I been to many places online some offer to little for your money
ait.com-lousy service,steals money your atm card
godaddy-sucks too hard to do
hostgator-good service but get very small space and bandwidth
ebay-full of scammers
so who can u trust?
if i bought a dedicated server can i run it in my home?
About to give up these so called good companies just over sell
causes your site to crash need reliable,service #1 no matter the plan you pick.

How much are they? The ones that big video hosting companies use like youtube.com justin.tv veoh.com dailymotion.com? Do they run them themselves or do they buy it off a company?

I was planning on getting a dedicated server from 1and1 since their prices are unbelievably good (and I have some trust in them since United Internet owns them (they own GMX Mail as well and its fantastic)) And I think all the reviews I am finding on the internet are heavily biased about them and put there by other hosting companies anyone out there have anything that is actually honest about them?

I’m trying to allow one website owned by someone else to put one of my videos or a link to it on his website. The problem is all of the video hosting sites such as youtube not only allow everyone to view them, but to share them also. I don’t care if people view the video through his website (that’s the point of putting it on there), but I don’t want the video to be passed on through e-mails, websites, etc. Yes, they can share it by giving the link to his website. That’s fine because it’s still ONLY on his website. I just want to grant people the ability to watch it, not share it beyond linking to his site. I’ve done searching and haven’t found a way this is feasible and possible, but wanted to ask to make sure. Thanks for any worthwile answers.

My company hosts websites and emails, an employee of mine placed some of his own customers domains and emails on my server, took the money from the customer and disappeared.
Now the customers are coming to me for support issues, I have told them they are not my responsibilty, but they claim their content is on my server so I am liable for it, but I am saying they have not directly paid my company. Who is correct, what action can I take?

We’ve been asked to offer a technical proposal for a new established TV station, and the IT manager of the station has a long list of requirements, we covered it all, only one issues lift as we never done it before:

They want about 20-60 GB server for hosting and they want to have a mirror server, incase the 1st server was down, so it would redirect the visitors to the mirror server, I’m thinking of getting them a dedicated or semi-dedicated server, but how do you do the mirror issue.
Some one said to get two dedicated servers, but:
1. How we make it that when one is down, it automatically directed to the other.
2. Should they be from two different companies and to different countries?
3. The web site will be with CMS and DB, how do you make sure that the mirror server have all the new data that was updated in the 1st server’s DB, do they have like shared DB or something, and how..

P.S. We use PHP/ MySql technology.
