Inquiring minds want to know.
We see your using the cheapest domain company with godaddy but the real question who is the web hosting company.
We all think a like and being price conscientious people we want to know.
Unless of course, your using the cheapest plan at the moment.
We're looking for something with 1 terabyte of bandwidth a month.
Forums can easily run 11MB/s of bandwidth for the popular ones. |

Just look at the text underneath "4WebHelp Forums"!
We're not currently using that much bandwidth, we've been allocated 10gb of bandwidth per month.
EDIT: You beat me to it Justin! |

1 terabyte? Who are you - Microsoft or something? I think you're WAY over-estimating your visitor count, whoever you are. |

Oh, and another thing:

Godaddy isn't the cheapest domain company. I don't know if it's the cheapest, but http://www.joker.com is cheaper than Godaddy, especially when registering dot info or dot biz domains. |

Sorry, but Joker doesn't seem cheaper for .com domains; I don't know about .info domains though. |

I registered a dot info domain for two years using joker.com, and it cost me 23 Euros (for a two-year registration) which are, by today's exchange rate according to yahoo.com, 20.01 US dollars. A dot info domain in Godaddy for two years is 29.90 US dollars. That's almost a 10 US dollars difference - those $10 saved could buy you hosting for your domain for an entire year (with cyberwings, for example), and with dot biz domains the difference is even bigger. |

You said they were cheaper than Godaddy, even though they are NOT cheaper for .coms. |

I'm sorry, that was a mistake. Perhaps I remembered the exchange rate wrong. I apologize. Joker.com is cheaper for dot info and dot biz domains, and godaddy.com is cheaper for more popular TLDs. |

1 TB/month?! 11MB/sec?! I don't think www.yahoo.com (not counting subdomains) can use it! |

You're the biggest bandwidth hog I have ever seen! Well Web Ring used to eat up 400K a sec... |
