    Hosting plan review

    I just wanted to get some opinions on plans I put together and price.

    Bronze Package
    100MB of space
    5GB of bandwidth
    $4.99 a month
    $49.99 Paid Yearly

    Silver Package
    250MB of space
    10GB of bandwidth
    $9.99 a month
    $99.99 Paid Yearly

    Gold Package
    500MB of space
    25GB of bandwidth
    $12.99 a month
    $139.99 Paid Yearly

    Platinum Package
    750MB of space
    50GB of bandwidth
    $16.99 a month
    $179.99 Paid Yearly

    Forum Package
    1000MB of space
    75GB of bandwidth
    $21.99 a month
    $234.99 Paid Yearly

    Master Package
    1500MB of space
    100GB of bandwidth
    $26.99 a month

    Super Master Package

    I am not sure about the prices. Am I to high? Or to low? I took a look around and I seem to be in the middle on some things.

    Thanks for any opinions

    I think you have too many plans and that will be confusing to the customer. Also, think you should bag the Olympic medal names and use something more creative.

    Those seem like reasonable prices. 5 plans isn't as bad as 7 :]

  5. them plans seem pretty good, depending on the other features you off (php, mysql etc)
    for names, give them bazzar names, i have yet to see ANY host use just random words as a package name lol.... *goes and starts a host with random words*

    Thanks guys!!! I have been thining and thinking of names and something will come to me lol.

    Thanks for all the help. This message board is trully the best place for people to get info on anything to do with hosting.

    Edited

    Yeah I offer PHP, MySQL, Java, all the goodies. I have a DS and have the means to get anohter when ever the time comes that I need another added.

    I want to focus on quality for the customers over getting thousands I can not manage and just upset them.

    One trick I'm going to do is scale down the number of certain things (such as pop email accounts, domains, ftp accounts, and sql databases) for the lower priced plans. No need for unlimited anything, just encourages people to pick the lowest common denominator.
    So far I have not needed to make 31 posts thanks to the search function.

    Pull an abbott and costello

    customer: "i ordered the what server and..."
    you: "which server?"
    customer: "no the what server"
    you: "what server are you talking about?"
    customer: "yeah that one!"
    you: "which one?"
    customer: "the what one"
    you: "..."
    customer: "nevermind, I'll figure it out myself..."

    nevermind, I'm drunk...

    they look like good prices to me! (better than what I'm paying for, but in 2 years I've only experienced one downtime, so it's worth it =P)

    I think you have too many plans with disk space under 1000mb compared to plans offering more than 1000mb.

    Why do you say that. I do not offer Resellers. Most sites do not use what is given and 1500MB is a lot of space

    I think it would be even better if you cut it down to just 3 or 4 plans. Keep things simple for the customer, let them know what they're getting, don't bombard them with information!
