Bandwidth = Hits ???

Just a question ....

as of now, i am being offered 250 GB bandwidth per month...

How many hits or page views will that support..

Just a bit confused and could do with some gyann...

depends on the size of your site...

True that. You need to divide it by the average size of your web pages.
Example:
Average page size: 10KB
Total bandwidth available: 100,000KB
Page views supported: 100,000 / 10
= 100,00 page views.

(If only i worked this hard on my maths exam I won't have failed in it twice! :mrgreen)

250 GB would be more than enough for a medium sized site. My VBullettin site with over 100,000 page views uses around 500 GB per month.

On a shared host, if you come anywhere near this most probably you will be kicked out due to excessive CPU usage. Thats the catch, when they oversell everything else.

It depends on what type of site. If it's flash I think it would take up a bit more B/W
