I just started few websites generating good traffic. I wana start a file hosting service where members of the sites will upload: full movies, music videos and mp3 files and maybe some images etc.
The big question is how to provide the downloaders the optimal speed to download. please give some feedback regarding other issues as well. Looking forward to your replies and thanks in advance! -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

As a newbie, you should start off with a single server setup like a Linux system. Also, your site is geared towards media files you might want to look at a dedicated 100mbps connection. As this comes online you can then add additional servers to load balance the site or offload the database to a dedicated server. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members.
