Understanding Disk Space and Bandwidth Limits
At EasyHost, it’s important to understand the resources your website uses. Two of the most common metrics are disk space and bandwidth. Knowing what these mean helps you avoid issues like your website slowing down or exceeding limits.
Why Disk Space and Bandwidth Matter
- Disk Space: Limits how many files and data your website can store. Exceeding it can prevent new uploads or website updates.
- Bandwidth: Measures data sent to visitors. Exceeding it can slow down your site or trigger temporary suspension.
