Hello everyone.
I'm interested in sponsored hosting. We're about to launch a large website, aimed at the RC industry, meaning radio controlled Helicopters, Aircraft, Boats, and Cars. The website will be a tool for people to publish their own videos of flying, videos from RC events, competitions, meetings and so on, this is quite a large hobby throughout the world, and the number of visitors is estimated to be around 5-20k unique per day eventually, more hopefully.
We will utilize BitTorrent technology to distribute the videos that users submit, ONLY RC videos will be accepted. There won't be any bandwidth usage on your end for the videos, only for page viewing. The design of the site will be simple, something like:
www.gamerscinema.org, which includes room for a banner from your hosting company, or any of your choice.
If possible it would be nice if we could host a "few" videos directly available for download from the site, these videos are usually around 5-40 megabytes in size, and it would only be 1-5 videos at any given time, the rest will be on BitTorrent, but this is not a requirement, it would be a plus.
We're also aiming at having some type of discussion forum/system available, a comment/ranking system for the videos, with several different categories, such as Aerobatic Flight, Helicopter 3D, Precision Flight, and more.
It's hard to guesstimate how much monthly bandwidth we would need, but the more the merrier, if it's flexible that would be best, I'm sure we can come to some form of agreement.
SQL/PHP is a must, a few pop3 email accounts would be nice aswell, "possibility" to make a monthly newsletter automated would be also be good.
I hope I havent forgotten anything important now, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Thank you!
Other RC websites for your consideration, if you're not familiar with the hobby.
