You can take advantage of our dedicated hosting services both in your capacity as a reseller of dedicated, VPS and semi-dedicated servers, and as a client yourself, i.e. you can use them for your own hosting needs.

When running a dedicated server, one of the most important server resources that is strictly related to your websites, hosting accounts and the dedicated machine as a whole, is the server's bandwidth. In case that you pick up a cPanel Dedicated Server, you can check its usage in two ways.

1. You can check the Bandwidth Usage of all server accounts under WHM. This can be done by visiting the following WHM section:

Account Information >> View Bandwidth Usage

This tool logs all the HTTP, FTP, SMTP and POP3 traffic an ordinary account can use.

2. You can check detailed information related to the bandwidth usage pertaining to any particular cPanel account on your Dedicated Server! To do this, log into the client's account and go to

Logs >> Bandwidth

There you can find particular information as to what service is using a lot of bandwidth - pretty useful when narrowing down problems related to excessive bandwidth usage.

In case that you decide to go for a DirectAdmin-based Dedicated Server, in order to check the disk space and bandwidth usage, click on the "Statistics" icon from the main Control Panel menu. Note that DirectAdmin uses total usage (not domain usage) to determine when quotas have been exceeded!

If you've chosen the WHCP Control Panel, you can always check your Bandwidth statistics by going to the appropriate section:

Live Stats >> Bandwidth Stats

With our dedicated server hosting solution, you are given both the opportunity to order the service for yourself and enjoy the benefits of using the fastest and most reliable dedicated servers, VPS servers or semi-dedicated servers in comparison to what the market commonly offers nowadays, or to actually start reselling these dedicated server hosting services and earn profits doing so.
