Traffic is up for the second month in a row. Just like last month I have had to purchase extra bandwidth. If this continues I'm going to have to upgrade our hosting package. So if would like to help contribute, via Paypal, to our hosting costs use the following link, http://www.allducks.com/pgs/donate.htm , and click on the "Donate" button.
Thanks,

I would have to look into how a server move would effect the site, as far as saving all the post and member accounts. I'll let you know, Thanks.

Being completely technologically clueless, just how much does bandwith and hosting cost?

Our current hosting package is $19.99 an month. That includes 30GB worth of bandwidth. We are currently at 34.23GB for the month. Extra bandwidth is $10 for every 5GB. I the bandwidth is up again next month I'm going to upgrade the $29.99 hosting package. That package includes 50GB of bandwidth.

Thanks for the info. It helps to know how much this is costing you. It seems like it will make sense to go to the next package. The downside of being popular, I guess!

I run a busy forum as well for photography (high bandwidth) and use dreamhost. I'd be happy to kick in some dough, but check out their level 3 (code monster) plan. Since I've been with them for 2 years, the disk space I get and bandwidth go up, all for free. Right now I get 430 GB of drive space and 32GB of traffic a week (with a big B). I use about 1% of it!! A friend of mine has been using their hosting for 6 years and he also swears by them.
If you do sign up, make sure and put 'finagler' in the referral box!
edit: ouch, just read you use almost 35GB now; how is that even possible for a forum unless you're hosting huge videos or something?
Double ninja stealth edit: I suck at math, I get 35GB a week, you're talking a month right?

Yeah, I think he pays it once a month.
And if you look in the graphics section, you can definitely see that we hold huge videos and graphics.

It is per month. Last month we were at about 36GB. I'm know there are other hosting plans out there but I like hosting with the people that created the board software. We've got burned before with another hosting company and lost all the members and posts. Invision is very good at taking care of things.

Cool man, I threw $20 in the tip jar. Keep up the good work, I know how hard it is.
