Guest Posted October 20, 2003 Report Share Posted October 20, 2003 I'm not joking. I have few servers leased with BurtonHosting with total satisfaction. Their connection is very fast and reliable. The servers come with CPANEL/WHM, it's really an excellent deal. As per the 2000 GB this basically means no bandwidth limit, that's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted October 21, 2003 Report Share Posted October 21, 2003 Hi, Sorry, but I remain very sceptical. What are you running on those servers? And how much bandwidth are you pulling? Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 21, 2003 Report Share Posted October 21, 2003 I use Thai web host (Owned by an Aussie). No problems as yet (also helps that the owner is based locally so I can give him shit if any of my sites go down). http://www.thaiwebhost.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 I've also been looking at various hosting options for my long-planned website. Thanks for the useful links and tips already mentioned but has anyone got any feedback about Thai Provider? http://www.thaiprovider.net They seem ridiculously cheap (eg. B500/month !! for 125 MB disk space, 2500MB/month data transfer, etc). Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elef Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Hi ShokDee, you mention 2500MB/month data transfer=2,5 GB, others 50-2000 GB!? elef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 Hi, Hosters pay bandwidth is on the difference between incoming and outgoing. In Thailand almost all of the traffic is incoming, so there is therefore a huge amount of 'excess' bandwidth going out available. That makes bandwidth costs here very low. Of course, there may be reasons why one would not want to host ones site in Thailand. I can think of a few Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 seem ridiculously cheap (eg. B500/month !! for 125 MB disk space, 2500MB/month data transfer, etc This plan is way overpriced unless that "etc" part is really sensational. Web hosting is normally defined in the number of GIGABYTES per month, not megabytes and bandwidth is usually the most important cost factor. You can find better deals easily like 8GB bandwidth (8000MB), 400MB disk space for $2.95US/month. Just scan this link for deals: Web Hosting Offers Message Board The only time having a thai web host would make sense is if your target community is in Thailand such as a mirror site. My experience is the international link is too bottlenecked and goes down too much for it to be useful for serving other countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 No, after the "etc" bit is nothing sensational ! Many thanks to you all for the advice and feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
