I remember a thread somewhere about who charges the most per gig for transfer...

http://earthlink.net/biz/hosting/packages/
1 meg over is $0.10
So in the end, a gig costs you $102.40

I can just see the bill. $19.95 normal charge, $102.40 extra for going one gig over..

No if they were MS they woudl then add in a disclamer telling you that the server you are getting doesnt have Linux or Win Server on it so you need to purchase the lisence for it then tell you that you must also pay for all the cables and pay the electric bill and oh yeah also throw in a extra "small fee" of 99 more month for Tech SUpport thats available to you for 4 hours a day. LOL ;) :D

Talk about overcharging...

Semi-Dedicated Server:

Monthly: $99.95
Space: 1500 MB
Bandwidth: 40,000MB
POP3: 300
FTP: 50
Mailing: 5
Subdomains: 75
mysql: 15
SSL availiable: yes
Anonymous FTP: yes

I really want to know what the Dedicated servers cost... haha.

But then again, not all companies can afford smaller prices like RS, Serverbeach, etc.

If you want to offer low prices, you have to be commited to your business. We're here for the long run.

Those prices aren't actually that bad, I've seen much worse than that...:)

yes this actually looks like a decent deal if it was offered by a smaller host.
