Dexter,

If you are going to make free galleries, I think its best for you to go with average billing method and not 95%. Although for some webmasters 95% billing makes more sense.

If you are looking for a hosting company that provides that option I recommend the NEW http://www.isprime.com – New look with the same great service  or hit me on icq 300950 

First of all you should look for a hosting company taking $1-2 / GB. Then you should concentrate about reducing the size of your gallery front page (with the thumbs). Try using sponsors that allow you to hotlink there banners or use text links. It really does not change much on your bandwidth bill if your full sized images (the ones you link from your thumbs) are 15k or 100k, because most people do not rip all your pics. like a few years ago. Most people only look at your front page. Better pictures will get you higher on most TGPs; shitty 15k pics probably wont get you listed. I think about 50k for a pic. is fine.

thank you guys, can somebody write me his ratio of bandwidth price and money you earn if you are using paid hosting for galleries and you are listed for example on worldsex?

thanx dexter

Captain u r right. We are using ISPRIME from last 3 months. We put 3 website and 1 site for data bcz when our data is on freeserver all traffic lost and also we didnt making enough but when we use paid host our earning increase and didnt lose traffic.
Their price is also cheap and server is also good and speedy.

As we got over 150K hits on our main site www.desipapa.com (http://www.desipapa.com) w are using over 200GB at very low price from ISPRIME.COM

For about 10k hits to your gallery you will probably use 1GB of traffic, provided your images are well compressed. Sometimes more, sometimes less but I think that's a good average.
To be very pessimistic, let's say you get one sale per 100k to your gallery, making you $30.
For this sale you have used 10GB of traffic(which would total to $9 if you use our TGP Special (http://www.321host-it.com/spnov01.html)).
I do, however, think that you can make more than 1 sale every 100k. For instance, if you submit a gallery to thehun you get about 100k in total and you make way more than 1 sale, if you know what you're doing.

I hope this has helped you a little.
