Just a question

hey guys,
im thinking of starting an imagehosting site sort of like tinypic/photobucket/imageshack (kinda pointless i know

)
but i was thinking if i was using a script and loads of people were direct linking images would i be best with a VPS or Dedicated server instead of hosting it as a domain on a reseller i already have?
as it might damage your servers?

Anything that might be server intensive keep away from VPS and go straight to dedicated

Dannycg · January 2nd, 2008, 9:10 PM

ah really?
i was hoping vps as $55 suits me fine

.
i'll look into Dedicated plans now.

A small upload site should be fine on shared hosting, but if it starts to cause problems we will contact you and ask you to go dedicated.
