There is a big difference between spending 200.000+ and 200 per year Dave.
If you say suppliers of web development services got a bad name because CT cannot give them the service they require for that amount of money, I say "too bad", they asked for it (if you meant it that way). Leave it up to companies who really know how to deal with professional hosting activities, agreements, contracts, risk management and consultancy. There are plenty, who do know how to handle commercial hosting and do not look at only the price tag. And they have very reasonable pricing. Every company, going to the web, doing web marketing, spending salaries on people managing the websites, paying for search engine ranking, creation of the front-end, and end up making the choice to select the foundation of their web activities, the hosting company, on a cheap ass hosting agreement are shooting themselves in the feet. Don't expect a Mercedes if you paid for a Ford, that's all I am trying to communicate. If you want the leather package (service contract), buy it and sign that contract which enables you to prevent any brand damage to the company. If the company finds your prices to high despite you arguments of higher service level, guarantees, etc , fine, let him search the appropriate hosting and let go of the risk. If you want quality, expect to pay for it.
