BW overage charges?
 

i know Bandwidth charges have come down quite a bit in past few years. What is the current going rate per mbit on quality hosting? (fully managed servers)

Techimedia had my account set up at $20 per mbit

MojoHost has it set up at $12

:2 cents:

Thanks for the info :thumbsup

Price typically comes down with volume as well.

I got a friend who just started at a new hosting outfit. I'll hit him up and see what they're offering (he hooked up my martial arts instructor with a sweet deal on the school's website).

Please tell company, prices and amount of bw. I might use it against my hosting company to get prices a little lower ;-)

Keep 'em coming guys.

so $60 per mBit is a bit high?

Extremely high.

ouch.....

OMFG ................. it is INSANELY high. if your current host is sticking you with $60 per mbit overages I would VERY unhappy with them.

there is no host so good that they should be over 20 per mbit these days. unless they're dropping by your house to shovel snow and cut the lawn as well.

Is anyone paying MORE than $60 per mbit?

Oh wow... are you in the bent position yet? :2 cents:

why would anyone in their right mind pay more?

You can get 3-6$ with volume

send this pic to your host

Ghost hit me up so i can get your requirements we can give you a great deal in comparison to those you have posted :thumbsup

I know someone paying $3 a mbps, then again he has a 12gbps commit for his tube site

If you can get someone on a 12 gig commit i can match that or possibly beat it :thumbsup

fuck yeah... i had a host overcharge me like that once, we settled for pennies on the dollar, i moved my shit the next day or so

With most hosts the overage price will be determined by other factors like is it Quality BW or a mixture of Junk low end crap, what your base package is, like server prices, bandwidth ect.... I am with Techiemedia and actually I dont even have a commit, they charge me for actual usage and that amount is on a sliding scale so the more I use the less it costs, and do around 135 megs.:pimp

That host is an Idiot, and the next in line at the bankruptcy court right behind Alpha Red ...LOL some people will never learn that selling any product whether it be BW or a loaf of bread at cost or close to it, is a very unsucessful business model. OK move along now.:2 cents::2 cents:

i'm paying .40 cents per gig overage... guess that's way too much as well

Great to talk with you on icq Mike. Very helpful :thumbsup

I would like that rate for my Mojo account!

hmm how about $4 per mbit --------> http://www.10tb.com/dedicated-hosting/unmetered.php

The trick with these 4 buck a meg deals is that you are paying for 100 megs but you cant do 100 megs on the capped 100 meg port, maybe 95 ish megs at best. Also most people will do maybe 50 of the megs thus your now paying 8 bucks a meg or maybe you only do 25 megs so now 12 bucks a meg, and so on......:2 cents::2 cents: also it's typically junk quality BW like nlayer, cogent, wvfiber or some other mix of peered off low grade junk.:2 cents:

Anytime :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

Is this thread about BW or the penalty for going over?
I pay $150/month for 3mbps, and $25 for every mbps I go over. its a managed server though, 24 hour support

they wouldnt offer it unless they could provide it, and its a very large adult host.

they've been around for years, and dont plan on going anywhere

OK you keep thinking that.........:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Ghost, Hit me up on ICQ or email, we'd love to talk to you about your bandwidth requirements and what we can do for you at NationalNet

Kevin

I have unlimited mbps no extra charges

What hosting?

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

$6/meg at http://www.yellowfiber.net/

Overage is $7/meg

Good luck with it...

Appreciate all the replies, and good talking with everyone on icq :thumbsup

2 many variables to give answer. We get good rates however we had to make a monthly commitment

Now thats the hosting to start a huge tube site on with full movies :1orglaugh
