1 server? You'll start a 'filehosting business' with 1 server and you want to know the conversion rates? You don't know the first thing about filehosting. I suggest you quit on the idea while you're ahead.

[John]

what is a first thing about filehosting?

[ENC0DE]

If you wanna waste some money, go ahead.. when you clearly dont know anything about filehosting.

lifetalk every company start small

[John]

Well I want to learn. It is better to ask and see what I need to do then waste my money and don't do anything

[Jesse]

Please don't do it. I imagine it is a lot less then 300:1. Probably in the high thousands:1 signup. You'll need many more servers then that with more power.

Maybe making a business strategy will help you get an overview of all expenses etc. you'll need to know about.
Just try to think for yourself; FileServe gives all members 500GB of space. Now let's say that 10 members signs up and uploads 500GB each, that's 5TB (5000GB), and you've already manage to (almost) fill your one-server disc. Good luck..

It's better to have 5 less power servers mate than 1 high end. It doesn't work like that.

[John]

and what do you think if I buy server at net100tb - I heard that megaupload have servers there

8 GB RAM
6x1.5TB SATA HDD (Raid)
1 GigE (1000Mbit) Dedicated Port
100 TB Premium Bandwidth!

That is good right? I can start there

Now let's say that 10 members signs up and uploads 500GB each, that's 5TB (5000GB), and you've already manage to (almost) fill your one-server disc. Good luck..

In example above hard drive is 6x1 TB
Well 6TB of files will probably generate some revenue right?
