- Digichat is a bandwidth hog: Actually...it isn't. Digi-Net just tells you that so you'll think it's cheaper to host with them and give them more money in the long run. Having seen a chat run with 3 gig of space cause the web team liked to tinker (usually a minimum of 1.5 gig free, more if the logs were backed up) and 75 gig of bandwidth to account for the 4 chats which were installed (2 4.0 chats and 2 5.0 chats. A typical 100 user WoD chat will use around 10 gig per month) for $35 US per month for site, database and chat, this is a huge misconception and you'd save more money in the long run by stumping up the cash and finding a host yourself.
- Recommended host: Here's where I plug my hosting service since I found them through the above chat. The tech support guy is awesome, the service is excellent and the prices are reasonable - http://www.fissionhost.com. If it's not showing the usual site, just use the contact email and Kevin'll set you up :)
- Let's do some maths!
- 50 user hosting at $49.99 per month for 2 years + setup fee of $99 + 2 years of hosting for your site at $5/month= $1418.76
- 100 user license at $549 + hosting with enough bandwidth at $25 per month for 2 years = $1149
