Most hosting providers also limit the amount of Bandwidth your site is allowed to use in a month, and charge extra if you go over that limit, usually in the region of 5p/megabyte that is over the imposed limit, and that could get expensive. Bandwidth is the total size, usually expressed in gigabytes, of the data being read from and written to your website. So if the size of a page is 20k and it also contains 8 graphics of 10k each then when someone reads that page they use up 100k of your bandwidth. So how big are your pages going to be, how large are your images going to be, how many visitors will you get and how many pages will each visitor view. How much Bandwidth a month do you need ? Tricky isn't it.

Our solution is to not impose a fixed bandwidth limit, use what you like. With all that unlimited disk space you may need it. Some sites don't use much, some use a lot, so we treat the available bandwidth as a pool available to everyone. This is possible as a very large ratios of bandwidth per customer is maintained, but as the vast majority of sites will only use a fraction of the bandwidth available it leaves large amounts in reserve for busier sites. It will only become a problem if a site is using so much bandwidth that it starts to effect other sites. However, if this point is ever reached then the site in question would have gone well over the limit imposed by most other hosting providers and would have knocked up a large bill for excess bandwidth usage.
