You have a website designed or want to design a website and need to know the domain names and bandwidth required for your website. I'll try to clear some doubts about the web space and data transfer necessary to help you choose an appropriate plan of accommodation. First, let's be clear on the web space. What is a web space or web space? In simple terms, it is the repository of memory on a web server that serves the Web page requests from client software such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Opera browsers, etc.. Web space can be used to host websites, email hosting, file storage, etc.
There are hosting plans starting from a few megabytes (MB) to several gigabytes (GB) depend on hosting companies. First, determine the actual size of your website. The size depends on its website HTML files, image files, audio and other media files that are needed for your website. A small site of about 5 pages with about 10 images can be less than 200 kilobytes (KB) if the site is coded efficiently. For your information 8 bits 1 Byte, 1024 Byte 1 kilobyte, 1024 Kilobyte 1 Megabyte, 1024 Megabyte 1 Gigabyte 1024 Gigabyte 1 Terabyte (TB). The information is stored in a digital format with many 0 and 1. 0 or 1 is considered a little.
Are you confused to choose the hosting plans that some hosting companies offer a few megabytes of space and others do in many GB? It may be a marketing gimmick to deliver a huge space for users than most sites of small and medium sized fit in a few MB. However, it is a necessity for many large sites make more room for its rich content of images, audio, video and other advanced media requirements. It is important to measure the size of the site and estimate the growth of your site. Only the web space will not say anything about the quality of accommodation and it is crucial to look at the reputation of the company hosting features offered, support services, etc. The key is to choose a company accommodation that meets the necessary characteristics and host web space which is appropriate for the site.
Let's take a look at the bandwidth. Bandwidth is the amount of data transferred to and from a Web server. When a Web page is displayed this means that some data were downloaded from the server. Also read emails, send emails, access ftp accounts, etc. after the transfer of data. Usually, it comes with the hosting plan that some amount of data transfer per month. For example: 1 GB of web space and 10GB bandwidth.
Bandwidth required is based on the content provided by the site. The text takes the least space, the images take more space than text, audio files are larger than the image files and video files become very rich space. If a site is 200 KB and each visitor visiting all the pages of 500 MB of data transfer per month can accommodate 2,500 visitors per month.
