What is bandwidth or transfer or a traffic allowance?
When you host your website, it uses resources every time someone visits your site. The terms bandwidth, transfer, and traffic allowance are often used interchangeably to refer to the amount of data that can be carried from one point to another in a given time period. In other words, if your hosting company doesn’t give you enough bandwidth, and you have a ton of people visit your site, your site may become unavailable. Many small websites may use only 200 or so megabytes of space. Our standard hosting package is very generous, and it allows up to 50,000 megabytes of disk space.
