Re: Cheap FreeBSD hosting?

Hi

Solnet (Switzerland ISP) offers dedicated server with FreeBSD for about
38$ a month.

http://www.solnet.ch/produkte/server/dedicated/linux.html
(the support speaks/writes english)

Regards,
Thomas

 Since I desire to eat my own dogfood and continue to have my sites and
 pages Powered by FreeBSD I am back in the market looking for a new
 webhost.
 
 Currently I pay about $8/month for 12GB of storage, 300GB of
 bandwidth/month, and 5 MySQL databases. I need at least 4 databases
 (preferably more), and currently average 200-300MB/month transfer
 (although I peaked last year one month at 6GB for the month, but that's
 rare). I currently use 2.5GB but my space needs will gradually increase.
 
 I'd like to find a comparable plan at a webhost that uses FreeBSD servers.
 Pair is out of my league. I've had bad previous experience with iPowerWeb.
 Any others?

Hey Tim... my needs are the reverse: lots of storage, low bandwidth. I'm
already at 2.5GB and slowly growing, but average 200-300MB/month transfer.
Unfortunately I don't see a plan on your site that fits my needs, but


I never saw any requirement for WHERE this machine should be located, 
but we offer webhosting on FreeBSD machines (CPanel control panel). Our 
machines are located in Amsterdam. The storage is not the biggest 
problem for us, we can always work out some custom package for that if 
you're interested in non-US locations.

I agree. I was otherwise happy. However this buyout is going to be bad, I
fear. And the OS change makes me feel hypocritical since I have Powered
by FreeBSD all over my pages and actively promote it.

Thanks for the lead, but looks like I'd have to pay 5X as much per month
($40) for half the space on their shared hosting. :(

Those are for dedicated servers where the cheapest is $65/month. I guess I
don't see how that is a suitable-replacement for my needs and budget...?

Scott,

Not exactly sure what your needs are, but we have a shared hosting 
system that uses FreeBSD as its back end, and we offer competitive 
features and prices, with a really cool control panel...


Our main package for domains is only $12.99/mo and you get 750MB of 
disk, 15GB of transfer per month, and all the other features that you 
would expect from a high end web hosting company.


And we didn't just go out and buy someone's hosting platform software, 
we built our own from scratch, using FreeBSD as the base operating 
system to provide a fully redundant shared hosting system that can 
handle all of your needs.


Go to http://www.simplenet.com/ and check it out...

Tim.

I haven't seen anything with that much disk space that cheep.  I host
one of the sites I work with at:
http://www.quadrahosting.com/hosting/unix.html

They have been very good for us, but their plans offer way less disk
space than you are looking for.

$8/month for what you were getting was a steal.

I use http://www.aplus.net and am happy with them. (If you do signup with
them, please use my affiliate link so I can get a little money out of it
http://affil.aplus.net/Affiliates/click.jsp?bid=119aid=1002121 )

Prior to that I used sago networks (sagonet.com) but left them due to
reliability problems (their whole network was basically down for a day after
an upgrade)

And before that I used ev1servers.net. They were also good, but in terms of
OS its basically take what they currently have in inventory when you sign up
(they pre-install the servers rather than do it on demand)

All have sub-$100 dedicated offerings -- some close to $50
