Hi,

I stopped searching in Australia and looked over to the US, and am pretty
happy with experthost.com (2GB/50meg/20POP starting at US$15/m)... since
signing up, I changed over to a reseller account to run multiple domains for
clients, and am now paying around US$6.25/m per domain.

I know that additional bandwidth is available too.


The problem is that AU bandwidth is waaaay expensive.  A comparable plan to
the above on a reliable, customer service drive ISP in AU is more like
AU$50-150/month, and as you know, getting up near 5gb puts the price through
the roof.

Bandwidth is the US is soooo much cheaper.  Unless you have a specificly
focused group of Australian users, and are server a lot of large files, or
stuff that requires really short ping times (like gaming?), I'd recommend
looking overseas...  just ensure they have 24/7 support, otherwise you'll
have email/support delays and 3am phone calls :)
