[convex7]

Hey all,

I have just recently developed 10 PHP proxies. I am now looking for a VPS hosting plan to host them for the time being. They currently have no traffic.


What i am looking for:

Managed (this is a must)
Bandwidth around 500gb-1000gb/month
Cpanel (just because i am familiar with it, however i will consider others)
At least 512RAM
Free setup
Easy to upgrade to another plan/dedicated etc
Budget: $100 max


That's about it, i am not too fussed about CPU as these sites shouldn't really be using up too much CPU resources (unlike my other sites)

*I was going to go with WiredTree as their VPS512 was perfect for me, unfortunately they do not allow proxies.

Thanks

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Draw up a short list of companies and drop their sales dept an email and see if they can do something custom for you. Your pricing/requirements should definitly be doable

the running of Proxy may be prohibited on some hosts so you definitely need to watch out from that.

I understand that Servint.com allows for proxies.

Hey a2b2, thankyou for the reply. I will most probably start doing that. However, if anyone on here has any experience finding such hosting, i would love to hear from them.

I can understand that eddy2099, i already have two CGI proxies and that was hard finding hosting for them. Thankyou for the input, they seem like quite a good company, i will add them to my short list.

You are really quite close to dedicated hosting.

Proxies will fare better on dedicated servers compared to VPSes.
There are a few sub-$100 dedicated servers then can be coupled with $20-30 external management to give you even more power/bandwidth.

Hey tsj5j, i know, the only reason i am not really going for a dedicated at the moment is that, i was going to use a vps for around a month untill i had some more income and then move on.

I see you own a proxy site, do you have a dedicated server?
