Specialized LP Hosting is here to stay!!

[jtcentral]

I've been running LP sites for years now and decided to open my own datacenter. This is not a colo'd rack or reselling of someone else's services...I have two Fiber connections in my own, private, energy efficient datacenter. So if your server acts up I can walk right up and kick it myself...not some middle man depending on someone else!

I have been running LP sites for a LOOOONG time and I've almost completely re-written LPV1 to be a spam proof, hacker proof, ultra efficient hosting platform. I've even written a custom compiled version of PHP 5.2.8 so I can control curl and fsock to allow my users to use them without killing my machine, doing Denial of Service Attacks, or turning it into a mail bomber. I've streamlined the efficiency to a point where I run 10 sites with a total of 184k users on a single quad CPU machine on 10 virtual machines.

So what do I have to offer you?

At the moment...Unmanaged hosting. It's all done on Isolated Virtual Machines (no shared resources like virtuozzo). I won't run an LP site any other way. (see my article on VM hosting for LP). I plan on offering my custom LPV1 site if there's enough interest in a managed format...so if that's what your interested in...let me know.

You will have full access to the support forum with warnings, mods and scripts, and basic LP support.
Hosting Features:

• Automated / Integrated Email Abuse System - When an abuse email comes in to me, the user's site is automatically suspended and must contact you to get turned back on. (this feature alone is worth hosting with me!!)
• Full Cacti graphing with bandwidth, CPU usage, User Count, Memory Usage, and Disk Space for your server
• Access to the support forum with mods, scripts, warnings, etc
• My personal cell phone number
• Bandwidth is capped...so no overages to worry about.
• Remote Reboot
• All VPS hosting is on RAID mirrors so no worry about drive failure (I may add weekly backups at a later time for a fee)
• When your service needs to grow...just upgrade and I'll seemlessly add resources.

Features of my Custom LPV1 that I may offer in the future:
Note -- This is all available on the forum and may be used on LPV2 if you can get it to work (I've never used LPV2).

• Paid Upgrade Option
• Monitoring for for keyloggers, phishing accounts, and proxies Accurately
• Custom Compiled PHP that lets you log CURL and FSOCK and control what sites can be accessed through them
• Custom Stats Disable (preserves a TON of hard drive IO)
• Disable Ticketing system and change links to support forum
• Check all images for Malware and virus's on the fly
• Disable javascript and phishing sites automatically on the fly
• Custom Scanner to scan for porn sites, foreign languages, phishing, etc (does not use CPU or hard drive)
• Check MIME types and not allow applications (viruses and malware via PHP)
• Email is allowed in PHP via Gmail
• Tons of APache script changes to lock it down and prevent movies, viruses, etc
• Apache mod to show what sites are currently being looked at
• Lockdown to prevent master pages and server from being access by anyone but you
• Limit FTP speed to prevent bots from slamming your server and building pages too fast
• Restrict Email addresses that sign up to prevent disposable emails
• Expired Site system to email the user 45 days after no login and then delete after 60
• Many many more to come...

My prices include license with upgrades and I'll do the installation.
I do not offer direct LP support on unmanaged...you must contract with LP to get that.

I have limited room and WILL NOT oversell at the cost of my current users!
