I've been with GTHost.com Santa Clara servers for eight months but am always getting surprised as to how fast responses are to my questions and how friendly all of their staff is. Uptime has been nothing but the best and definitely lives up to their 99.9% uptime guarantee. I feel confident knowing my site is in safe, professional hands.

If you're starting a video-on-demand platform, you’ll need a strong dedicated server with at least 8 CPU cores, 32GB RAM, SSD storage, and fast internet (1Gbps+). A GPU (like NVIDIA) is helpful if you need to encode videos fast. GTHost offers quick setup and low prices, but support can be mixed. Other good options include InterServer (great value, starts at $49/month with free IPMI), Hetzner (cheap in Europe), OVH, and Hivelocity (high-end servers). Choose based on your budget and where your users are located.
