Just thought I'd let you guys know how right you were. Just last night I got an email from the hosting company I resell for that they were going to have a $ 10USD per year support fee.

Maybe next year it will go to $ 20USD ??? Still a good price!

Thank you,
I agree with you.

Yes, disk space is cheap. Bandwidth? If you're talking about Cogent, yes, it is very cheap. However, providers like Internap, Level3, Savvis & PCCWBTN are still offering a slightly more expensive price.

The main reason that refrains most provider from selling huge diskspace + huge bandwidth for very low price is due to server reliability and customer service. There is a limit for the number of sites (also the activity of site) that a server can handle, CPU limit is always a factor here. If you do not earn enough from each sales, it takes forever for you to earn enough to start another server. Let's say your price is half of Provider A, to earn enough to start another server, you're going to put twice the number of sites on your server if compared to Provider A. If that's the case, which server do you think is more reliable?

No offence, but I'm just voicing out my opinion. I'm bored of seeing customers who look for the largest diskspace and bandwidth combination with the cheapest price possible but in the end suffer from low quality service, and ranting everywhere in forums.

Thanks.
