On topic: Bandwidth is basically people using the site and how much you've put on it. For example, if you upload a 6MB song to your site. That will add 6MB to the bandwidth, if three people then go on your website and download the song, that will add 18MB (3X6MB) to your bandwidth. Overall you would of then used 24MB.

Same goes for web pages, if you have a homepage which takes up 1MB, and 600 people access your homepage, it will add 600MB to the bandwidth. It depends on how many visitors you get and the size of the content they download, whether that be web pages, images or music. Each month it'll be reset and if you go over it you'll presumably have to pay more or be cut off seeing as you'll be a strain on the servers internet, using a lot of it up.

Looks like your site doesn't fit for your hosting either, 30mb is nothing.

I don't even have a site and I am using 100mb+

Looks like you need much more space for what you need really. I don't even have a proper site but use it for many files:

Only for a few websites and that includes the OS as well!

Tom (Recursion) and Matt, you're wasting money on bandwidth you don't use.

Mickword, depending on what you're hosting, 30MB is either enough or sod all. I'm guessing not enough for you.

£2.50 a month for my hosting, I use it for e-mail and hosting files for me and other people, it's fair nuff tbh.

Thanks guys, since my mate owns a hosting website, he gives me free hosting, and tbh I was planning to get a bigger one like matts, because this site is my fansite, its a archive btw. And I was selling this layout for 25 pound and the person scammed me so I was really angry... so I didn't buy it off him. Besides I will tell him to take it down or something, wonder what I can threaten him with... soz back on topic yeah can't buy it lol.

At the risk of losing tons of geek cred (do I have any anyway? idk :P) what were those cool things you guys posted in the code boxes? I recognise it as some sort of terminal text but I don't know anything past that :P

Just a command that displays disk usage on most unix/unix compatible systems.

Thank God he asked before I did.

BTW how long does it take for a upgrade to take, I got a email from my host and he said he updated it, how long will it take.
