Hard to find host for autosurf. Can you help?


Hi there, I have searched and asked many hosters such as 1and1, clook, hostgator and and others if they allow auto surf site ( like paid to click) to be hosted on their shared or VPS server, but no luck so far.

So now i am open up this thread for you guys to give me opinion about what web hosting provider accpet that kind of site. I am looking for a hoster that will NOT edit my database as i heard of some hosters change the payment account from customers' to their.

My requirements is:
Good Uptime and Support
1GB space
10GB tranfer
Budget is about $50 per month

Any suggestion would be appciated.

Hi johnathans,
Here is an example --> alientrust.com

Basically, you pay the membership fee and you surf like 10 web pages per day and they give you some money, you just click on a URL then it will bring up a new page ever 15 seconds or so. It's like paid to click as i said, but this one is paid to surf.

Hope that helps.

I am a member of alientrust but you also forgot to mention how autosurfs are mostly ponzi programs. Basicly they are cleverly hidden investment programs that offer high returns. The return/profit comes from new members money. I am involved in a couple ( alientrust, compactsurfing, wiredsurf) as they can bring in a decent amount of money. But they also can cause problems for the webhosting provider as they are often targets of HUGE DDOSS attacks. Also if the site turns out to be a scam, the members will often blame the host and attack their provider.

A good example is alientrust. I "invest" $8000 and make a return of 130% after 13 days. Thats $2000 profit in just 13 days. I advise hosting providers not to get involved in hosting these types of sites, as like I said they WILL be targets for DDOSS attacks.

I would recommend you find a host that meets your requirements then ask them if they support this kind of site.

Hi there, my plan is start on shared host and move to dedicated server, as soon as we get enough members, so i suppose there should be no DDOS, but that is not up to me.

It is ponzi, but the other thing is that it clearly stated on the policy the money you put in is NOT INVESTMENT, it is the non-refundable membership fee and there is no guarantee on the return, it's is a bit like casino.

Sorry, but I just don't follow you. How can that protect you in any way from DDOS attacks?

Some kiddie hosts might think of that, and they're the more likely "hosts" to accept your site on their server.

To ldcdc, we will move to dedicated server before we get famous enough to be targeted by DDOS attackers.
