What type of sale would you be interested in?

I am getting ready to post an offer soon for Fliphost and I decided to ask you guys what you would be interested in most. Would you prefer more storage, more CPU, more bandwidth or more RAM? And no, you can't pick them all :P . This input will help to shape the offer I post in the next couple of days.

Thanks in advance,
-Alex

    If you are making it a discount, wouldn't it make more sense to provide more of whatever you have the most of? If most are taking ram, sell drive, or CPU, or whatever you have extra of.

    @miTgib Just trying to get a feel for what is wanted most.

    Personally I was usually looking for bw, but I dont think I can find more than what I have now.

    @Maounique What is your bandwidth requirement? ( we have a promo on its way, so might be able to adjust).

    Plan to continue NinjaHawk after summer you know :)

    @Fliphost Sorry mate :D. I will hold my self. It is just, I have a ton of servers that always have at least 5TB bandwidth left each month (Not the ones sold but the ones I keep handy for upgrades and staffs. So thought might be able to help).

    @Taz_NinjaHawk Nah it's alright I'm just messing with you :P

    Usually, I could run Munin Server with 128MB, 10GB Disk, 100GB BW.
    But maybe I would like more RAM. :D

  • CloudxtnyHostCloudxtnyHost Member, Host Rep

    I'm in the same boat fliphost.

    I've been doing really good cheap VPS and they've been popular, I'm wondering if i should do a 256mb or 512mb special.

  • JacobJacob Member

    I'm in the same dilema, But advertising isn't a biggie at the momment.

  • NickMNickM Member

    How about offering a decent base package (for example, 128MB RAM, 10GB disk, 100GB of transfer), then as a promo, one of those can be upgraded for free?

  • ErawanArifNugrohoErawanArifNugroho Member

    or :
    DOUBLERAM for double ram
    DOUBLEDISK for double disk space
    DOUBLEBW for double bandwidth

    VPS Wishlist (if you have these specs, please contact me and I will sign up immediately):

    1) Reliable (99.9% uptime is fine) AND responsive VPS (no overselling) AND responsive Support ... obviously based on performance benchmarks AND customer feedback found online

    2) A VPS (specs below) in Dallas, TX; or Los Angeles, CT; or New York, NY, or UK; or Germany

    • "lowend": < $5 USD/mo, 512MB RAM, at least 20GB disk, 1TB bandwidth, 2 cores, 1 ipv4 (+ipv6 would be nice but not a deal breaker)
    • "middle": < $7 USD/mo, 2GB RAM, at least 50GB disk, at least 1TB bandwidth, 2 cores, 1 ipv4 (+ipv6 would be nice but not a deal breaker)
    • "highend": < $11 USD/mo, at least 2GB RAM (3GB preferred), at least 100GB disk, at least 2TB bandwidth, 4 cores, 2 ipv4 (+ipv6 would be nice but not a deal breaker),

    3) payable monthly via Paypal (Paypal subscription not necessary); no longterm pre-pay

    4) iptables available in the container

    5) Email allowed in ToS (no shady BS trying to charge extra for anything related to email)

    6) Adult content allowed in ToS

    7) having Debian 5 (Lenny) template still available would be nice (please no comments about it being EOL; irrelevant for my purposes)

    You are going to host a pornsite? :P

    Not sure if you are joking or serious, however, VZ5 from prometeus is 4 Eur is payed quarterly, has 3 tb traffic, 2 cores, mail allowed, but if you get blacklisted you are out, also porn allowed as long as it is legal, iptables available, tun/tap/ppp also, payable by paypal, there is only one problem, it is in Italy :)
    Oh, and also has IPv6 if only 2 IPs are ok for you.
    So, if you put that as a mission impossible, it is not quite so, apart from location, I think it qualifies :P
    M
    P.S. I also put a review of exactly that plan after 5 months of usage in WHT and many ppl commented on the thread 100% positively. I got it as a special deal so I only pay 3.3 a month tho, including VAT.
    P.P.S I dug up my review for you: http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=1181751
