    In search of a New Offshore Webhost !

    Need a trusted/reliable offshore web host.

    *My current web host has no issue with my CPU usage, just some copyright problems*

    Specifications I'm looking for:

    150000 - 200000 MB Bandwidth
    1 Main domain, 5 parked
    4000 - 5000 MB Disk space
    Moderately active Vbulletin forum ~ 443 (users online. (110 members and 333 guests) Only about 30-40 of these users are actually actively using the forums.
    Cpanel host is a must have.
    Preferably in Russia, france, Asia.(Anywhere is good as long as I don't get DMCA issues and major packet loss.)
    I won't be hosting warez links, just client download links for a game server.


    I'm currently thinking of going with either

    http://www.privatelayer.com/cpanelhosting.php
    or
    Possibly trying my old host, altushost (Have had some really bad times with their uptime, and their loads being extremely high.)

    Hopefully someone can suggest something better.

    Can you also provide some additional information such as budget? It seems like network uptime is now very critical to anyone out there

    Up time will be a big issue for you if you go into some other countries you mentioned.

    $15 - 35 each month seems okay.
    Yup, I need at least a 96-99% uptime.

    Your visitor rate is too high for shared hosting, to be honest. If you can spend $35/month, you might be able to get a low-end VPS, but that will also be slow.

    I think he's going to host some copyrighted material for people to download. But isn't that warez ??

    "I won't be hosting warez links, just client download links for a game server."

    Game server client, they don't want us linking to files on a file host.
    The real game itself is free to play, they just don't want the files republished in way or to have been reverse engineered.
    Which I haven't, they were published by members of a community forum (not in our staff), and all we're doing is linking them to a client download which was free to begin with.

    The DMCA also stated that we housed a pirated game source, which we don't.
    It's a download link, registration site, and Forum.

    "Download, copy, reproduce, republish, upload, post, transmit, modify, distribute or publicly display any of the content or information contained in the Service except as expressly authorized by this Agreement;"
    "You may not modify, publish, transmit, transfer, sell, reproduce, upload, post, distribute, perform, display, create derivative works from, or in any way exploit such content."
