The pay what you use is convenient or not. I'm talking about small sites.

The concept won't work for large sites because bandwidth buying en masse is much cheaper than buying by the Gig. Like with some companies such as tera-byte, you get 20GB for 9.25/month. So for large bandwidth sites, this tactic won't work well.

Not really some hosts charge very little for overusage. If a site uses 50gig a month, and you buy it in bulk the host can usually offer a heavily discounted rate as we would.

If they're using 10000 GB a month, they obviously should not be on shared hosting.

Yes, but by that time the site is big enough such that the cashflow is enough to buy dedicated servers-servers in which THEY have the power to change whatever they want to as by their preferences, and it will not affect other users on the system...because they are the only ones on it! If you offered dedicated servers, then this idea would work very well.
