Hi,
I'm looking for shared web hosting for a video sharing explicit adult website (like youporn).
Can you please help me ?
P.S. If adult related messages are not allowed please delete my message.
Regards.
F.

HostGator does allow adult sites but I don't know that a video sharing site would run well (or is allowed) on their shared hosting. You would need to inquire directly at HostGator.com

for any kind of video sharing, go for a VPS or Dedicated server because I highly doubt shared hosting providers will allow you to run a video sharing site like that, especially Hostgator, don't think that unlimited space hostgator provides is real, same goes for bandwidth

Actually, hostgator allow adult websites but requirements are covered only on dedicated servers.
Pricing isn't as good as I was thinking ...
So, I guess if there are shared hosting that support vidiscript or phpmotion ...

The lower price is 179$/month + 75$ for setup of modules required by video sharing script ..

I'm not sure that you need to be active in the search for shared web hosting account moreover with video file sharing requests.
If I were you I would start my search with at least VPS.
Adult content always attract lots of bandwidth.

Hosts that specifically target themselves at hosting adult content are going to charge a lot for it.
I suggest going to normal hosting providers and checking to see if they disallow adult content, and if they don't just ask them to make sure.
You'll save a lot over explicit adult hosting.

I think it's about time somebody actually answered your question.
Looking at their terms of service, Infrenion.com and APTHost.com allow legal adult material. They also support video sharing scripts in a shared hosting environment. As you mentioned explicit material, I would contact them first to see where they draw the line.
Imageleet.com, cirtexhosting.com also offer shared hosting with ffmpeg, but I havn't got time to read their TOS.
There are other hosts that support ffmpeg, but mentioned above are the ones I can think of at the moment.

I was going to mention cirtexhosting.com also. I haven't read anywhere that they do not allow adult hosting. I have one account that I use with their ffmpeg, specifically the free (automatic) install of phpMotion. Took less than 15 seconds to install.

Q: Do you allow Adult Content?
A: Yes, we allow legal adult content on our hosting services. The auto installer for phpmotion must be very handy.
