Bandwidth
Bandwidth refers to the flow of data from your website. It is measured in GB (GigaBytes), and is affected by: - The number of people visiting your website (its popularity).
- And, the disk space occupied by your website, or its size. Media files, such as large images, audio, and video contribute heavily to the space occupied by your site. Conversely, the number of web pages that you have does not contribute heavily.
Our hosting plans include 10 ($9.95 USD/month) to 40 ($39.95 USD/month) GB of bandwidth per month, plenty for virtually all applications.
As a general rule of thumb, 10 GB of bandwidth per month is plenty for most business web sites. Sites receiving a lot of traffic (visitors) and/or with a lot of media (audio and video) may require 20-40 GB.
It is important to note that web hosts advertising unlimited bandwidth are typically not reputable as, quite simply, the entire Internet community, certainly including the web hosts, is limited itself in its bandwidth.
However, LFC Hosting's additional bandwidth fees are well below those of competing business hosts. Furthermore, at LFC, unlike many competing services, we do not restrict the number of pages that your website can have, or the number of visitors to your website. In accordance with our no hidden fees policy, this prevents additional costs associated with the growth of your site and business.
It is also important to note that your web site will still function properly if you exceed this allocation; however, you will be billed for the additional resource usage. Feel free to contact us for a custom quote if you anticipate requiring a higher quota.
Finally, LFC Hosting provides the unique ability to monitor your bandwidth usage up-to-the-minute through the industry-leading LFC Control Panel. Resellers even have the ability to set automatic notifications when their resold clients have exceeded a certain quota.
