Monthly data transfer (AKA bandwidth usage) refers to how much data/information is sent to or received from your hosting account on the server over a period of one month. Every time someone views your web page all of the data (html code, text, graphics, etc.) incorporated within the page must be transferred from the web server, across the Internet, and onto the visitor's computer where it is viewed via a web browser. As a result, the amount of data transfer a hosting customer uses is directly related to the number of visitors to their site, multiplied by the size of their web pages, including any graphics displayed within. |
