As mentioned above, you really have to sit down and look at the price of servers, even the cheap ones, then the price you want to pay. It isn't a sustainable business model without some sort of overselling / very tight-shipped operations going on.poor king said:well that was the best offer if you can offer better thats really will be better![]()

This is true, they won't just be plucking numbers out of the air, crossign their fingers and praying it will work. They'll be able to grow your account, as your site grows by the upgrade process. And by doing this, if your site becomes resource intensive, with expansion your host will be able to move you from shared > reseller > semi-dedicated > vps > dedicated without great hindrance.UrbanHostOnline said:Most hosts will offer to upgrade your account for a fee if they notice how much more space/bandwidth you really need.

A golden rule of Hosting though, if it looks too good to be true, it often is. You may find a great host who offers you 100s gb of bandwidth, but due to their overselling policy, they count upon you only using x amount of those resources. If you actually started approaching the full resource limitations imposed upon you, they'd more than likely get some clause hidden deep within their ToS to kick you off.poor king said:when i upgrade to bigger plan it will not be sutible for me specially in price![]()
They're not that hidden, and even if they are it's the customer's reponsability to read the TOS in its entirety.If you actually started approaching the full resource limitations imposed upon you, they'd more than likely get some clause hidden deep within their ToS to kick you off.
10.2 - To avoid unfair resource distribution at no time shall Customer use more than 15 simultanious processes by and with any of Customer's applications and not upload any file larger than 10 megabyte. All images in a Customer's hosting account must be linked to from pages within the Customer's hosting account. It is a violation of this agreement if Customer uses this account as merely an image, sound or file library. Binary files such as images, video and sound (i.e MP3, WAV, RA, GIF, JPG but not limited to those file extensions) may only account for a maximum of 50% of Customer's total bandwidth usage before customer must upgrade to a higher performance solution.
