Here are the increases…

  • Brightbox 256: was 50GB now 100GB/month (100% more!)
  • Brightbox 512: was 75GB now 200GB/month (167% more!)
  • Brightbox 1GB: was 150GB now 400GB/month (167% more!)
  • Brightbox 2GB: was 250GB now 800GB/month (220% more!)

There are a few reasons for making these increases:

  1. Our bandwidth costs per customer have decreased as we’ve grown, due to economies of scale
  2. We’ve taken on a new bandwidth supplier for our new racks which has, again, provided significant cost savings (whilst providing increased network capacity and failover ability!)
  3. Previous bandwidth allowances didn’t grow inline with RAM, which we think they should (and now do) 

Of course, this applies to both new and existing customers. Enjoy!

This new box comes with 2GB of RAM and also has a whole dedicated CPU core at it’s disposal giving an additional performance advantage. The Brightbox 2048 is priced at £220 per month, with the usual discount for annual payments. Check out the full list of specs and how it compares up to our existing rails hosting products →

Also, today, we added *another* 50GB of bandwidth to the Brightbox 1024 product, now giving a total of 150GB/month.

So, a Brightbox 256 now comes with 50GB/month, 512 with 75GB/month and 1024 boxes come with 100GB/month.

Naturally, this applies to *all* customers.
