Title: my boomnizzle.com hosting is about to expire
Post by: S-U-P-E-R on June 10, 2006, 06:13:52 AM
unless I pay 120 bux (that covers a year). I'm thinking it's worth it, though.

I could just keep the domain if anybody knows a cheaper hosting alternative :3

I pay the same for mine... 10 bucks a month, and it's the cheapest I could find way back when.  :-/

How much bandwidth does boomnizzle use a month?

doteasy.com is a cheap hosting place, BUT it has pretty severe bandwidth limits, I think if the site is using more than uh, 10GB per month or something like that, you have to pay.  And then it's probably just as expensive as most other alternatives.

I'd donate some cash, but have none to spare right now.  Instead, I donate some spirtual support to you.

Because this is in the Funhouse I can't tell if this is serious or not, but if it is, then there are much better options out there than $120 a year, unless you expect to run the gambit in terms of bandwidth usage.

The service I currently use would be far cheaper than that for example:

http://www.powweb.com (although you have to stomach the frightening lady on the front at the moment... everything has its price).

If you are interested in seeing how the service works, you can check out my site as it's running on it:

http://www.tohokingdom.com

However, even this could be too expensive depending on what your bandwidth and space needs are, as it's hard to find a "better deal" without getting a ball park on it.

That's nothing in terms of paid hosting, especially considering that the service above offers 400 times that for less than $100. You should really shop around, as finding cheap hosting for that type of bandwidth needs should not be a problem.

Okey dokey, I paid to keep the domain (10 bux for a year) but I'll get my hosting elsewhere. That is to say, boomnizzle (and its hosted avatars/banners/etc) will be going down sometime this week so save the nice things on it that you like  :3
Title: RE: my boomnizzle.com hosting is about to expire
Post by: UncleBob on June 13, 2006, 02:42:29 PM
Should someone save all the banners, just the ones we like, or will you take care of the transfer of those?

I already have all the banners and stuff, and the like, five drawing board pictures. You guys need to save any stuff from /pgc that you want.

AFAIK, that post was real, and was actually the entire front page of boomnizzle for like the first month it was up. :3

The asian chick is the ultra hot and now sadly deceased actress from original power rangers. I got an oldschool Power Rangers kid's book at the dollar store.

Hey, just because I'm married, it doesn't mean that I can't want to loose my virginity as well.

Yeah, I was wondering if you knew she was dead (always wear your seatbelts, kids!)... it was just a really odd picture to find in there...

The fact that you even had to clear it up indicates that you're lying.

You do realize your hosting company is lying about how much bandwidth/storage you can use, right?

(Sorry to bump this. I was just looking at this thread because I'm in the market for webhosting, and I remembered some web hosting companies were recommended here, and I wanted to see if they looked any better than the company I'm considering.)
