What does your hosting company charge for bandwidth on regular hosting accounts, NOT dedicated servers??

Average 5-10$ per GB over, $1.50-3 for base. Some ask for $.50 base and then $1.50 over if they dont want profit.

We charge $6 per gigabyte over. However, as a policy we never charge for overages without prior consultation with the client. :)

"Additional data transfer may be pre-ordered at $1.50 per GB/mo. Bandwidth overages are billed at $2.25 per GB/mo."

Got that off our hosting page. Cheers!

It depends a lot on the datacenter where your server is located...
If the bandwidth costprice is high, there's little you can do.... :)

Have a great day :)

Yes indeed.

We for example are in the NAC data center, and are paying about $3/GB ourselves. And that's excluding servers, staff, credit card processing, support and many other costs which people tend to forget about.
