A quick question on Web hosting!?

when it says



600GB disk space that means 600,000mb right?



and when it says



6000GB bandwidth that means 6,000,000mb right?



and isn%26#039;t 1,000,000=1000gigs which is 1 terabyte right? so are you getting 6 terabytes bandwidth? or did i miss -calculate something?

No, there should be a place where they tell you how much monthly bandwidth you%26#039;re going to be allowed.



Just look at this page, it%26#039;ll clear it up

A quick question on Web hosting!?



Perhaps we need to look at the meaning of these two words.



1) Disk-space is the amount of space that your web host will allow you to use and unfortunately there are limits attached to it. The more you pay the larger the disk space you will have. Take it like a storage room, the more space you lease the more you will pay and vice-versa.



2) Bandwidth on the other hand simply means the amount of data that you are allowed by your hosting company to transfer. The more visitors your site receives the more the amount of bandwidth you will need in order to comfortably meet the needs of your visitors. This is in turn affected by the speed level which in turn can be affected by the type of data being transferred like video and pictures.
