    Default Cheap Virual Web Hosting

    Virtual reseller hosting offers the appearance of a company's own server but the technical aspects of space sharing. Through virtual hosting, a developer can secure space on a server and have shared access to the server's features. Hosting companies provide this service by maintaining a large server and on that large server they maintain a number of virtual web hosts. The machine examines which "name" it is being called by and then responds appropriately. Thus, visitors to the site enter through the domain name of the developer and therefore cannot recognize that another company's server in fact, hosts the site.

    Simply stated by Crowder and Crowder (2000), virtual servers are "nothing more than directories on a hard drive. The webmaster can make each one of the directories seem as though it were a fully functional web server". With a virtual web host, you will have your own identity, but you will not be required to maintain the equipment.

    Virtual hosting packages are the most common on the Internet and offer a professional and well-established look for personal and small business web sites. Financially, the average virtual hosting account runs between $15 and $30 per month. Ample space and bandwidth for small businesses, multiple email accounts, cgi-bin access, and a T3 connection are common account features. Additional fees are often required for more advanced features including database software or SSL (secure server) functionality.

    well i dont think so it is worth to host with pandela with such a small sql db,

    An active website or forum generates more data and with few days you would exhaust your 2mb

    Default Yes : pandela databse is small

    Yes. but there are no free hosts who offer all these ( php, mysql , domain hosting and subdomain hosting)

    You can save a lot of space by disabling the search feature.

    Installing the forum + 50 registered members + easy mod + 110 posts = 300 kb of mysql database.

    Where did you get this information kiran?

    is that of yours forums or is it from reliable source?

    if it so, then even 2mb seems big with the pruning option

    and how do you disable the search feature in a forum?

    and how that would save space?

    Default Forum - sve datbase space

    i got the above info frommy forum itself

    i disbld the search feature using a mod and deleted the search results tble from my sql which take up mostof the spce

    i believe that every time you post a message the forum searches for some unique new words which it will add as a value in mysql table. Then when your search using the serch feature , it just needs to searhc through one table and gets you the results.
    I think this was done because it takes a long time to serch through the entire database for a query.

    So longer posts implies bigger table. deleting this table wont affect nything other thn serch. i f your use the mod to disble search then everything else will work fine. The search feature will return no results for any query.

    if yu want to have search at any cost ..you cud use third party searches like google search installed in your forum which may give you results of pages already crawled.

    i'll give you the mod name and the search table nme in my next post
