Adult Tube Sites and Servers

Tubie28 · 08-15-2008

Hi everyone,

I’m just about to venture into the world of adult tube sites, I was meant to do this at the beginning of the year but got delayed. Anyway, I suppose it’s a bit naive to think I can just step straight into the game without any real experience but it’s my intention to more or less copy other tube sites, maybe even steal their shit. (if that’s allowed of course)

My question has to do with servers. I don’t really know anything about them and someone told me I would need a dedicated server to run a site like YouPorn, RedTube, YouLeak, PornHub, Tube8 etc. I looked to see what the main sites use to host the sites – RedTube uses Choopa, prices are incredible, over $2000 per month for a good spec. Same goes for YouPorn, they are with Softlayer and cost as much. YouLeak and Tube8 are even more strange because the server is their own name. How much must this cost!!!

I’ve spent a lot of money up to now getting a script written and I might not even be able to use it because of the ludicrous server costs! Am I jumping the gun here? Is there another option regarding servers or are the only people who can start these sites millionaires?

Any input regarding this will be fantastic. Sorry for the simplicity of this question

Cheers

T
