I visited NatNet, Jupiterhosting, ... but it seems like they offer only special deals, and don't think they are in my price class.

If the content of your site doesn't get changed very often, and there is no database involved, it could be an interesting option to get i.e. 4 x 1000 GB servers for ~$60 each and round robin them.

Gives you a combined burstability of 40 mbps (4x10) and 4000-4800 GB to use - theoretically. Realistically you use 3200 - 4000 GB as you do not want to be charged for overage and try to stay below the 1000/1200 GB per server. Once you aproach 80-90% of one server's BW allowance, you just add another server to your round robin.
