:03 PM That should do OK and I presume 500GB bandwidth should be more than enough. |
gaston 12-20-2005, 05:12 PM Thanks, so a 2.53 celeron with 1gb RAM will work fine? sorry for the doubt but some of the mail users have accounts of more than 100 mb, the mail is for business use. THANKS! |
sTag-Dan 12-20-2005, 05:25 PM Yes. It should work like a charm :) |

Yes, the Celeron 2.53GHz with 1gb/RAM can handle the load just fine :) |
gaston 12-20-2005, 05:31 PM Thank you for you advice, now i need a provider with a great technical support and response time, can you give some advise with this? |
sTag-Dan 12-20-2005, 05:34 PM There are tons of providers out there with the exact setup you need. Depends on your budget and if you're willing to pay alittle more with 'great' technical support and excellent response time. Some provide 24/7 technical support and some only provide it during business hours. |
gaston 12-20-2005, 05:42 PM OK, so with about 100-150 USD could you tell me the best providers with good 24hs technical support? thanks |
sTag-Dan 12-20-2005, 05:57 PM That's an excellent budget range. You'll find some providers out there that offer 24/7 technical support and possibly fully managed or semi-managed services included with their servers.
You may want to take a look at http://www.iWeb.ca. |
gaston 12-20-2005, 07:14 PM i was interested in Rackspace but they offer excelent products at a high rate, so i thinking in dedicated now with plesk, anybody has references of they? |
sTag-Dan 12-20-2005, 08:01 PM Plesk is more expensive than cPanel but if you're more comfortable with it, go ahead. You may have to spend more than what you initially suggested. |

gaston 12-21-2005, 10:12 AM One more question, somebody has references of DedicatedNOW? i thinking in purchase a dedicated server from they |
Jeremy 12-21-2005, 10:21 AM single site, can i ask why you need a Control panel them?
for some people that don't wish to spend "a lot" of money for a control and wish more then webmin :p i have them install DSM http://zervex.com/ 10 dollars a month, they have a free one single user.
I don't know how dedicatednow is but *searching* is available.
ev1servers.net maybe... middle of the US fine for single web hosting. |
sTag-Dan 12-21-2005, 10:54 AM There are TONS of reviews about them. Do a search. There's a current post on Dedicated Forums regarding iWEB and DedicatedNOW. Take a look at that. |
gaston 12-21-2005, 02:25 PM I call a couple of dedicated hosting providers today, they haven't antispam filters, someone knows a host that provide spam filtering at datacenter level, this is not inside the server |
efarmer 12-21-2005, 09:38 PM Idologic.com will be a great choice for quality support, quality server and quality bw. |

Some providers will offer anti spam filters for 1 domain and you will need to pay extra for more domains. A good Anti-Spam appliance and service is expensive to maintain. We use the Barracuda Anti-Spam Appliance (http://www.barracudanetworks.com/). You can also use exteral email filtering services as ZeroSpam (http://www.zerospam.ca/index_eng.php) for exemple.
I think you do not really have to mix anti-spam providers with dedicated server providers. If you want anti-spam look for the best anti-spam provider and if you want a dedicated server provider look for the best dedicated server provider.
