Hello ,

Could anyone help and list afew unlimited transfer / bandwidth hosts also some unlimted disk space hosts ..

Thanks :eek:

www.unlimband.com

You may want to do a search on the forums for "unlimited" It is not a popular word around here.

Yes ,

That is why were doing an anti-unlimited transfer/bandwidth site with also anti-unlimited disk space

Which is going to be constantly updated and with lots of features to review each host , view reviews , and a few others things ;)

Hopefully users would look at this site .... so it saves the :bawling:

Gonna take alot of working ... but hey :blush:

Try *****... they offer unlimited bandwidth. :D

Just make sure your web site doesn't use more than a couple of gigabytes, otherwise they will point frantically at their AUP and remove your web site....

CI Web Hosting

Interland, a large publicly-held company, recently began offering "Unlimited" bandwidth on most of their bigger plans as a "limited time offer." I recently closed a resold account there and, sure enough, the bandwidth limit (previously 10GB) came up on the domain details page as 9999GB.

But look at the terms of the offer and you'll see how even a non-fly-by-night organization has to put restrictions to make sure unlimited isn't really. For example (going from memory):

One IP address only can point to the site
One domain name only can point to the site
Doesn't include bandwidth from streaming media
Doesn't include bandwisth from database server
No MP3 downloads
No software downloads
These are all legitimate areas of business.

Feh! I'd rather pay for my honest bandwidth any day feel like I'm leaving at the edge of the law over the promise of "unlimited" bandwidth! :(

I think that's a very good point.

As you've noted, most of the hosts claiming to offering "unlimited" bandwidth or disk space come with ridiculous and restrictive terms of service that make the offering useless and a lie (not including the 12 year old running a server from his cable modem or brand new Donhost reseller account, of course).

It's certainly much nicer to purchase an honest amount of bandwidth where you actually know what you are getting and how much you can use. Same thing goes for disk space... After reading some of those "as long as you only store HTML files under X size, and not including JPG images over X..."... Well you know what I'm getting at. ;)

And besides, we all know there is no such thing as unlimited bandwidth or unlimited disk space.

"Unlimited" hosting is like an "all-you-can-eat" buffet where you wait on line for 15 minutes and the chef gives you: one strip of bacon
one fried egg
one piece of toast
one pat of butter
and says "now as soon as you get hungry again, get right back on line, :ya' hear" :)

Who the hell cares!! I get so sick of reading how other people should run their business from other competitors. Why don't you spend more time developing your areas of weakness instead of flaming or bashing others?

Terms are exactly that - that companies Terms. If a customer doesn't like it, they don't have to buy. Terms are not "hidden". They right there in the open. To read from small time competitors bashing others because the way they run their business and develop their Terms, is bulls***! I just looked - and you have Terms. Maybe not as strict, but still Terms. Sorry, if I offend you, but I don't even offer unlimited anything, but found your post offensive just from business principles.


"Unlimited" hosting is like an "all-you-can-eat" buffet where you wait on line for 15 minutes and the chef gives you:

This isn't even close. It is more like "per sitting" or "no sharing". Yeah, thats right ALL the all you can eat places have Terms.

Unlimited? Why do you need unlimted? Can't you just say how much you need? Say like 100gb or so.. There will never be unlimited.

:eek:

I dont want unlimited data-transfer for myself

I ( unlimitedtransfer.com ) will be creating a brand new and constantly updated unlimited transfer/bandwidth and also unlimited disk space list ..

:smash:
:uzi: Unlimited :puke: Unlimited

Causes to much :bawling: :angry:

I hope you guys will support this new project ;)

I hope you guys will support this new project

So you bought this from the host who use to run it? Also, how is this project different the the current one?

LOL. If you were referring to me, I was not telling anyone how to run their business. Rather I was pointing out the fact that the terms of hosts saying they offer "unlimited" bandwidth and/or disk space are often designed to confuse the customer on purpose into believing they will truly receive unlimited bandwidth... Because they know that people won't read all the terms, especially if they are presented in a complicated way. That is, to me, almost the same as lying (legally it may not be, but to the customer who just got his site suspended it is).

So just to make this very clear: I'm not telling ***** or anyone else how to run their business.

Not to mention that there is no such thing as unlimited bandwidth or disk space. There is no such thing as unlimited food either actually, but in that case there is only so much a single person can eat... But in terms of hosting, there is no such limiting factor.

Geez... :rolleyes:

It's not an issue of telling anyone how to do business, but of coming to agreement of the meanings of terms. Hyperbole just damages the reputation of the trade. What is a host to do when a customer asks "why should I pay you more for more transfer when somehost will give me all I want at no extra charge?"

Other industries have undergone similar issues, like bogus horsepower ratings during the superpower era of automobiles, or when stereo component makers fell over each other to claim larger and larger "wattage" for the output of their receivers. They used meaningless terms like "music power" and "peak music power" to claim power ratings that, if true, would have had wires melting and speakers bursting into flame.

After enough criticism from magazines and enthusiastics, a more realistic standard was agreed upon and suddenly power ratings dropped percipitously--but the point was all the manufacturers' ratings "fell" and there was an even playing field.
