D isk Storage and Traffic How much disk storage space do I need? We allocate generous amounts of disk storage space for your use. To give you an idea of how much space you will need, you can store over 300 average web pages (graphics and all) within 10 MB. Obviously sites utilizing databases and the like will require more space. How much traffic (data transfer) will I get each month? In short, lots! All Optimate Web Hosting accounts come with 20 Gigabytes of traffic each month. This allows you to have complete peace of mind even if your website becomes very successful indeed. Based on an average webpage, such as this one (including all images and content), weighing in around 30 kilobytes, that's between 0.5 and 1 million hits per month! If I exceed my traffic limit, how much will the excess traffic cost me? In the extremely rare event that you exceed the 20 Gigabyte of traffic that comes with your account each month, you will be charged $5.50 for each extra 100 MB of traffic (or part thereof).
