Hosting, am I getting a good deal?

I have Blackwire hosting as my hosting provider.

I pay 19.95 / monthly for:
40Gig storage
1.5 terrabyte monthly bandwith
10 domains + 30 scripts

Is this a good deal or are there better hosting providers out there,
I´ve had some problems with some of the scripts and they aren´t the fastest in solving problems so I thought I should check your opinions here.

Sincerely
Karl

    When it comes to hosting, bandwidth and disk space mean very little.

    Depends more on the resources you are allowed to use and the server configuration, sql limits, support, etc.

    A good guage is to find out how many other domains are hosted on the same ip.

    Usually will be a hundred or so, but if it is in the range of several hundred, you are being ripped off.

    Basic Hostgator and others beat that hands down for about $10 per month.(600gig-6TB)

    Hope that helps!

    It's not too bad compared to some I have seen.

    I still feel Hostgator offers some of the best options around but it all balances out in the end.

    Hostgator offers unlimited domains on your account for as little as $7.95 a month and the options scale from there. I have posted on Hostgator a few times in the past, not because I am an affiliate (which I am) but because I have a lot of servers with them for smaller clients and I also have 20+ dedicated servers from the same company they use for their datacenter so I know they are on a stable and sound network.

    Just my 2c...
