i know you guys like to keep some of your server hosts private but maybe you can help me even just a little for decide on where to order my dedi's. i have burst.net in mind. are they alright? what do you think of them?
That depends on what you're asking about. 1. Level of Service and Support? 2. Quality of Their IP Space? 3. Overall Value and Price? 4. Tolerance of Complaints? When you are evaluating any web host as a mailer, there are many factors that go into that answer depending on what you need/want.
They are not THAT bad.. I always make money with the servers I order from them. Certainly not a first tier choice though. More like the kinda place you order from when your scaling decision tree looks like this: Should I order a ser... YES. Always Yes.
Everybody is going to make money on IPs, the question is whether you want to make $50 per Ip or $500 per ip...
Burst.net + They have been solid service/support wise + Server stays live almost 100% of the time(never had any down time with them at all) + They work with you on complaint issues(forward them to me in most cases) + Cost is on the lower side which is good/don't hassle you too badly on IP justifications - Their IP's are not that great, far from virgin, but OK.Had some minor listings on them to start. This is a good server company, solid machines, but middle of the road IP wise as far as condition/rep/and earning potential.
Ya just have to choose your locations wisely there older locations pretty much all the IP's are yahoo blocked. But you can get onto some pretty clean IP's at there newer ones
