Recommended Posts

Ok, we have quite a few awesome hosts here at BW. We are wondering if any are interested in offering 10% off their services on the 10th of November JUST for BW members. We will make a whole page for you guys with links to your site and logos (and the special code).

 

Its just 10% off on the 10th of November. Anyone interested? I will get some more info on this...

This is a great idea but the only question I have is - is this a 10% off for one month or 10% off the duration of the service?

Depends on the host. I would like hosts to reply to that :)

I think if you pay for a year upfront, you get 10% off that. If you only pay for a month, you get 10% off that month.

Stream101 will be doing it for the duration of the hosting, on the monthly payment (not quarterly, etc.)

Hosts will more than likely take 10% off any day. Just tell them that if you don't you'll be heading over to another competitor that does. They would rather forgo the few dollars than to lose you as a customer entirely. How do I know? I have done it to many times.

Just to bring loudcity into this...

Yesterday I was told by one that they cant match the deal I found the deal was 5 bucks cheaper.

He obviously wanted to go with a better host than the one that had a sale. The one that had a sale might have been a cheapo new host compared to the other one that refused to match a price. Why would you match a price to a host that cannot get their maths right? We are doing the 10% off from the reputable and well known hosts, from the years ive been on the net, ive never seen a sale at stream101.com or shoutcaststreaming.us. Have you?

I hold nothing back from fellow LC broadcasters. If I have a deal, you have a deal. I would like to think that AJ took advantage of my advice for his stream host needs (nope I didn't sell him anything). There are always cheaper hosts, but there's always also getting what you pay for. I told him what I would do.

 

The 10% off sale should remain, not everyone needs a dedi server. Thats why hosts sell slots.

Shoutcastreaming.us always is running specials and promotions. There are a lot more stream hosts than on your list of 8 "reputable hosts." A lot of these hosts constantly have deals because the competition is so fierce amongst the sc hosts. This is why I continue and will always recommend going to RTB, comparing at least 10 to 15 hosts and their prices, than going in for the best deal by doing a little smart shopping.

 

You do get what you pay for...but with proper research, you can get a sc server for quite cheap with excellent support.

 

One suggestion to hosts...consider offering unsupported (except for connectivity, cpanel issues) sc servers for the lowest possible price, and then offer a beginning hosting package for a little bit more that includes support for things beyond what you are responsible for (helping them to setup encoders, providing instructions that could be looked up via google, etc.). This way you are getting paid for the support that you offer, while those that don't require that much help will understand that they can't get additional support from your company unless paying more. It is an interesting idea...but could it work?

Stream101 has had several specials that were on LoudCity exclusively at their forums, we currently have a LoudCity special that is 20% off.

 

We also have Holiday Specials, as it gets around to that time, those will be posted as well
