[REQUEST]Hosting for very big SMF/TP forum with 11500 users + 16 GB traffic/day

[hartiberlin]

Hi,
I am running
overunity.com
with about 11500 members and
about 16 GB traffic per day.

As my current host
servage.net
unforunately has a limit on
MySQL queries per hour set to
100.000 queries
my forum goes sometimes offline ,
especially when the GoogleBot crawler
is using up all the queries during heavy crawling.

What would it cost per month to get hosting without a queries limit  ?

Can somebody recommend a good hosting company, who
would support this ?
I am willing to do advertisement as an affiliate for the company that can host
my forum, so the company would benefit from it also to get new customers.

Many thanks.

Regards, Stefan.

I would send Tick a PM and ask if they can handle an account for you on the TPH (  www.TinyPortalHosting.com )

Lesmond or Tick, shoot them a PM

I left a message in their Offline Live support block.

Any other offers from other companies ?

I really need a good SMF/TP hosting .
Many thanks.

Your best bet is none other than www.TinyPortalHosting.com :up:

I agree with all the above tinyportalhosting is the greatest.

I could host that on my existing plan along with the 5 other web sites with databases that I currently run.
I'm currently using this much of my space:

Disk Usage:

10% of 325.1 GB 

+2 GB / week

Bandwidth Usage:

0% of 6472 GB   

+40 GB / week

For this I get unlimited databases, domains, sub-domains , email accounts, numerous 1 click installs,
MYSQL 5.2, unlimited ftp accounts, (separate from a domain ftp account), free streaming, files forever, and who knows what else I'm forgetting. This is on a shared server for $9.95 a month. For Private Server with control over your CPU speed and memory usage, with all the same goodies, you'll pay around $40.00 a month, depending on where you set you CPU and memory settings. If you need a secured plan, there are options to add some free security and a unique IP will add $47.40 per year.
Uptime for shared servers is about 99.9%.
Support is excellent, albeit not instantaneous. When I started building and hosting sites, I knew absolutely nothing about how this stuff works. I asked the stupidest, most noob questions on a support ticket, and they helped with-out pause. Support time is determined by urgency.
If you sign up now, you get an even better deal:
    *  500 GB Disk Storage
    * 5 TB Monthly Bandwidth
    * 97-Day Money-Back Guarantee
    * Plus many more features!
    * Sign up now for $5.95/mo*
Better than what I have currently. If you use me as reference, we both get a bonus.
I know nothing about TP Hosting and am sure it is great. I mean no disrespect to TP and the great members and staff here.
I just wanted to offer an alternative.
I won't post the host name unless I get the okee dokee from staff.
If you are interested or have any questions, you can either send me a PM or find me by other means found in my profile.
You can also of course post any questions here and I'll answer what I know.
