Some customers wonder why large (and less large) hosts are able to offer large hosting packages often for prices below our standard packages. You will recognize these packages at the very large diskspace they will offer you i.e. you may find those offering 200GB or even the more rediculous unlimited.
Rest assured that our pricing is based on non-oversold services, and by keeping this healthy business plan we make sure that our servers will stay and function the way you expect from us, up and running at lighting fast speeds.
These providers oversell the capacity because they know you are not going to use 200GB of diskspace or even more, nor use the resources of the machine it would take to host such a large website. Like the airliner industry which oversells seats, these companies do oversell the seats for your data, leaving you with a potential problem when a user decides to indeed load 200gb on the site or starts to use more resources as the servre actually can allocate.
In short 040 Hosting does not oversell and chooses to offer clients a honest hosting environment for a fair price for you as customer and us as your supplier.
