Well, our host demands a payment of $490 for the dedicated server of http://www.Findtutorials.com which has been serving people with thousands of tutorials for a few years now, - don't offer your own servers because it will take another month only to make the move.. so, I know it's a bit pathetic but unless we'll get those $490 to pay for hosting and I mean like, real soon, we'll have to shut down the site


Here is what it looked like:

So anyone has any ideas? or maybe can someone donate $200 or more?

This site is educational and didn't meant to get me any profit to begin with, and it helped many people, so I am hoping for a contribution



thanks.

That sucks! Aren't you making enough from advertising?
FindSP.com
this is a non profit site, I'm not suppose to make any money from advertising, but it has 300,000 uniques per month... and I have to pay for hosting...

Lonny,

How about Findsp sponsoring the site? It would be great pr!
FindSP.com
We already do..

So it's all fixed then! No problems.

The other thing to try is to approach other hosts.

How is it solving the problem? the host still wants $490 per month, and I'm 20 days late in the payment and I have 2 days or else

Your reply to sponsorship.

But do you really need a dedicated server at a cost of $490 per month for the site? Surely you could go with a cheaper option. WIth 2 days to go you could easily move it off.

Server sharing

The problem is that it is on Windows 2000 and SQL 2000


not PHP or whatever

OK, the best suggestion I have is to barter for a server with a host. You could offset it with ads on Findsp.
