The monthly traffic feature, that is at times also called bandwidth or data transfer, indicates the full volume of information that is uploaded to your shared web hosting account and downloaded from it each month. The traffic is generated predominantly by site visits - each time somebody goes to your web site, the web pages they see are downloaded from the website hosting server to his or her computer system or mobile device and they are shown by the browser. What counts for the website traffic generated is the overall size of these pages, hence the more site visitors you get for a given period of time, the more website traffic will be produced. In addition to the website visits, file uploads are also counted towards the entire monthly transfer i.e. every time you upload site content as well as other files with a file manager or an FTP program, they will also generate some traffic. The counter resets on the first day of each month and it is not related to the date you've subscribed and the date you've renewed your hosting plan.
Monthly Traffic in Shared Web Hosting
All of our Linux shared web hosting packages are appropriate for any small-scale to medium-sized website or even a larger variety of sites. Considering that you can host many domain names using just a single account, we have designed the packages in such a way so as to provide you with all the attributes you may need. Regardless if you run a private portfolio website or an eCommerce web site, our monthly site traffic allowance that your website may use won't be a problem. Thus, you'll have the option to extend your online presence and obtain lots of new site visitors without worrying about getting to some cap. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel gives you elaborate info about the traffic usage to and from your account, that will allow you to control all your sites and the account more effectively. You can check hourly, daily and monthly stats, the site traffic produced by each individual domain and by the account as a whole, the most often downloaded files, etcetera.
Monthly Traffic in Semi-dedicated Hosting
Since our semi-dedicated hosting are quite powerful, we have decided not to put a limit for the monthly site traffic that an account can produce. We consider that if you need a hosting package that features a lot of processing power, your websites will most probably have many visitors and as every single visitor produces certain site traffic, you could end up getting unavailable sites in case there was any restriction for this particular feature. With truly unlimited site traffic, you can be sure this won't happen. For your benefit, you can keep track of the content being downloaded as well as the traffic that is generated for each domain with hourly, daily and monthly statistics that will give you an idea how popular your sites are. You'll be able to even see particular web pages and files which have generated most of the site traffic in your semi-dedicated account.
Monthly Traffic in VPS Hosting
The monthly website traffic allowance for our Linux VPS hosting is proportional to the other server’s resources. If you purchase a more powerful server, it's likely that you'll host a popular web site or even several web sites, so you'll have more visitors. By reason of this, the greater plan you obtain, the greater monthly website traffic quota you'll get. We'll will tell you whenever you get to 90% of the amount, so you will have enough time to take action and either improve your plan or optimize your sites and decrease the site traffic that they generate before the counter resets the next month. When you decide to update, this can be done through the billing Control Panel and with no more than a few mouse-clicks. In addition, you'll be able to keep track of the amount of website traffic your server has already generated and how much is left before you reach your monthly limit. This information is available in the VPS management panel where you'll also be able to restart your server and view the use of all other system resources such as hard disk storage, CPU load or physical memory usage.
Monthly Traffic in Dedicated Web Hosting
Taking into consideration how powerful all of our Linux dedicated web hosting are, the data transfer that you'll receive every single month will be sufficient for any kind of website regardless of the number of its visitors, even if you offer image or file hosting. You will get a quota of terabytes of site traffic each month and because you won't share the server with others, that quota will be provided only for your sites and web apps. We will notify you as soon as you reach 90% of the quota therefore you can react and either optimize your websites to lower the website traffic they generate, or extend the limit. It's very unlikely that you will ever need more than what we'll offer you, yet we will not restrict the development of your websites, so we leave the chance to include extra site traffic open. The dedicated server packages include a management panel where you can see how much traffic has been generated to date for the current month and what amount is left until you get to the restriction. Considering the fact that these figures include software installations as well as any updates, they're more precise than numerous hosting Control Panel statistics which include only the site traffic generated by websites.
