Default Costs

There are a couple of ways that someone could do this.

Free: Your isp may provide you with web space and if you have a cable or dsl connection you could host the video from your computer. That would require running your computer at all times you want the video to stream and there would be some resource draw on your computer depending on your hardware. I have done this before and it works great & it's free. You could even use a dns service to mask your ip and make the url easier, also free. There are online services that host web cams or video for free.

Paid: You could buy web space on a server and have them host the video for you but you would still have to upload (ftp) from your computer to the server. This would give a more professional look and isn't that much. I sell basic hosting packages from $10/month with 300 megs of space and 10 gigs of transfer. Your video stream would be hard pressed to exceed (or even come close) to 10 gigs of transfer.

Bye, Keana
