The monthly traffic characteristic, which is at times also referred to as bandwidth or info transfer, indicates the overall volume of data which is uploaded to your website hosting account and downloaded from it every month. Your site traffic is produced mainly by web site visits - whenever somebody comes across your web site, the webpages they view are downloaded from your website hosting server to his / her computer system or smartphone and they're displayed by the internet browser. What counts towards the website traffic produced is the size of these web pages, as a result the more site visitors you get for some period of time, the more website traffic will be generated. Along with the website visits, file uploads will also be counted towards the entire monthly transfer i.e. whenever you upload site content or other files using a file manager or an FTP program, they will also produce some site traffic. The counter resets on the first day of each and every month and it's not related to the date you have subscribed as well as the date you've renewed your website hosting package.
Monthly Traffic in Website Hosting
Our Linux website hosting plans were designed with the concept to handle the traffic produced by any kind of website that can run in such an account. In case you currently have one or a number of small or medium-sized sites, you'll not be limited by the monthly site traffic quota irrespective of what content you have - plain text or a lot of images, for example. The stats inside the hosting Control Panel will give you elaborate data about the site traffic generated by every single website plus the amount for the account in general. The figures are updated in real time and indicate both the everyday and the monthly usage, thus you'll know how much data is transferred to and from your hosting account anytime. The very first day of each month your counter is reset, but you'll be able to view the site traffic stats for the past months, which will inform you on how your sites perform.
Monthly Traffic in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server packages are intended to host a number of resource-demanding websites because they feature a great deal of processing power. Such web sites usually generate a lot of site traffic and for this reason we've decided not to limit this feature. Using a semi-dedicated server, you'll be able to have as many website visitors as you can get without having to worry that you may hit some restriction for the website traffic they can produce. For your convenience, you can keep track of what is going on in your account as we will supply monthly, daily and hourly figures for the web site traffic your web sites generate. Consequently, you will be informed on how they operate at any time. You'll even be able to observe which page or file has produced most of the traffic for any website hosted in your semi-dedicated server account.
Monthly Traffic in Dedicated Servers
Taking into consideration how powerful all of our Linux dedicated servers are, the data transfer that you'll get each month will be sufficient for any type of web site regardless of the number of its visitors, even if you provide file or image hosting. You will get an allowance of terabytes of site traffic each and every month and given that you will not share the server with others, that allowance will be supplied only for your websites and web apps. We'll inform you when you reach 90% of the allowance therefore you'll be able to react and either optimize your websites to lower the traffic they make, or extend the limit. It is very unlikely that you'll ever need more than what we'll provide you with, but we will not obstruct the development of your sites, that's why we leave the possibility to include more traffic open. The dedicated server packages include a control panel where you'll be able to see the amount of site traffic has been generated to date for the current month and the amount that is left until you get to the restriction. Considering the fact that these figures include software installations and updates, they're more precise than various hosting Control Panel stats which include just the traffic generated by websites.
