Monthly Bandwidth
The data transfer per month is typically called bandwidth. It is the amount of data transferred between your website and your visitors. A web site small and medium consume between 1 and 5GB of data transfer per month. Larger sites, commercial or well known often consume more than 5GB of monthly data and sometimes surpass the 100GB monthly traffic.
Before you decide on a web hosting plan, be sure to check :
- What is the monthly bandwidth limit?
- Will you be charged as the website exceeds its limit?
- Can you increase your monthly bandwidth limit?
Internet Connection Speed
Visitors to your website will connect frequently via 56K modems or ADSL modems but your web hosting provider should have a much faster connection. We are talking here of connections with speeds measured in megabits per second. The higher the speed of the connection of the host for your website, the better the performance for the visitors.
Choosing a web hosting plan does not depends only on the mentioned aspects. It also depends on your requirement, budget and future planning. If your requirement are less and if your website doesn’t require much security then a share hosting plan can do well for you. However, if you are planning to run a mission-critical website that requires lots of security and privacy or a huge traffic website then a UK Dedicated Server would be the right choice for you.
