I've been looking into a new server for DI.Net.

I have found a good one, however, it is a little more expensive than this one (more than I can afford).

Here's what I need to know. Would anyone be interested in buying webspace from me? Here's what I am thinking:

I will be able to set you up with a subdomain (ie. http://intrepid99.dodgeintrepid.net ) and your own FTP account. This way you can upload your pictures and site yourself (and won't have to bug me and wait ). If requested, you can also get an e-mail address, too ([email protected] - a POP account)!

I haven't set on how much space you can use, but I will be as generous as I can be.

I was thinking about $15/year. I would need around 15 people to sign up (and that wouldn't even be break even, but I can cover the rest).

Any thoughts or comments?

P.S. I'm gonna test the host with another site first, before moving. I'm working on that now...

Randy... how much does something like this cost? Like what do you get for what you pay for?

 

[IntrepidXJ]

It's gonna be $25/month

 

[DjPiLL]

For how much space? What do you get for that?

Also im curious... do you get stats on your site? How much traffic is the website get daily? Not necessarily in hits, but in MB sent and received.

$15/year, hell yeah I'm in, least I can do to support the site

 

[IntrepidXJ]

I was also thinking, that if you have already donated to the site this year, you will get a discount on your first year since you already showed your support by helping out

 

[p3]

if its only $15/yr im in too...do you take checks? ....tell me when you get it up and when you need the money, ect.

 

[IntrepidXJ]

I'd take checks, money orders, and PayPal...

 

[DjPiLL]

Damm I wonder how many websites they host on one of those servers? For $25 a month, they have to put on at least 10-20 websites.

 

[Si]

I`ll most definately dontate $15... What part of the site do you want redesigned for a discount? j/k

 

[IntrepidXJ]

BTW - you will get at least 20MB of space, possibly more...

 

[97purple_trep]

hey, Im in! I have a monthly account on freservers right now [no page quite yet] and will transfer whe you get up and running. anything to help. I want to try to set up a server of my own when I get DSL, kause I get a static IP. My dad brought home a sun Sparc5, that needs a cd rom. but I dont know a stitch about unix/linux, let alone how to set up a server/router? we shall see. I might have to turn to some of you guys

I used to work for a web design & hosting type outfit. We had 300+ sites on our most crowded server.

 

[IntrepidXJ]

Damn, that's a lot of sites. We're on a shared server now as well, so I shouldn't be worse (however, I am gonna test it first).

I can't afford a dedicated server (unless someone out there can hook me up), and if I hosted it here, I'm sure I'd kill my DSL

 

[y2kintrepid]

Count me in as well. Let me know where to send the money....Do you take a check?
