30FPS
Limit data rate to 1000 KBytes/s
Best quality
1280 x 720
With those settings i just rendered a 2 minute intro and the file size came to be 124MB and the quality was hardly above "good" IMHO when watching it.
EDIT: I just reduced the res to 800 x 520 and still got the same 124 MB file size. What do i doooo!?
Isnt there a way to insert "I want my file size to equal ____" and then just hit render?
Help me get my file size down, IDC if i have to use a new compressor, i just want to upload in HD with a small file size.

Firstly ditch AE as your source of encoding. It is primarily an effects suite with an encoding section tagged on that is not very good.
Render as Uncompressed/ lossless. This will provide a huge ass file in the gb's.
Choose from the myriad of encoders out there to render it down to the file size you wish, here are some examples:
Sony Vegas
StaxRip
MegUI
AzxGUI
There are a number of tutorial links on WCM but here is one on how to use MegUI:
