majazac Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 well, more than a 150 MB I don't plan to use even being a fan site with audios and videos for download. But i could use some extra b/w... So much more likely I'll get a higher plan just for the b/w
Ashoat Posted April 12, 2005 Author Posted April 12, 2005 Well, some people have websites with photographs and stuff (you know, galleries...). Some even have movies. There are mp3 sites as well. So those sometimes need a lot of space. If you want to ever know how much bandwidth you need, you multiply the number of hits daily you expect for your site, and multiply that by the average file size of your website (in KB), and multiply that by .03. You'll get your needed BW in MB. For instance, a 20KB site (thats standard) getting 1000 hits daily (this site gets about 2000) will need only 600mb.
majazac Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 guess that if my site become popular, i'm going to need more b/w....
Ashoat Posted April 12, 2005 Author Posted April 12, 2005 Yup. But it takes a while for a site to build up popularity... what with user-to-user recommendations and stuff. I will probably have the upgrades and plans up before your site becomes the choice web portal on the internet
majazac Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 probably... But still... I'm part of a community with lots of well (very well) visited sites and they are going to link me.. But guess that I won't be exploding with visits this month
majazac Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 it is... It's like 15 or so websites were all the owners plus a lot of non-owners meets at a hub from the group... BTW, have you ever went into a hub called bsbhub? I have an impression of seing somebody with a nick similar to yours there....
majazac Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 i wasn't sure if his nick was djbob or djbobo... but... nyway... doens't matter
HerLoss Posted April 12, 2005 Posted April 12, 2005 Well, to djbob, how long did it take before this site started pickin up? Howd you get people to sign up when the forums were pretty much empty?
GameClaw_268 Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 for a month or two it was me, /\/\/\/, djbob, lappy, calvinator, wee, and a few other people I forget the names of. Then djbob decided to have hosting, and we got all these great members
awesomegamer Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 well its a great community now and i would like comming here if someone invited me just fot the purpose of a forum/community, but the hosting does pull in alot of attention
Ashoat Posted April 13, 2005 Author Posted April 13, 2005 Well, to djbob, how long did it take before this site started pickin up? Howd you get people to sign up when the forums were pretty much empty? well, to some I offered moderator positions, and some just came cuz they were my friends, etc. i took about a month for it to pick up, very soon after I submitted it to directories. now, back on topic plz!
awesomegamer Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 how about a file plan? for people who just want to host a file for their friend to check out... very small space, 5-10 megs, and 50 b/w... but its probably something to be downloaded alot. or maybe just use the upload thing
Ashoat Posted April 14, 2005 Author Posted April 14, 2005 whats the point though...? it'd too confusing for someone who just wants to do that. you know, ftp, and stuff.
