Last month I used up 6+ GB with average of 500 hits but I’m on an unlimited bandwidth… curious tuloy ako what’s wrong with unlimited…

calvin: ahh so normal lang pala bandwidth na nakukuha ko. i think it’s because everybody wants to be on unlimited kaya mas maraming nagshashare ng server kaya baka mas prone to slowing down. hehe hula ko lang.

I got the cheapest plan from ploghost which is plan 75 hehehe, that’s 75 MB webspace and 2,000 MB bandwidth.

calvin: hehe kulang sa akin 2000MB per month.

Mine is hosted by blogger and it’s free so I am not actually looking at how much bandwidth I consume. Are you planning to move to another host? are you open to shared hosting? Meron ako alam, pinoy ito : http://www.adamoshost.com/
actually ako ang hahawak ng adminCP nyan kasi friend ko yung may ari.

calvin: naka-shared hosting na ako. nagiisip ako kung lilipat pa, hirap kasi maglipat eh. friend ko may-ari ng ploghost pero bumabagsak minsan nameserver.

A rough estimation… 1000 unique visitors = 1GB bandwidth.

Imagine your blog being featured on some popular sites somehow, with thousands of visitors visiting your site out of a sudden… your account could be suspended in no time.

Get a package that can handle at least 5x your normal requirement. Forget about unlimited bandwidth providers… quite often those companies are the lousiest one.

calvin: hmm 1GB in just one day? or is that for one month? i’m only averaging about 400 visitors per day. what’s wrong with unlimited bandwidth? everybody’s hogging the same server? thanks for the comment man! appreciate it!
