I need lots of bandwidth and havent found a good solution

I have a website where I host several videos. At the moment I have a dedicated hosting with godaddy that is up to 500Gb per month of bandwidth. I have searched and found AKAMAI. unfortunately they are a little to expensive and to tell the truth they seem to work only with top companies because they never answered my emails.

I need a lot bandwidth, for resaonable prices. Anyone know any good solution ?

I need more than 1 terabyte, I need something more like 10 terabytes or even more. But it also needs to be a reliable host. Thats why I mentioned akamai, they seem to be working with the top guys, anyone have an opinion of them?

Apple uses them to host their stuff (just look at the URLs when you visit their trailers section), from the way the URLs look like its probably really expensive because i think they find where the user is and redirect them to the closest mirror

I got on the phone with akamai, their chepeast packages started at 1500 dollars. then for 3,000 dollars they offered something like 3 terabytes of bandwidth. But as you said, they are more than a simple webhost provider, they have a big infrastructure around the world so that users will always connect to the closest server plus they offer other tools etc.

Im looking for a really ROBUST solution, I guess if this takes off we will be willing to spend around 2000 dollars per month. but it needs to be RELIABLE.

Hey,

I've been using http://www.netsonic.net for the past few years, they're not the cheapest around but you get what you pay for and that is a quality and reliable service! If you send them a mail you can usually work out a custom deal.

And no I don't work for them, just think they're a great company!

Cheers.

Dany I resell from big Datacenters and can good deals on 100mbps unmetered servers which seems to be the best solution for you. Feel free to send me an email at sales@wenhostingkingdom.com and i'll get you a quote. It will be between $500-$1000 depending on your server specs.

http://www.elixant.com or http://www.elixant.co.uk I been happy with them for a while. They have an established repuation. Google Elixant and you will get a lot of good reviews. The uptime is amazing, and if the host fails to acheive their 99.7% uptime a full refund is given. Bandwidth is plenty and cPanel support.

I know you need a few terabytes of space, may I ask why so much? You can always upgrade if you need more with Elixant.
