i want to make a youtube like website

[gmilh]

+ a server for processing 

it will be a network for *egyptian and arab gamers*

with a 25k avg

why not youtube

cuz the most famous youtuber in egypt is 40k subs

so not a lot of money

+ a better community for the good youtubers

*no noobs*

So let me get this straight.

The most popular Egyptian Youtuber (even in my country there is a "most popular youtuber" who basically ripped off Pewdiepie) has only 40k subscribers, meaning that not enough Egyptians interested in gaming watch Youtube, so your idea is to create another video network, with even less visibility.

Also you plan to earn money with it, which is easy on YouTube since it's owned by Google which also own AdSense, while you would have to somehow make a company agree to pay you to air their ad on your network.

Now, it is safe to assume that if there are only 40k willing to watch this most famous guy on Youtube, probably much less will watch anything on this new network, meaning that a company would have to agree to pay you for airing ads for an audience of less than 40k people.

 

Now, I don't want to keep you from doing whatever you plan to do, but from what I managed to understand of your situation you are trying to tilt at windmills.

how is owning your on site gonig to be any better?

and this is per MONTH

this is per month, for the cheapest one i could find. i'd actually be surprised if those boxes can handle 20 clients each cpu and ram wise.

they're basicly some via board thats squeezes with literally hundreds into one rack,

this guy's order would probably be about 10 racks worth of servers, with another 22 racks worth of the same datacenter's top tier data servers, costing around another €20K/mo

 

if we forget they probably dont have that many dedis sitting idle, and their internal network can handle the talking between the servers (they actually have higher in-center data speeds) this'll potentially cost around €30K monthly, with before mentioned setup fees, as their storage boxes dont have setup fees.

 

this offcourse all depending on the idea of having perfect scaling with additional boxes, which isnt a thing at all.

 

factoring in you'll need a maintenance crew and admins i'm gonna put it around the €50K monthly ballpark (sysadmins arent cheap, yknow)

this not factoring in potential software licenses, or other required licenses.

or y'know, you could try and get one or two sponsors going on top of your youtube ad revenue. (which aint much at all)
