so you're just looking for a reseller package with a lot of transit?

maybe that's why the hostquote didn't turn up anything for you ...


cheers

Yeah looks like you can use a large reseller package. Try talking to some companys, they may consider putting together a custom plan for your budget :).

You may want to raise your budget if you want something reliable.

I could raise maximum $10, it depends, off course on what they provide. I saw a great pan at tomsyer.net, but is site is Under Maintenance. Yes i know that they have some bad reviews, but i had a reseller account with them and almost 99% ok, only 1 or 2 things, small things and resolved the next day.
Does someone know and recommmend some host that offer those big plans (semi-dedicated) .

I dunno. for $40 you should be able to find a decent host.


that's just my two cents though ....

Anyone using 250gb shouldn't be on a shared server in my opinion. You need your own server or maybe a VPS but probably more like your own server.

Not true. It depends on what kind of traffic he's getting. We have many clients using upwards of 300 gb transfer on a shared server with absolutely no trouble. Of course, if its a message board site or something that is mySQL intensive, etc. then you would be correct.

I plan to host only 3 or 4 sites, that offers free hosting images.

VARhosting have a budget reseller package which is $21.95 per month and 200Gb traffic. And as a bonus you get 20Gb of storage to boot.

I would recommend that you get a VPS, which would be managed, servint has a nice offer with 200GB bandwidth for $49 http://www.servint.net/whtvps/

Yah, that's what I meant. Also download sites pulling 10gb can cause issues. We just had to move one site to a dedicated server that was pulling 30gb daily in mpeg files. Even on 100mbps on a dual proc, the pipe was choked.

free image hosting shouldn't cause a problem though.

250GB/month would probably work out to about 100K/s. I don't see that causing a problem on any shared box seeing as most of them are probably on 100Mbit pipes....


cheers!

You can have a VPS for this issue.
I recommend DefenderHosting and PowerVPS.

I think DefenderHosting is better for your needs!
You can have 5GB space+200GB bandwidth+MANAGED service for $40/m.

Please check http://defenderhosting.com/vps/

Good luck,
Regards:)
