are you looking to purchase your own server and colocate it to a data center?
or are you looking for Rent TO Own?
for co location, the cost will be for your hardware + a monthly fee for rack space, Bandwidth as well as Power.These depend on the place where you will buy the rack space

which country are you from? and are you looking to colocate it nearby?
if you are looking to colocate it far or to another country you should look for better support while if you are looking to colocate it nearby, support wont matter much.
the price will depend on which area you want to colocate.how much rack space you require, bandwidth you require along with the power requirement

Do you already have your own server to colocate? If not, companies offer RTO (Rent To Own) solutions

these will help.
if you dont have server already, you can rent to own or lease hardware and then colocate.

ok.
see first you have to decide a few thing.
when you have a dedicated, the hardware management, replacement is all done by the company from where you buy. in colocation, this has to be mostly done by you. or pay for remote hands(around 30-40Eur per half hour).
next, do you have the hardware?
how much bandwidth do you require?

are you looking to colocate 1 server or more?
as generally, colocation is better for people with more servers

lubna do you really need your own server, also look at VPS as an option, buying your own server co locating it managing it will be too costly and time consuming. So if you want it for few lightweight sites, you can go for a good reseller account or a VPS.
