I would personally never buy a dedicated server (or shared hosting on a server) in New Zealand because local prices are quite simply a joke. If you want a dedicated server The Planet (http://www.theplanet.com/) is very popular. :) colocation could also be a good option once you learn how to run a server. Im looking at it at the mo, but its way out of my budget (no money, still at college etc...)By the time you pay the datacenter fees and buy the server it would be more costly than hiring a dedicated server in most cases. |

| 413240 | 2005-12-20 06:55:00 | Very true, but we are talking about someone who needs a dedicated server here. I don't know of many sites that need a dedicated server but only go through 150GB of bandwidth. As I said in my post above, unless you have high CPU needs or something like that, shared hosting should cover most people's requirements up to about 250GB of bandwidth, when it would be a good idea to start considering other options. :2cents: | maccrazy (6741) | ||
