My site is database-driven and uses 50 GB per month in transfer. Can I simply use a host with an unlimited transfer plan for $10 per month?

It won't work. Hosts are in business to make money and would lose money hosting your site. They have to pay for transfer to upstream providers themselves. Almost all hosts that have "unlimited" plans specify in their acceptable use policies that no site can use an "excessive" amount of resources. If you use too much disk space, bandwidth, or CPU time, these "unlimited" hosts will ask you to upgrade or leave. We don't engage in such deceptive marketing practices. If you buy a plan from us, you'll pay a fair price and be able to use all the bandwidth you contracted for.
