Latest Hosting News on Reddit

Hello. I have a spare Namecheap Stellar hosting account (valid until November 2026) that I’m not using, and I’d like to donate it to 3 people who need hosting for learning, testing, or small non-commercial projects. Each person will get their own separate FTP access, with 6GB Cloud SSD, support for PHP and Node.js, free email accounts, and the ability to host 1 domain. You need to buy one if you don’t have already. If you’re interested, DM me with a brief explanation of how you plan to use it. submitted by /u/ahmadhuaz [link] [comments]

Hi everyone, I’m planning to build and host an LMS on Moodle for around 10,000 students. I’m based in Pakistan, and most of my users will also be in Pakistan, so latency and bandwidth matter a lot. I’m considering Hetzner and OVH, but I’m confused about a few things and hoping someone here can clarify: Hetzner concerns: Singapore location → only 0.5 TB traffic included. I have no idea if 0.5 TB/month is enough for 10k Moodle users. (I’m guessing NOT, but maybe someone here can share real usage numbers?) Germany location → far from Pakistan. I’ve read that if you use Cloudflare on a German server, Cloudflare might route the traffic through the US. OVH concerns: OVH shows Singapore as “greyed out” on the VPS selection page. Does that mean they no longer offer SG for VPS? If so, that’s a huge problem for me because their EU locations will also be far. What I need help with: Is 0.5 TB/month enough for a Moodle platform with 10k active or semi-active students? For Pakistan-based users, is Hetzner Germany + Cloudflare acceptable in terms of latency? Are there better VPS providers with Asian locations (Singapore/Mumbai/Dubai) that you’d recommend for Moodle hosting? Anyone hosting Moodle at this scale—how much bandwidth do you actually consume per month? submitted by /u/AspiringTranquility [link] [comments]

I’m an old guy with a decent sized small business (unrelated to website building or tech – we sell physical products) and a variety of websites I’ve built over the years – some related to my company and some as side ventures. I either now have hosting or have had hosting in the past with Hostinger, Weebly, Wix, Ecwid and a few others. I started with Microsoft Front Page (you young ‘uns might need to look that up) and have dabbled with WordPress but never got proficient with it and probably don’t want to learn it. I tend to find platforms that offer a built-in “site builder” of some sort and use that, and I want to continue that practice. Right now, I’m unhappy with Hostinger because of renewal pricing at $10.99 or so a month and want to move 2 of my sites away from them. If I find a good place to land, I’ll eventually move all my sites over time. I have a couple of ecommerce sites so I need that capability but none of them are high-volume. I have most of my domains registered thru Porkbun and am in the process of moving the rest from Godaddy, so eventually all will be with PB. PB recently rolled out a website host/building package called Articulation with a basic plan of $60/year for one site. I like PB but I’ve seen other plans out there in that price range that allow more than one site on the plan. Namecheap has shared hosting for 3 sites for $4.88/month after renewal. I’ve been reading some of the posts on this sub and see lots of jargon I have no idea about: NVMe storage. Container sites. DDoS protection. IPv6. I don’t know what any of that stuff means and will stay with a simple site builder and host. You kids get off my lawn!!! ☺ Any feedback on Namecheap or other possibilities would be appreciated. submitted by /u/bcad4me [link] [comments]
