Title: [WTB] Web host for BTC
Post by: Global BTC on November 10, 2013, 10:42:22 AM
I'm looking for a web host that accepts BTC payments.

My requirements:
  • 3GB space
  • 40GB bandwidth (my estimation is 250 visitors per day, 5MB each)
  • PHP, MySQL and so on suitable for a Woocommerce Wordpress site.
  • Help with domain registration, SSL certificate.
  • Scalability. I might not need the 3/40GB right away - if I could start out cheap and pay more as the requirements grow, that would be great.

If you are a web host, please let me know what you can offer.
If you have experience of any web host accepting BTC payments, please share.

Their $5 plan looks OK. I would prefer a US host though, as most of my customers are American.

Ping doesn't really matter that much with web hosting.

How about I incorporate you into my plan (nothing hosted there is in use), and you pay me in BTC?

Hello there,
We accept bitcoin payments. The only thing is we don't do domain registering. That won't be done til sometime next year. You can have a look at our Essentials Plan on yseHosting: http://host.ysegb.co.uk/plans/1597-TheEssentialsPlan.htm, which you can easily upgrade to a bigger package when it suits you. You can pay monthly or quarterly. Your choice :-)

Let us know what you think.

I have a VPS over in Florida.

I can set up whatever plan you need and give you a cPanel.

I'm sending you a PM with the server's IP and a website on it so you can try it out the latency.

Price completely negotiable.

Pros: You'll always speak to me, a real person, as opposed to random guys in a company.
Cons: It is just me and not a whole company to give you support.

Namecheap is good for domains and OK for hosting.

Downtime is so tiny these days, it doesn't really matter anymore. I mean, having 2 hours of downtime in a year is like nothing, becouse we have 24*365=8760 hours in a year!

That's not enough hours for anything.

Well, I was surprised they don't have those deals like $0.01 or $0.99 for domain's first year, so I just bought from Godaddy.. :/

Very good point! https://komodosites.com is looking very good and cheap, but I can't seem to find much reviews or customer feedback online. Has anyone heard of them before?

VERY VERY BAD.
Go daddy has been known for having horrible customer relations. After you start paying the full fee , they will ignore you and have huge down times.

EDIT : Decided to add some citations ?
Scroll down for reviews about GoDaddy for being horrible ---> http://www.warriorforum.com/main-internet-marketing-discussion-forum/601259-whats-so-bad-about-godaddy.html (http://www.warriorforum.com/main-internet-marketing-discussion-forum/601259-whats-so-bad-about-godaddy.html)
Need less swearing and QQ by cheated users of GoDaddy ? This is a more proffessional one , but does not have any reviews ---->
http://www.authormedia.com/6-reasons-authors-should-avoid-godaddy/ (http://www.authormedia.com/6-reasons-authors-should-avoid-godaddy/)

EDIT2 : Also , apparently namecheap gives a discount if you switch from GoDaddy :P

Some scams tend to look very good. I'm not saying that this host is a scam or not, just be careful.

If you look up WHOIS info on KomodoSites.com, it says the domain was created in August of this year, probably why there are no reviews out there. They might still be good, they're just new.

I've used HostArmor.com before, they only accept BTC for shared hosting and website design though. Dedicated servers, domains, and SSL certificates have to be done with PayPal, I asked :) Also, they've been around since 2011.

Interesting. I take that a
Code:
df -h
will return infinity for available space then ? I would like two disks with infinite storage please, always good to have some actual turing machines.

I'm not sharing publicly where I'm hosting my site, even though the host is quite known. Only if OP wants to accept the deal.

Looks way too legit, the infinite disk space adds a nice touch to that.

EDIT: So https://www.dreamhost.com/web-hosting/ $8.95/month, http://www.darkskydesigns.com/index.php/hosting $4.99/month both with the exactly same text you pasted.

Cheers for the mention guys.(saw it in GWT)..

I run things at Media Fortress. We are 100% legit and happy to support BTC.

We have Australian and US Servers (softlayer). Happy to offer a 30% off first billing period to any bitcointalk memebers wanting US hosting and double the space on US servers. Just use btclovers as your promo code. Just shoot support a message post signing up so you can be set up on the US server. (or feel free to get in contact here)

Cheers
Stephen

If you need scalability, Cloud VPS (https://coinshost.com/en/cloud) is what you are looking for.
