Well i dont know if this will get alot of attention.. but i'll post it in anyway
We are setting up a site which will requires alot of space and bandwidth
We will be hosting video tutorials and people will be downloading them
With each tutorails about 500MB-800MB maybe bigger,
We will start off with about 20-25 of these and it will grow.. there are alot of people out there looking for these so we expect alot of interest and member to join the site. So we will place your banner on the site and also a text link.
With the files been this size the bandwidth to download them will be high as well.
So if there is any company's out there looking to support use please letme know.

Can you e-mail me (admin[at]synced.org) or reply to this post with what your projected daily statistics will be in terms of traffic (hits and bandwidth). What these tutorials are and why are they so large? Are these videos of building homes from start to completion? I have seen 3 hour tutorials in 640x480 even 600 by 800 resolutions in less size then you are stating. So im curious! Thanks for your help. Synced.org Hosting

Hey,
We dont have stats at the moment.
They will be video tutorials on how to design in 3D and photoshop. Using 3D products like 3Dsmax/Maya/Zbrush etc. the screen size will be bigger then what you said we would be using 1024 x 768 and up.. and they need to be good quaility. Plus they will have audio. we are still working on the compression rate and trying to get them smaller. But at the moment we are getting 1 hour for about 75MB. each tutorial could last anywhere from 2 hour to 10 hours. depending on what we are doing.
Just to add they are not video's using a camcorder. We are using a screen recording software. And all the movies will be in AVI format so both Windows and Mac users can use them.
This project has not started yet so i dont have any stats.

What are your plans for who can download these files? Contact me at admin[at]synced.org or ephishere on aim to discuss this further. Id be interested but not if anyone can come on and download your tutorials. That would equate to terrabytes of transfer for, what seems to me, tutorials that most likely exist in jpg/text formations. Let me know.

For future hosts clarification:
This user does not wish to put their ads, if they have to have ads from the hosting company, above their own ads. They want the ads at the bottom of the forum driven site.

From what I understand, this user is looking for about 15-20GB of space to start with that is mostly video content in nature (storage-wise). You really should just fork out $8/month and go for a company like Servage.net that runs cluster server configurations and this much space as well.

Or buy from jaguarpc.com, which offers something like 6gb of space and 180gb of transfer.
