    The only direct link to your site/offer is the Order link on VirtIO1... and that's down....

    And your speed test... is down...

    Should double check these things before posting an offer/promotion. Every other link works though.

    Seems the link you used in your promo doesn't exist on virt.io but rather https://secure.sysadmin.co.uk/billing/clientarea.php , the client area of "James Hadley" which may be confusing to some people wanting to purchase from Virt.IO , though the 100mb test doesn't seem to work from either servers.

  • I love your website!

  • @kbeezie I think @jhadley is hosting his websites over at EuroVPS at the moment.

    Feel free to ping my Virt.io box - 91.227.221.125

    Speedtest - http://91.227.221.125/100mb.test

    Ping from AZ ~130ms (not bd), from Hetzner 19ms
    100mb download to AZ ~ 2MB/sec, to Hetzner ~ 7MB/sec

    Not bad, though James should still probably correct the links and double check his own 100mb :P. My guess is he only redirected /billing/ but didn't create a rewrite rule to catch everything after the billing folder.

    Sorry, I'm not doing very well! Updates being made now..

  • It's a CDN, but the servers are only located in the UK?
    Do you have a node in NL? I need something for a new OpenCart store...

    The hosting itself is in the UK. There are CDN nodes all over the EU, USA and further afield as well. There are a few in NL.

  • So if I use your services, I will ping to a server located in NL?

    Ping static.openbill.co.uk and see where it goes :)

  • Nice, the CDN works automagically?
    How much would I need for a fashion opencart shop, 100 uniques daily and about 200 SKUs? I now this is a fucked up question... Why am I even asking this :D

    Could you make me a price for the 512 MB RAM with around 5-7GB SSD?

  • jhjh Member

    @ztec said: automagically

    Whatever that means :P But yes it does. It works with a CNAME and then the network directs to the correct A record.

    It would depend on traffic, but probably what you suggested yourself or even less if you ran an optimised environment. Opencart is quite efficient (substantially so compared to Magento).

    512MB RAM / 5GB disk for £6
    or 6GB disk for £7
    or 7GB disk for £8

  • @jhadley said: Whatever that means :P

    I saw cPanel using it in their scripts and liked the ''word'' :P

    Alright let's test your service :)

    OK, PM me which plan you'd like to go for and I'll create a package :)
