What is your server environment?
Every server at Slua Hosting, has different specifications. Whenever a server reaches what we feel to be the limit, another server is built. SluaHosting is constantly upgrading the server hardware on our network. If more drive space, memory, or faster processors are needed, they are added in at that time. Our servers are minimum Intel Pentium III 866Mhz with high-speed SCSI or IDE drives. The operating system is Red Hat Linux running Apache Web Server. This is a fairly typical web server setup.

Can I get unlimited bandwidth?
No. We do not offer packages with unlimited bandwidth, primarily because there is no such thing. Any one that promises that are not telling the truth. Somewhere in their terms and conditions are probably some words referring to "excessive use of resources", and in effect, these place some arbitrary limit on your bandwidth. We set limits to both protect you and to provide you with a reliable service.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


How much bandwidth do I need?
Bandwidth is dependant on how much traffic your site will generate. For example, if you have 100 visitors per day, each visitor views 10 pages of your web site, and each page is 100K, then your bandwidth is approximately 3GB per month.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -


How much space do I need?
It is dependant on what the main purpose of your web site. For a normal static html site, 20MB is more than enough, usually one normal static page only takes 60-85KB with images. That means 20MB can hold more than 200 pages including images.
If you are running database or CGI program, then you might need more space.
