I know this really isn't a correct list, but I know most of you have
experience in getting hosting, etc and you have been very helpful in my PHP
troubles, so maybe you can help me here, too! :)
Anyway, my site is currently colocated at a small ISP, that charges as
follows:
$265 - 2U rackspace + 8 GB traffic
+$8 each GB over 8
I just got my invoice for June, totaled at $947. That's 77 GB over my
alloted 8 GB. The site is growing and is very popular, so I am not
questioning the bandwidth number, but I am asking about the bandwidth rate.
Is $8/GB too much? Last I checked most hosting providers charge by how much
continuous bandwidth I use, for instance 512 kbps, 768 kbps, 1.5 mbps, etc.
What kind of numbers can you all give me for comparison? I want to see if I
am getting ripped off....
