I'm looking for a good provider for a webhosting business I'm starting. Lookinng for best unlimited bandwidth,e ven though i probably won'tpush more then 10 per month for the first 5-6 months. I'm looking for a place to scale bandwidth as i have the need without an big price jump. If anyone has some ideas let me know.

Thanks
Mike

You may want to consider searching WHT for the "unlimited bandwidth" phenonemeon

:erm: No offence, but there is nothing like "unlimited bandwith".. www.unlimband.com for more info..

By 10 do you mean 10GB? You can get good reseller accounts providing much more than that, but it totally depends upon your needs, as you want to colo and if you are tight on budget you can go with cogent providers and if you want the top level support+speed you can go with the more expensive ones available. I recommend you search the forums for more info on various colo providers :)

thanks for the quick replies. I'll check out the site. I've done colo before but didn't have a good business plan and was not prepared. I'm a seasoned Sys Admin so i want my own box that i put together out there. So that blows away the dedicated route. Also I'm a php dev guy so i have a system I think will be very successfull now and will pll in a lot of clients. Also I want to be in control of everything and you cannot do that with reselling.
