My term with my hosting company expires in April. I have a colocated
server (which I own). I use about 150-200 GB per month. I want to have
a straightforward deal where I pay some $$ per gig, perhaps with some
extra monthly fee (for power and space) and that's all.

What would be a reasonable rate in terms of dollars per gigabyte, that
I could reasonably expect to get. Thanks.

I could tell you what I'm paying, but without knowing what you're paying I
can't judge if you would find it reasonable or not.

I thought that I asked a simple question.

I am paying $1.50 per gig if I divide what I pay per month, by the
estimate of gigs per month.

Is there anyone who hosts high traffic websites?

You must have a lot of big files on your server or one hell of a lot of
visitors to use 150-200 gig per month we get 6 to 7K visitors a day and
only use 15 to 20 Gig a month

200 gig a month in the UK would be very expensive

Ask a simple question, get a simple answer.

I'm paying $2.00 per gig, but I'm not doing anything like that kind of
bandwidth.

I have a site algebra.com that generates a lot of formula and graph
images.

My question still stands. How much to pay per gig.

Is that per month for BW? So, if you have 50Gs of BW you pay $100 a month?
