The monthly traffic function is sometimes known as data transfer or bandwidth as well, yet all of these terms refer to the very same thing - what amount of info can be transferred to and from a shared web hosting account. The website traffic can be produced in two ways, the more obvious one being website visits. If somebody loads your website, their Internet browser requests and downloads the pages from the web hosting server and then displays them on their end. The more visitors you have, the more outgoing traffic is produced from your hosting account. Due to the fact that this feature contains the entire website traffic, not just the website visits, you should not forget that inward traffic is measured as well. This means that website content along with other files that you upload to your account via a file manager or an FTP application are measured towards your account allowance. The transfer is typically tracked on a monthly basis and the counter resets on the first day of each month regardless of your actual signup date.
Monthly Traffic in Shared Web Hosting
All of our shared web hosting are designed with the idea to take care of the site traffic made by any type of website that can run in such an account. If you currently have one or several small or medium-sized websites, you will not be limited by the monthly website traffic quota irrespective of what content you may have - plain text or numerous images, for instance. The stats inside the hosting Control Panel gives you elaborate data about the website traffic produced by each and every site plus the amount for your account in general. The amounts are updated live and display both the daily and the monthly usage, which means that you will be aware of how much data is transferred to and from your web hosting account anytime. The very first day of every month your counter is reset, but you'll still be able to see the website traffic stats for the previous months, that will inform you on how your web sites perform.
Monthly Traffic in Semi-dedicated Servers
Since our semi-dedicated servers are pretty powerful, we've made the decision not to set any limit for the monthly website traffic that an account can produce. It is our understanding that if you get a website hosting plan that comes with a great deal of processing power, your web sites will most likely have many visitors and since each visitor generates a part of the site traffic, one can end up getting inaccessible sites in case there is a cap for this characteristic. With truly unrestricted traffic, you will be sure this won't happen. For your benefit, you will be able to monitor the content being downloaded as well as the site traffic that is generated for each domain with monthly, daily and hourly stats that will inform you on how popular your sites are. You will be able to even view individual web pages and files which have produced most of the web site traffic in the semi-dedicated account.
Monthly Traffic in VPS Servers
The monthly site traffic allowance that you receive with our VPS servers is enough for any type of website and it is proportionate to all the rest of the system resources that come with every package. Using a more powerful server, you'll be able to manage a variety of web sites or several really popular websites, thus the site visitors allocation for the superior packages is also higher. In case you select a low-end VPS plan, you are able to update anytime with just a few mouse-clicks through your billing Control Panel and then the extra resources will be added to your present account, along with the increased traffic allowance. All the VPS accounts feature a server administration panel where you have the option to keep track of the used and remaining traffic for the current month in addition to all the other resources. Furthermore, we send announcements once you reach 90% of your limit, so that you'll have enough time to react and update if you find it necessary.
Monthly Traffic in Dedicated Servers
With a dedicated server, you'll have a very powerful website hosting tool at your disposal and the site traffic allowance you will get suits the rest of the features. Your server will be able to generate terabytes of website traffic each month, so whatever the type or amount of web sites that you host, you'll never have to worry for them being not available due to insufficient website traffic. To be on the safe side though, we will give you the opportunity to update this feature if required. We'll notify you well ahead of time if you get close to the restriction, so you'll have the time to upgrade or lower the site traffic by optimizing your content avoiding any interruption of the work of your web sites. You can view the consumed and remaining website traffic for the present month via the control panel that we provide. The info there features all the incoming as well as all the outgoing transfers, which includes software setups and / or updates. In contrast, a hosting Control Panel offers more detailed data, however only for the website traffic to and from a hosting account, not the server as a whole.
