small web hosting service
 

my friend has a server and for some time now he has had his own web hosting service, and he has quite a bit of paying customers, and now that he is making more money and has more customers he needs some help.

this is mostly to be kind and to help him not for an actual job but he will most likely pay a little after a while, so far the positions don't get much action but he is just starting out it is only his first year.

also if you would like to look at his site or get a host for a web site he is really reasonable, he will give you most likely what ever space you need and however much traffic you need for less then 10$ a month, give it a look www.elementalhosting.net

I couldn't say I would even considering buying hosting from someone that can't deal with a DOS attach in a day. Espically one that hosts their own nameservers, not just in the same location, not just on the same box, and not just on the same IP, but on a Road Runner cable connection.

I would only consider ever buying hosting from a place hosted in a real data center - with redundent power and network lines at the very least. I'll stick with my own servermatrix box. I can't say that he is actually doing the web hsoting on RoadRunner, because his nameservers don't work and they have been down long enough that I can't find a DNS server that has the IP cached.

Although it is RoadRunner commercial, which is intended to be used as a low end hosting connection. :rolleyes:

You also have to consider that you get what you pay for... it's really darn cheap with him. I'd do it if I had a need. If my server goes down once a month, I wouldn't care. And if I was a company, I'd buy my own massive connection and host myself.
