    ~1000 mb space, unlimited transfer. Help anyone!

    Does anyone know where i can get around 1000 mb of space with unlimited bandwidth? The price has to be reasonable though. Also, I want a site with UNLIMITED or a high amount of bandwidth. It can't be one that just doesn't monitor it, but shuts down your site when you use too much. (like what featureprice.com did to me!)

    PLEASE HELP! Thanks.

    Cool

    Unlimited bandwidth is a myth!!!

    How much bandwidth do you REALLY need?

    Well, it would have to go with the amount of space. If I had 1000 mb of space, I'd need at least 30 gb.

    30 GB/month isn't going to be cheap.

    Have you looked into a dedicated machine?

    Maybe you should look into some kind of resellers plan. They generally come with large amounts of web space and bandwidth. (You also have the all the usual resellers options like, adding/ modifying domains, setting space/ bandwidth limits on accounts...etc)

    Reseller Program

    Design R is right. For the space and the bandwidth you need you should look at a reseller plan. Its' the only way your site *should* avoid the "overuse of server resource" suspension issue at most hosts. But of course the reason most hosts allow these accounts significant resources like 30GB a month is because they are paying for it and that will be the rub I'll wager. To be realistic, you should be targeting between $45.00 - $60.00 per month to get what you need. That is $1.50 to $2.00 per GB bandwidth and a pretty aggressive price at that.

    Good Luck.

    Thanks for your help, everyone!! There's one more question though. Could anyone check out this site: http://www.meemsites.com/special.htm
    It's $9.95 per month and it offers 750 mb of space and 25 gb of bandwidth per month. Is that too good to be true? If Beachcomber is right about having to pay at least $45, is it possible to get good space like that for so cheap?
    If anyone can help, it would much appreciated.

    What's Rack Shack? I'm not using this space for anything special. It's just to hold files for downloading. Will it work?
