Cheap Hosting

Hey guys, due to some problems with server loads with the guy I'm sharing a server with right now I'm opting to get a dedicated server of my own within a week or two. To help cover some costs I'm only going to take on 5-10 people on this server (not looking to load the server down one bit at all). I'm going to offer some cheap hosting that may bring in some lost costs for this new server. So heres the deal:

$10/mth
: Disk Space - 1000MB
: Bandwidth - 45GB/mth
: Subdomains - Unlimited
: POP3 Email - Unlimited
: Mailing List - Unlimited
: Mysql Databases -Unlimited
: Domain Parking - Unlimited
: Cpanel 8 included

Server specs:
Pentium 4 2.4ghz
1GB ECC DDRAM
120GB EIDE 7200RPM
Redhat Linux 9.0
Connectivity: 100Mbps (AboveNet)

PHP/Perl will be available. I don't know exactly what other bells and whistles I'll stick on it as it's still in the planning. I may allow shell access as well with a justafyable reason. Of course, no warez/porn/hacking or other related or illegal content would be allowed. This is to test the waters and see if any would be interested in such a plan.

I'm interested. I would like to settup a personel web site some time in the first
quarter of 04.
This will be my first time in doing a domain name although I have done
one other web site a couple years ago.

Yeah I can help you getting started if you have problems. What I'll probably do is have some sort of "discount code" for those from the Free-DC community. That way you can just enter it in and get the discounted rate without any sort of hassle. Just keep in mind that you will need to purchase a domain as well, which I can get for $9.95/yr (that's at cost for me as a reseller). If you look around though you can find other places that can do it for like $7.99 I think. I don't have $6000+ to put down for bulk domain registration credits to get the $6.99 domain reselling accounts.

I've been contacted via PM a couple of times by people asking upon the availability of this. Just to let everyone know, I do have a few slots left on this server. Free-DC members and other visitors (from other teams) are welcome.

Magnav0x,

Don't forget to save me space on that server,
I can go ahead and pay for a year if it helps.
Tell me where to go and I will sign up this weekend.

I have been looking at register.com for the domain.
Do you see a reason not to use them?

MrTRS, your slot is still reserved. I'll hold it until you are ready. I don't see any problem with registering through Register.com. I'm not familiar with their prices, but they are a rather large registrar. Minus your reserved slot, I have 3 available on this server and any others interested could sign up with my other hosting plans on the site, but they will be put on normal servers (same specs, just more accounts). When you (MrTRS) are ready, or for those that are interested, you can sign up here:

*** Warning, if you use the 2checkout payment gateway (requires no account, like paypal) and require that I register the domain for you, you will not be charged the domain cost ($9.99) upon registration. You will be billed seperately for the domain. If you use Paypal you may use the promotion code: "freedc" without the quotations to recieve the $2.96 domain discount. Upon signing up, you will see the domain cost as $12.95, but you will not be charged $12.95 for domain registrations.***

If you have any questions about any of it at all you may contact me at magnav0x@ezracing.net or webmaster@hostingyourdot.com

Thanks for holding me a slot.
I just signed up for a year and had you register my domain.
I already got all the emails about the account.

Thanks
Ray
