-BRAIDZ- Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I'm looking for a cheap but fast hosting provider that will be good to host a game without the troubles of file limits. Currently have a file limit of 250,000 and nearly used it all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coly010 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 No offence, but I've watched [MENTION=68406]-BRAIDZ-[/MENTION] struggle to learn PHP when a number of people have tried to help him, have told him to read articles and tutorials and he refused to take the advice. Learning to set up and run a server is a lot more complicated than php is, and by referring him to DigitalOcean he will need to learn how to use a vps. He's going to need to learn about connecting to one, most likely from windows, therefore he'll need to learn how to use putty or something similar, he's going to need to learn how to use Linux commands, if he wants to secure it, ssh keys. He's going to need to learn how to upload files without cpanel, unless he buys a license for that and installs it. He will most likely want phpmyadmin, again going to have to learn how to install it. Even the initial set up for mysql will be done through Linux commands most likely. [MENTION=68406]-BRAIDZ-[/MENTION] if your willing to learn how, then digitalocean will be one of the best hosting services you'll work with. If you don't want to learn then you'll struggle with it and are probably better using shared hosting or maybe even dedicated hosting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid it through paypal. And now it says my domain name is pending... Not sure whether this is anything to do with me using PayPal or not.. But does anyone have any ideas?

But does anyone have any ideas? all shared hosting will eventually not be enough for your game you will need to move to a vp server at some point as your game grows bigger. You could either find someone who is willing and has the free time to set it up for you or you can pay someone to set it up i don't think anyone would charge a lot to do this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all have different ways of learning but in my opinion maintaining a server is easier then php. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
