How much is it worth...

How much is a small slice of internet space worth, where your domain can land, have a bit of drive space, and a lot of email space, and a whole lot of bandwidth?

Half my sites live on bandwidth, not of web content but email space.

I was wondering if anyone hs learned a rough rule of $ value to bandwidth, or $ value to disk space?

Disk space is premium by comparison, but bandwidth seems to be what sites live and die on.

So I was wondering if anyone had learned what either is worth? I try not to get into such basics, but I realized, maybe I'm leaving money on the table by not getting back into this field? I haven't been involved in hosting since "10 MB" websites were common.

    To ask what the value is, you have to provide some concrete numbers. A "slice" or "a whole lot of" means different things to different people and different types of hosting accounts.

    If you host on Amazon S3, the bandwidth is RIDICULOUSLY cheap. If you use the same bandwidth on a private server, it will be much, much higher.

    I think both is essential part of a website. web space and Bandwidths works parallel to run a successful website.

    Go to lowendbox.com. You will find the lowest priced hosting there. They are unmanaged hosting though, if you are familiar with it. You can use an amazon ses to send your emails.
