Hey guys!
Anyone got any bandwith reports? How many users etc? How mutch traffic you transport pr day or something?
I got 20 videos and Im barely using any space.
I got around 10 users and Ive only used about 2 percent of my monthly allowance.
My hosting is 5 GB storage and 50 GB transfer per month
If your site is heavily visited and videos heavliy viewed, your bandwidth usage is gonna got through the roof.
Meh A fair Amount of bandwidth and money i tell ya.
Sounds like shared hosting... did you have any trouble setting up the script?Quote:

Ask them how much bandwidth they will give you if you buy a dedicated server from them paying more than $150 per month. Answer will be 2000 GB or some thing like that. This is because that is the price. They sell 250 gigs for $3.99/month only because they know no one is going to use that much. If you do, they will be hosting you at a lose.Quote:
250 gigs for $3.99/month is overselling.
I was also thinking about how fast the connections are. I have not yet opened it for the public on my site. We have 10.000 uniqe users pr day so i guess it will pull alot of load when we launch the video part.
My dedicated server uses 1400gb a month, with 10,000 members and grows rapidly. Im also on a 100mb pipeline, costs an extra 20 a month.
Are there 10.000 members on the vshare clone script? Or all in all.Quote:

My site has 11,662 members atm grows 300 a day, my 100mb pipeline equally shares the bandwidth according to users online but when i watch a video with 100 members also watching videos i still get around 400mb a second download to watch whatever vid i want.
But if you want a tip from someone who has a successful site that grows rapidly continually update servers as you can afford, we upgraded from shared after we had 50 members then when we hit 500 we got a dedicated then at 1000 we put another gig of ram in and updated to a 100mb pipeline, As of now at 10,000 members we are in the process of gettn the top of the line server (dedicated) with 4gb of ram 2500gb bandwidth a month and 100mb pipeline, this is only so we can have 2 dedicated servers running in a cluster till we get the dns shift sorted then we will run 2x of the top dedicated servers in a cluster on 2 100mb pipelines with 5000gb monthly quota.
By 20,000 members we want 3x dedicated servers running 100mb pipelines in a cluster.
I have a dual 3.0ghz xeon with 4 x 15000 rpm scsi disks in raid10 and 4gb 667mhz ram, dedicated.
Servers are not that expensive to lease im just worried that the traffic peak will be pretty hugh. I only have a 8mbit dedicated connection. Its serving 100.000 unique users pr month and using 30% of the capasity. Im kinda worried that i need like a dedicated 50mbit fiberoptic connection to our serverhall to keep the videosite up to date.
With that traffic you will be good with the dedicated server maybe up the pipeline speed to a 100mb.
Yes probebly a good idea! Do could you check the transfer rate on your networkcard and report how many online users it was at that time?Quote:

Jeesh !!! You'll break the internet you know :lol:Quote:

That's WHY it's such a good option for high-bandwidth video sites. You get the low rates that result from them over-selling their bandwidth.
And my experience has been with them, never one second of down time.
They'll more than likely pull the plug on a site that appears to be running high bandwidth content. You may get one month using 250gb but more than likely they'll find a reason to boot you off their service after using that much. ;)Quote:

25TB data transfer monthly for just 54$ a month.
LOL
This place is a knockoff of godaddy....using much of their same site layouts and same packages. I bet they are resellers and buy from godaddy.Quote:

This is godaddy owned domain name. So they must be reselling. Godaddy do not allow mencoder, ffmpeg on shared hosting. With godaddy, only way is to get a VPS or dedicated.
Does anyone know what bandwith peaks you get? And how many users?
In an avreage how much speed does 10 users consume?
Where are you getting your hosting from.Quote:

10 users... really depends on how much they view.Quote:
