I'm looking for a good deal on 1000 GB of transfer per month (actual or average measurement) in a NOC with fast internet connection and 24/7 emergency technical support (like reboots).


If anyone knows of any web hosts with $1.5 per GB or less please post them here.
If you are a host and can give a good price on at least 1000 GB of transfer per month please email me or post here, please include the co-location charges.

I can help without a problem. Drop me a line at my below contact info.

[contact me for pricing information]

Wow Jeff! Very good prices, indeed!

Is this just short term special deal or what?

Gee... I wish I need that much bandwith!

cheer,
:beer:

We'll create a custom quote for any interested individuals... That pricing is available to any interested parties.

Regards,

So jacques you are colocating with NYI??

You already know that I have a partnership with New York Internet (NYI) Jay. So why ask?

Only conclusion I can come to is that you think that by exposing this, I may loose this potential client.

I'm an honest person and I offer quality services. I have absolutely nothing to hide.

Thank you and have a nice day.

vizi, check your email.

I never said you weren't honest, I am just asking, I thought you just had a t1 from them. But with what you posted it is colocation. I didn't know NYI offered bandwidth prices at that level. That is all. I am not trying to hinder this oppertunity.

I'm sorry if I sounded rude. That wasn't my intention.

A T1?? You can't even host 1 person on there :D

All of our servers are in a secured facility connected to a redundant OC12.

Right, got it. Now check your mail :)

I know all about NYI's facility.

Since when is CGI a "programming language?". Since when is HTML a "programming language", etc.? C++, but no C? You don't like better speed? *L* j/k... Actually, I'm just being a smart ass. Nice looking site...

Thanks Tim :)

I never know that bandwith can be this cheap .... Still remember there is an old post where people keep arguing whether $1/GB is possible.... http://webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?threadid=4551 :D

cheers,

If you have access to a large enough NOC, it's definitely possible, depending on the size of your lines and the price yoy can get. I've seen NOC's get it for $0.50/GIG, but that's not the client price. Wow, $0.75 or $0.80/GIG, is about as low as any client's going to get. Any lower might not be possible for the client, without the quality suffering. I know that for $0.80/GIG, you can get quality, but too much below that, and it's geting risky and especially out of the few NOC's that can and will give you that kind of price.

I'm suprised your saying that. I've had nothing but good experiences with BBNPlanet/Genuity. Their very reliable up in this area (NYC area).

Call it what you want, but I for one don't think that is very good business practice to cut down the competition. Someone under bid you. Fine. Either leave it at that, or if you still think you can make money, then counter. But to cut them down is just plain rude.

I apologize if my comment was taken the wrong way. I was just trying to justify why our prices are higher. I stand by my pricing mentioned above. I had no intention of cutting down another host.

Regards,

Any price below $1 per GIG is good nomatter where you go. The only thing you have to consider is not how far below $1 a gig you go, but the quality of the bandwidth and the facility.

Just to bring it to your attention Genuity leases their lines (29 I believe, most of which arent turned on) from Qwest. And I am sure most will agree that Qwest has one of the best backbones..

-BW

It doesn't matter if the lease it from Qwest, Williams or whoever, they get it as Lite Fiber and Lite Fiber is Lite Fiber. What makes a backbone good is, the router, peering, the technology, the staff and reliablity. Weather they use Qwest or not is irrelevant.

This Jacques guy from the competition just called my house (NOTE: NOT MY OFFICE, MY HOUSE) to talk to me about my offer. Apparently he charges using 95th percentile, and cannot match my offer which uses monthly average billing from MRTG.

In the future, anyone who would like to talk to me about my offers, please call my office number at 877-975-8793 or drop me an e-mail. I do not appreciate calls at home, especially since he called the wrong number to begin with.

I apologize for calling you at the number I did. It was wrong of me and I apologize. You live, you learn. My bad.

I didn't want you to loose this potential client because of my mistake. I just wanted to refer him to you and wanted to talk to you about how to best aproach this so you would benefit out of this client.

I apprecate the thought, but you could have done just the same thing by sending me an e-mail. The user "energy" already has three (with a fourth coming online today probably) servers with me, so I'm confident that if I have a decent price he'll continue to do business with me.

Regards,

I'm sorry Jeff, I shouldn't have call you at that number. My bad.

I'm happy to hear that I didn't ruin this opportunity for you :)

Looks like vizi just dropped out of the race.
Anyone else?

mods: please remove the useless posts

All do it for .10/gig with a reoccuring monthly service charge of 10.00/gig each month.... :)

Those are some good bandwidth prices you guys have, we get very very competitive bandwidth pricing from our providers and I find it hard to match those prices, how do you do it :)

Cbaker17: Bandwidth pricing continues to get lower and lower as the amount of total bandwidth around the world gets higher and higher. Location has a lot to do with it too; I know that I can't even come close to those prices here in Greenville, but in our Columbus, Ohio facility it's not a problem to get bandwidth at that pricing.

Regards,

Jeff:

I am curious about something. Your serverhost.com is on VDI and domainbuilder.net is on Alabanza. Where is your datacenter?

I did a trace to serverhost.com and it didn't come up in VDIs noc.

WOW - over in the UK it is about 2p per MB - that is £20 ($30) a GIG!

So, urm... =)

PS - sorry it wasn't fully on-topic

We still have servers at Alabanza, and no, we do not have any servers at VDI. You must be pulling up an old DNS record, because it's been pointing to our data center for a long time.

Some of you may ask about the secondary name server IP address, so I'll go ahead and explain - we signed up for a server with ***** at $59/month, and it hasn't gone down except for when we told it to reboot, so we figured it would be good for secondary DNS since *****'s network is pretty fast.
