How much are your running costs?

#1 Postby superbia » Aug 29, 2012 10:33 pm

It looks to me that one needs to spend at least $300-$600/PM on servers alone and once things pick up, it can be as much as $2000/PM
This plus the affiliate payouts total may be about 5k/Moth
Am I right or my calculation is way over the top?

I'm currently at $600/m with 140k files doing about 6TB a day.

It works out to 20% of my earnings.

Don't you use a firewall or something? How are you able to keep costs so low? not using 1GBPS connection?
