Hello,
Today I was looking at some bandwidth stats and suprised me that alot of clients were using some thing like 100mb,200mb,etc. You think it would be a good idea to increase the amount of bandwidth in each of my hosting packages?
Thank you
 
Sorry, no discussions about your products or services in non-advertising forums. Moved to Related Offers and Requests forum.

No problem. As to answering your question - we need to know what your current bandwidth limit is to tell you if increasing it is a good idea.

Best,
 
If your clients are only using 100-200mb I don't understand why you would consider increasing what you are offering.
 
Blue what I meant was since alot of people are using very less bandwidth these days why not increase the amount of bandwidth on each of my hosting packages? Do you think that will attract attention? So far I'm using 2.5% of the Servers BW (even though I have alot of clients)
 
I would actually go the other way if anything. Offer less and decrease pricing or just offer less. What you are suggesting is that you oversell your services based on current usage but that is not necessarily a good formula.
 
My thoughts exactly. If you are to start offering 100 GB bandwidth for $3 per month knowing that your users for a fact use only 200 MB bandwidth, this will certainly attract new users, but what if you really get 10 signups who would legally and consistenly use 95GB every month? Could be an ugly result.

What you can do is play it startegically. E-mail your clients and tell them since they for their loyalty you decrease their monthly bill by a dollar or two. This will not only be a cool thing for them, but they will stick with you for a longer period of time.

Best,
 
well. I'm not going to over sell that much. Maybe something for my first package 200mb/10GB $2/month.
Thanks
 
Well, even $2 for 10 GB is overselling. YOu certainly will get an army of clients for $2 and 10 Gb offer (well, you can probably match the offer by iPowerWeb or Globat with that strategy), but are you ready to to deal with them for $2? Considering the merchant transaction fees, licenses, upgrades - how will you even make money?
 
Hello,
I already make money. Make a decent profit and enough to pay all server bills. Currently I have 1TB of Bandwidth and using 2.5% Equals to only 25GB:p (975 Left). I was actually wondering why clients use so little.
Thanks
 
Client Exec Very Low Price!

EDITED:: 1 Advertising per 14 days. I have to remember that :)

Artashes sorry didn't know the other one counted. Edited.

Actually, they are not counted. Each advertising forum has a 1 ad per 14 day period rule, so go head and create one in either sub-forum.

I'm sorry for inconvenience caused. My mistake. :(

Best,
