"difference??"

How much of a difference would be noticeable between 256mb DDR and 512mb SDR RAM cos my friend says his still gives better performance but i cant see any speed difference in games or windows at all

Cheers mate.

I'll probably let people on here know how it is going on either to warn them against doing it (if it doesn't work) or to brag about how rich I become (if it does work out!)

Good luck on your new business as well!

Lol, the service has only been running a few weeks and isn't officially launched yet though. I'd better get kieran to sort those though, doesn't look good!

Would you mind telling me??

Thanks.

I've just took the plunge and ordered 2GB of web space.

I won't advertise where it is on here as Special Reserve may be a little unhappy!!

Here's to my new business!

*raises a can of beer*

I think overing hosting along with Web Deisgn is a good step forward, good luck with that.

Had a look at them. Pretty funny seeing their "FIXME" comments on certain parts of the site.

I've been looking around and found a pretty good deal where I get 2GB of space to host up to 50 domains on. I've calculated that if I just sell 15 I will make a profit and if I can get 50 people to sign up then I will make a nice profit.

It's something I would like to do so I can combine hosting with web design and also custom software solutions for small businesses. Could be a tidy earner and means I don't have to rent office space and everything can be done from home!

I've got ADSL, and have been looking into setting up a server on my system, obviously it won't be as good as some of the provders with dedicated connections, T1 lines or whatever they are one nowadays, and a ton of servers, but its a start :o)

lol, why ask me?

But yes, I've been planning for a long time to host my own websites as soon as I get a permanent DSL connection, but until that happens I host everything on a friend's box which he has been stupid enought to give me root on. Either way I'd not consider hosting anything without a shell account and almost full control.

If you need hosting though, I can recommend www.digital-crocus.com, very cheap for what they provide.

But yes, self-hosting is certainly the way forward if you can handle it all.

Quick question for Turbonutter:

Have you ever looked into hosting your own websites with a reseller account?

I ask because I am thinking of doing it.
