Judy:
We pay just about $155 CAD a year for multiple domain names and full hosting (Netfirms plan). I could install a "blog" platform onto my server space (if I wished to go that route), and a choice of e-Commerce platforms, too.
My allowable raster image storage limit is so enormous, I would probably never achieve the limit.
Are you storing full-RAW images on your site? Have you got e-Commerce installed? I hesitate storing full uncompressed imagery on our site.
Also, you may want to consider implementing something like a loss-less dynamic compression application on a hosted server plan (something like LizardTech MrSID Generation 4 with Express Server 9). MrSID is used almost explusively for serving massive terrabyte sized raster imagery from satellite sensors at 95% loss-less compression (hard to believe I know; t'was developed a Sandia National Labs, NM, and is now a civilian product). It could easily be used as a professional photography hyper-compression/uncompression solution in your own hosted server....something to consider.
