I'm confused a bit here...are you speaking of TOTAL usage? Mb/sec usage?
Mb/min or day? We don't charge like this at all, I think it's just
against our religion :) I think when a customer pays for a website, that's
enough right there, at least on our system. But then again, our prices
aren't the slimmest in the web hosting industry. But it becomes a real
problem to charge for bandwidth on a web site, because everytime they add
something to their site, they get charged an additional amount, which, to
me, defeats the purpose of paying someone to host the site to begin with.
If I was charged for bandwidth, I would want it to:

1. Be completely based on the bandwidth, no monthly service charge
whatsoever.
OR
2. Not be charged for bandwidth at all. If the site takes up an excessive
chunk, then that should be dealt with in another manner.

Just my two cents....
