I would like to move my site from tripod.com to a paid host.

Currently I have 30MB of material, will probably reach a max limit of 100MB within a year or so. Keep in mind the majority of this is photographs so it might eat a fair bit of bandwidth.

I recieve around 1000 hits per week which will increase dramatically (to around 5000 hits per week) within a few months due to the nature of my site.

Domain name is not needed (I am fine with a subdomain), no POP email, no mailing lists, no real audio/video servers, no PHP, no CGI.

I am Canadian so I am a bit concerned on American prices (what's cheap in the US costs me twice as much here!) and I do NOT want to use credit cards. Preferebly under $10 American, or $15 Canadian.

My site is currently at http://stacyfans---------- (look in the photo section, over 700 pics) if that could better estimate my bandwidth needs (I seriously have no clue on bandwidth, what I need)

NOTE- I do not want any brand new hosts, I would like to use a host with a GOOD proven track record (regarding support, company history) and very, very stable. I am sick of having my sites disappear like on stas.net

Id recommend tera-byte (http://www.tera-byte.com) .... canadian company and with 700 pictures your going to be pushing some serious bandwidth.

They have a 20gb a month account for under $10 or if u pay yearly its $99.
