suggestions on ebay auctions

ypn · 07-23-2003, 07:45 AM

Hello thanks for looking.
I'm looking for suggestions on what else I could possibly offer to give an even better deal on hosting. I've been looking for the best deals, my ebay auction is here. I'm offering now 1 gig space/5gigs bandwidth, free premium template, free 10,000 hits for $7.77/month but I'm still not getting any purchases.

I'm relatively new to hosting but have 17 clients, I believe my server is just as good as anyone else yet I know alot of hosts sell for dirt cheap....it makes it hard to convince people those hosts are just overloading slow servers....please give me some helpful suggestions!
thanks

Well, thats a pretty good deal but in terms of hosting I can get double what your offering for about 2/3's the cost and still make %50 profit as a server host so what company are you hosting your server with?

Hey

I have 2 dedicated servers on rackshack.net, $139/month each so I don't really see how I can lower the costs and still break even. $7.77/month X 100 clients is only $770/month minus all the costs (139x2) ($5x100-for templates) ($10x100-for hits). I must be doing something wrong if you think you can beat that deal

given that formula (which is what i am offering in the auction the costs for that month would be $1327 + whatever ebay charges, lets just round it off to $1350. I'll be losing $580 the first month, the 2nd month assuming they all stay clients I would make $492 and would therefore come close to breaking even.
