$12.00 a gig???

Am I reading that right?

We're looking for a cheap non-adult host for my boss' web site (that I can leech GFY postings from) so a flat rate is better than one that adjust per gig.

Anyone know of a good one?

JFPdude · 04-18-2002, 01:29 PM

Hmm define cheap

Prohosters.com Has a non adult deal going for $49 a year.

I might consider using them for my movies galleries

Damn $12/gig they must have a ton of overhead. But these prices are not unheard of in mainstream hosting.

Jer · 04-18-2002, 02:39 PM

TERRA in Brazil charges about $11.00 per gig

For a cheap non-adult site that only needs 3GB or less transfer a month you can use 3-95.com ($39.50/year).

Brad Mitchell · 04-18-2002, 03:01 PM

Christ if I could charge 12 bucks a gig I could sit on my ass all day and be lazy and rich. Oh wait, I already do that. LOL

JFPdude · 04-18-2002, 03:03 PM

I have the lazy part down pat. Now to work on the rich part .... Hmm.

OH FUCK !

You guys won't believe me. Our main domain is hosted in a local hosting company since 1999. It's fucking slow last days, so we sent emails and I just called them. It is a non-adult site, so we had a unlimited transfer plan. They said it was valid for just 1 year, and asked if we wanted them to send me us new contract.
I asked how much per gig, they said US$ 24.00 (R$55).
I was going to laught , but I just said "Thanks" and "bye".

Fuck them !

Jer · 04-19-2002, 11:44 AM

And we use just 20 - 30GB per month.

Jer · 04-19-2002, 11:59 AM

And it couldn't a mistake like forgeting the DOT (US$2.4 - R$ 5.5), since it was over the phone. I fucking can't believe.

Kimmykim · 04-19-2002, 12:05 PM

Hahaha that is funny.

The big sales pitch on the mainstream side used to be storage space amount, they never really took into account the bandwidth transfer since there wasn't any real amount on 99% of the non adult sites.

I guess they finally caught on to where the money goes.

Jer · 04-19-2002, 12:07 PM

And we had just a 5MB hosting plan upgrated to be 10MB.

Jer · 04-19-2002, 02:29 PM

I'm not happy, not happy.
