I'm proud to announce that after much.... disagreement.. with my ISP, my download and UPLOAD speeds have both been upgraded from 512 and 128 to 1500 and 256.

If anyone finds it possible to fit it into there spare time, would you please check to see how slow my web site now loads? :-)

I thought my upload was low for a website and I have 550 to 600 kbps upload on average. I want a megabit.

As for the speed, at the moment your site times out.

Loads double the speed it used to (I checked it this morning but did not have time to post). It is however down at the moment.

Also, I only have 400Kbps upload and it managed over 50,000 hits daily on my forums, websites etc. Im currently hosted on a dedicated server in san fransisco with a 100Mbps up/down connection.

This particular server is $135/month but you can get them as low as $65/month depending on the specs and operating system you want.

Load time is about 4.5 seconds. Not bad for that upload speed.

It still loads slowly for me, but then again that is something to do with my s**t broadband connection. I get a faster upload (about 600Kbps), than download (about 100Kbps). How the hell does that work?

Mod Edit: Please don't swear!
