Re: Hey Ride2believe!
Hello Southern Belle,
$235 are totall amount of money donated since March this year when we started collecting donations, and $99 have already been spent for yearly hosting bill, payed in the end of May.
As that counter is only able to show total amount of money collected, we decided to remove that counter, as it was showing much more then what we actually have now.
Since encountering problems with forums(last 10 days), we have collected exactly $182. (Amazon have taken 15% - 20%) (12 donations so far, one was $50, and several donations were $25 and $20)
Big thank to you and big thank to all those of you who donated money.
We still don't know how much it will cost us (if hosting company wants to make a deal), but the cheapest web hosting companies (other companies) are usually charging between $150 and $200 per month for a web site that has as much traffic and as many databases and ASP scripts as curezone.
We are talking about 50 or 60 GB traffic, and a lot of ASP scripts (Windows 2000 server)
We have one database for each forum (96 forums so far), 20 databases for articles and 10 databases for other parts of web site.
We are still waiting for reply from ReadyHosting.com, and before we get their reply we don't know anythig.
But, so far we collected $182 from donations made in the last 2 weeks, and I think $100 would be absolute max what we would pay per month.
Many people who donated, donated for the whole year, so those $182 are not suppose to be spent in the first one month.
Thank you!
Curezone Team
