Yeah, bandwidth became an issue on my old site as well. The site was getting 10,000 hits per day, and the Host was at best incompetent, and at worst thieves. The new owner has apparently sprung for a dedicated server, but if their network has problems, the dedicated server will do squat. They have been having problems recently, 'Access Denied' messages, 'Can't find server 'xxxxxxx.com' messages. So, believe me, I know what a hassle it can be to keep a site like this up and running smoothly, and that doesn't even take into account the personality conflicts that can take place.
BTW, I experienced a few 'can't find server barrowdowns.com' messages today.
I don't know what your bandwidth/storage requirements are, but if I could be of service to the Powers-That-Be here, I would be happy to share any wisdom I gleaned from running a fairly large site. Please do not hesitate to send me a private message.
Regards,
Glen(ethor)
