store videos in another partition

[xloveit]

Hello. I have an adult tube website. I installed the site on the server. I installed wordpress. I am using wp-script. I do not take videos from other sites. I am installing from my computer. I click the upload video button in the Wordpress video section and upload the videos.

cloudflare banned me. for caching videos. My website has a problem. I host the videos on my website. I was going to host the videos elsewhere and link them on my site.

someone gave me advice. for example; He recommended that I take videos from mywebsite.com and move them to videos.mywebsite.com. How will I do this?

You asked the question and you gave the answer too.

You create a simple Nginx server to store and serve videos from your subdomain.

You can easily do it in just 10 minutes.

You can setup another (“hosting”) server to store those files. Just setup server, point dns to subdomain, embed videos, etc.

That way you can also stream from aux server via your website.

Like you said it can be trivial but config can be complex if user is not familiar with advanced nginx setup (streaming, proxy-ing, etc.). Another point is bandwidth pricing between servers because this can eat someone’s budget very fast.

Ok. This is the part of my website. Hestia is on the panel. What will I create here?

The script I used in the image below. The part where I uploaded the video. I won't be uploading videos from here. I will link here. What will be the link of the videos that I connect via ftp and upload to the area I just set up?

He needs to hire a developer to do it. Most dedicated servers offer unlimited bandwidth, so it's not a serious issue.

Apart from that, not all websites consume huge bandwidth; he needs to receive millions of visitors a month in order to start worrying about BW.

After all, he has to first worry about DMCA issues before BW issues. I believe the OP is already aware of such things.

yes there is no problem with bandwidth. The company I bought the server from did not give any warning. cloudflare banned me. If my site is attacked in the future, I cannot benefit from cloudflare security.

yes there is no problem with bandwidth. The company I bought the server from did not give any warning. cloudflare banned me. This is exactly my problem. If my site is attacked tomorrow, I cannot benefit from cloudflare security.

You can reactivate Cloudflare (I'm not sure, though), or use another CDN service.


No one will attack your site unless or otherwise it starts ranking on Google.

You don't even need to use a CDN service, if Nginx is configured properly to handle DDoS attacks.

What about BunnyNet?

8k people visit my site per day and I get 110k page views. I'm rising fast every day. but if you say that there is no problem. so no problem for now. I don't need to bother. Let me continue my work.

It's hard to comment anything about the security of your site without knowing much about it.

That was general advice. It's always recommended that you take all the necessary steps to protect your site from hackers.

you are right. I guess I need to start from "add hestia panel subdomain" and learn. so this should be my first step?

Seriously, I'm not aware of it as I use dedicated servers with custom configuration. If it's a trusted panel, go with it. And, yes, you should start by creating the subdomain for the static files and protecting your site with Cloudflare.

thank u very much <3 <3

one last question: for example my website name: mywebsite.com and subdomain name: video.mywebsite.com .

When I copy the videos into the subdomain, how will the link be? so the link is now: https://mywebsite.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/blablalba.mp4

How will the new link start?

How will the new link start?

It'll be just like the file path in the computer.

example.com/folder/file.txt

Why you dont use doodstream or bunny?
Any particular reason?

You basically bought domain and hosting and want to host all videos on that hosting besides your website code?
Correct?

Why, if I may ask? Why keeping videos on same hosting is good?

From Doodstream/Bunny you can stream them, you dont have to worry for disc space.
Just host a website and "forget it". Of course there are other problems but for disc space its ok.

Doesn't cloudflare allow to cache videos? I know that there isn't a problem with images, interesting

I am using wp-script and am satisfied. I download videos from telegram or upload sites like turbobit. I place and render my own brand. Then I upload it to my server and share it.
This is how I started, this is how I continue. I get 120k page views every day, I can't change my system.

It's been 4-5 months since I was banned from cloudflare. I don't remember the exact description. But it was about the videos. I also deleted my website from cloudflare. Now, I will create a subdomain name and transfer my videos there from day to day. I will add my website to cloudflare again.
