How long is a piece of rope?

A website will take as much room as it needs..

it all depends on the size of your forum/website..

and when you say it is going to be a rapidshare website do you mean it will host files or just index them?

[royalmarine]

just index them. would 5gb harddrive space cover it?

im just looking at plutost inc for a plan.

yes it would be fine to start off..

my site takes up about 500mb-1gb in total so 5gb will be enough mate..
