Hi,

To anyone who runs a dedicated server/s for their business I have a question.

If you have been with the same host for a long period of time....

Does your host offer a reduction in bills or do you chase him for one and get it when considering hardware is cheaper and bandwidth is cheaper from when you first signed on the dotted line with them.

Say you signed up to a plan in 2003, do you expect to be paying the same in 2007 and if so why?

If not how did you cut your bill?

Keep an eye on their B/W pricing and offers and negotiate to suit. Business is business.

Very true - You'll often find them advertising "specials" etc way under what you are paying -
