I'm buying some space from a hosting company. One option says bandwidth of 15 GB, the other option says 25 GB?

Question

Does it mean that when internet users are viewing my site, the option with 25 GB will be loaded faster? Speed is my concern. Is 25 GB is a lot faster than 15 GB?

Answer 1

No, bandwidth is the amount of transfer. Like if your page is 200 KB, and if each visitor to your site visits 5 pages on average, it's 1 MB of bandwidth. So, if you have 25 GB (25000 MB) of bandwidth it would be enough for 25000 visits per month.

It's rare for a host to offer just 25 GB of bandwidth but it's probably OK if the price is less than $3/month. If it's more, check one of these hosts:

1. The cheapest option I know is:

http://www.hosttell.com/one/

$3.75/month (all included, 1 domain name, 3 GB of disk space, unlimited bandwidth) but they don't offer that much disk space (3 GB) and options.

2. Godaddy has a couple of nice plans:

http://www.hosttell.com/godaddy/

3. For $5.78/month I recommend Dreamhost http://www.dreamhost.com/hosting.html

Their standard price is $119.40/year ($9.95/month if you pay yearly) but they currently have a promotion. You can use the promo code PLUS at sign up page and get the $50 discount + 2 Free domain names. This way you get them for $69.40/year ($5.78/month). You can use their huge Disk Space and host unlimited number of sites on a single plan.

Disk space: 500 GB

Bandwidth: 5000 GB

2 Free domain names

Price: $5.78/month ($69.40/year)

Answer 2
