When any data is uploaded to a website hosting account or downloaded from it, some traffic is produced and this is a characteristic that each and every hosting plan includes. It's also one of the attributes you should check, as what amount of website traffic allowance you'll need will depend on the things you need the account for. The traffic is mainly generated by downloads and this includes web site visits. Basically, every time someone goes to your website, the webpages are downloaded from the server on their computer and they are then displayed by their internet browser. It is also important to know that uploads matter too, and any time you back up bigger files from your pc to the server, some web site traffic will be generated as well. Different companies may have different names for this particular feature, such as traffic, bandwidth, data transfer, yet they all apply to the same thing - the amount of incoming & outgoing information generated for a particular period of time.

Monthly Traffic in Website Hosting

All our Linux website hosting packages were designed with the idea to handle the traffic made by any site that can exist in such an account. If you own one or multiple small or medium-sized sites, you will not be limited by the monthly website traffic quota regardless of what content you may have - plain text or perhaps lots of images, for instance. The statistics inside the hosting Control Panel will provide you with detailed info about the website traffic produced by each site as well as the total amount for your account as a whole. The amounts are updated in real time and indicate both the daily and the monthly usage, thus you'll be aware of how much info is transferred to and from the website hosting account anytime. The very first day of each and every month the counter is reset, but you will still be able to view the web site traffic statistics for the previous months, which will show you how your sites perform.
