Solve : hosting options for video clip website?

Answer»

Hi there,

I have an idea for a website that would host user uploaded videos. Could anyone give me an idea about how much it would cost to host a website that would HOLD say 300, 1 minute video clips?

Thank you in advance of any replies received!

Hi guys,

I have recently paid a web designer to MAKE me a website. It is kind of a youtube-with-a-twist kind of website, where people submit their own videos.

....

He is asking for around £170 ($260) per month. Is this REASONABLE? Is this spec roughly what I would need? I have no idea how many video / how much traffic - it DEPENDS on how many users and how successful the site. I would be happy if we got like 200 videos on there and 1000 people looking in one day for example - I wouldn't expect any more than that for the first few months at least.

I take it that didn't work out?

Not so much an idea, more like 're-inventing the wheel'........ Quote from: kop442000 on March 13, 2012, 06:32:24 AM

You're asking the wrong question.  It's not so much the capacity of the website that determines price, as the amount of bandwidth you'll require and the speed of the service. Quote from: reddevilggg on March 13, 2012, 07:55:02 AM

I'm not exactly going to give the whole idea out here genius.
