Who’s the winner? They both have deals right now, and I just need the most reliable option for clients. types of websites – complex portfolios with blogs, maybe e-commerce down the road plan needs ability to grow down the road not expecting heavy traffic… if so, I’ll just upgrade plans and charge the clients more SSL – I already have SSL with Porkbun domains. dashboard – I’ll need some kind of dashboard that clients can access without using all the complicated features (but I thought I could get that via WordPress.org, so do I even need a cpanel for them?) support for technical stuff backups for WordPress I’m looking at Hostinger’s Agency Plan and SiteGround’s GrowBig… so many options submitted by /u/Direct-Piglet-246 [link] [comments]

Hello r/Hosting Using an old account since you never know who might try to swoop in and steal clients. I have run a small web-hosting company for several years. I have about 100 accounts in a cPanel setup on a dedicated server that I own, and it is about 8 years old. Canada based. The accounts left are practically just passive income, the clients take care of themselves. Mostly WordPress sites. I have been hosting since 2009. A few larger accounts (15-20G) but most are sub 1GB. Admittedly, I have not spent much time on the company as I would have like to – life got in the way and my job pays the bills. The server: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v3 @ 2.40GHz w/ 32GB of RAM, few TB of spinning disk in a RAID setup. CentOS + cPanel (older version on extended support, version 110 ending in January 2026). Only ~200GB of actual usage with account material. So the decision is: Do I move to a VPS and procure a cPanel License, then migrate the accounts? What does this look like from an orchestration and migration perspective? I have a sysadmin background, so I am competent enough to support myself from a VPS perspective. I expect a newer OS with newer PHP/SQL/Etc will not be a smooth migration. Do I move to a Reseller Account, and then not worry about anything? Any major considerations there that I should think of? I had a peek around for Black Friday deals and I couldn’t find anything reputable on sale. Should I sell and just pack this up? Gross revenue is $12K CAD, I expect a lot of that would get eat up with costs of a new VPS and licensing. Who would buy something like this and how much could I get for it? Any advice is appreciated submitted by /u/ohnomyperiod [link] [comments]

Hello everyone, ​I’m starting a dedicated and VPS hosting company in India. We have completed registration, secured an ASN, and have a 1 Gbps leased line from Tata Teleservices with (256 usable IPs). ​I need expert advice on maximizing the potential of my initial hardware setup and ensuring profitability, as my fixed monthly operational cost is already ₹2,00,000 (excluding marketing/salaries). ​Current Infrastructure & Cost ​Total Fixed Monthly Cost: Approx. ₹2,00,000 INR ​Total Servers: 20 Dell/Inspur units. Inspur 15 Xeon Platinum (48-Core), 192GB DDR4, 5TB NVMe SSD Dell R720 5 Xeon E5 (24-Core), 96GB DDR3, 10TB SAS SSD Firewall Server 1 (R720 used) pfSense Primary Network Gateway Key Challenges & Questions ​pfSense Performance on 1 Gbps: I am currently running pfSense on one of the Dell R720 servers. Given the 1 Gbps line is for both ingress/egress, will this setup handle full wire speed reliably under load, especially with multiple connections and traffic shaping (if needed)? What specific hardware or configuration considerations should I prioritize to prevent the firewall from becoming the bottleneck? ​Virtualization Stack & Cost: We are budget-conscious. I plan to use KVM with Proxmox VE for its cost-effectiveness and performance on the NVMe storage. Are there any critical limitations or hidden costs I should be aware of compared to a commercial hypervisor like VMware for this specific scale (20 host servers)? ​Profitability and Oversubscription: ​Total Sellable RAM: approx 3360GB (Physical). ​To exceed the ₹2,00,000 monthly cost, what is a realistic and safe RAM oversubscription ratio (e.g., 1.5:1, 2:1) that balances profit with service quality, especially for a high-performance NVMe platform? ​What average monthly price per GB of sold RAM (based on competitors like Hostinger/GoDaddy in India) should I target to achieve profitability and a healthy margin? ​DDoS Strategy (Must-Have): pfSense is a firewall, not a DDoS mitigator. As a new hosting provider, we will be attacked. What are the best initial, scalable, and cost-effective DDoS mitigation strategies (Layer 3/4) in the Indian context? Should I prioritize getting an upstream BGP-based scrubbing service or is a solution like Cloudflare Magic Transit feasible for network protection? ​Thank you for any and all advice. I’m eager to learn and ensure we launch on a solid technical and financial foundation! submitted by /u/PrinceOrbit [link] [comments]

Hey everyone, I’m looking to get into the GPU hosting space — basically running GPUs that developers can rent for AI/training workloads through platforms like Vast.ai, RunPod, etc. I’m exploring setups outside in the UK and outside of the UK (most likely Turkey due to cheaper power) and deciding between GPUs like the RTX 5090, 4090, or A100 for the best ROI. If anyone here is already doing GPU hosting or has experience with decentralised compute, I’d really appreciate any advice on: • best GPUs for consistent demand • marketplace or private? • profit expectations (is it really worth it) • any mistakes to avoid Happy to learn from anyone already in this space. Thanks! gpuhosting #gpu submitted by /u/Federal-Bit-2122 [link] [comments]

Hola. Quisiera saber cual es la mejor opción económica para hosting y dominio. He estado haciendo cuentas y no me decido. Algunas te regalan el orimer año y te enjaretan a $300 al mes el alo siguiente. Mas dominio gratis el primer año y 500$ el siguiente año. Google cloud parece una buena opción, pero lo del crédito me asusta un poco. Si tienen expreicias que compartirme, o algun consejo, lo agradezco infinitamente. submitted by /u/used_to_vi [link] [comments]
