Bandwidth

Bandwidth is the amount of data, measured in Megabytes per month that clients may transfer due to any traffic originating from or going to their website. A large part of this traffic is web traffic (website visitors) but can also be FTP (file uploads), Anonymous FTP (file downloads), and even E-mail services. Again, the more bandwidth allowed, the better!

As much as you need

Those on the Gold and Platinum hosting services are allowed to use as much bandwidth as needed per month as long as their content is in accordance with our Acceptable Uses Policy. In short, clients can use an unlimited amount of bandwidth.

How can we offer unlimited bandwidth?

This is a common concern that we publicly address. While we, and anyone else for that matter, has a limited amount of bandwidth, it is important that to  have access to more when needed. First, our available bandwidth can be increased with a simple telephone call, our policy is for our 95th percentile of bandwidth consumption to never exceed 70% utilisation; when this happens, we upgrade our bandwidth. Secondly, with 3 diverse DS-3 lines from different carriers, bandwidth is not only available when needed, but from different sources. Finally, it is statistics which always prevail and show that while some clients will end up consuming more than their monthly fee worth of bandwidth every month (some clients who take advantage of the unlimited bandwidth feature push out in excess of 100 Gigabytes of data month after month), an overwhelming majority of clients do not. Our current capacity is for up to 695 Megabytes of data, well over the bandwidth needed to serve Yahoo!'s 12 million plus visitors every day, or Microsoft's website. While we have this much bandwidth available, we are not using anywhere near this bandwidth. Also in the future, bandwidth will continue to get cheaper which works to our advantage.

What restrictions are there on the other packages?

On both the Bronze and Silver service we operate a limited bandwidth policy. This means you can use up to 50Mb a month but after that you may be asked to transfer to the Gold service or a surcharge for additional bandwidth will be made at a rate of £1 for each additional Mb of bandwidth used each month. The Virtual Server is designed for multiple site hosting so we give you an allocation of 1Gb a month and then charge just 5p/Mb thereafter.
