Need A Lot Of Banwidth

I am looking for around 1 GB of space and alot of bandwidth - at least 100GB to start out with.
I don't want a dedicated server, since I am not that tech savvy. And I don't want any of those 'unlimited' plans.

So does anybody have any ideas where I can get something like this?

What type of price are you willing to pay?

You are going to be looking at upwards of at least $400/mo. and probably more than that. 100 GB per month will cost the host between $200/mo. and $1000/mo. (the average that a host pays for bandwidth is $2/GB). And the amount of storage space you want is going to cost a little bit. If you are willing to pay upwards of $500/mo., you will probably be able to find one.

That's a lot of money. However, I found a place - michlink.com that offers what I want for only a $100. Are they too good to be true? Anyone use them before?

I don't know if they're being honest or not, but if they are and can really give you 100 GB of traffic at only $100 per month, I'd like to know where they have their servers because I'll move mine there.

As Chad said, bandwidth is expensive (Chad through out a figure of $2 - I actually think that it should be closer to $3 per GB at wholesale for the average web host). And with 1 GB of space... well, I'd say you need to be on a dedicated server. And, as Chad said, you're looking at $400 to $1000 per month for that.

You can go ahead and try Michlink - please by all means report back what you find. If they are legitimately able to offer what they claim then I'd say you're getting one hell of a bargain.

Good luck,

No host will give you 1G of Space on there server and be allowed to pull atleast 100G of bandwidth. You have to look into a dedicated server. Contact me and I can help you out on finding a dedicated server, or I can help you out any further.

It seems they are using RAQ. You might run into CGI script problems...
