At Blacklab Hosting, you don't have to pay for extra bandwidth consumption and we set no particular limit.

Bandwidth is the amount of data that a website can output to visitors. The more data your website delivers, the more bandwidth your website uses and is measured in gigabytes a month. If you deliver 10,000 pages a day of 10 kb each, then your website will use about 3 gb per month. We know that most websites rarely use more than 2 gb of data transfer per month so consider 2 gb of data transfer per month to be an acceptable amount.

Sometime websites do go over that. At Blacklab Hosting we are quite flexible about this and usually do not charge for extra bandwidth unless the website is "abusing" our service's bandwidth. By "abusing" we refer to:

• Placing big files on the server for download such as images, games, programs, MP3s and so on;
• Turning websites into a storage site for other websites or turning it into a storage for personal backups or file distribution among other users.

If you do consume a lot of bandwidth, then Blacklab Hosting may do either of the following (at our discretion and/or whichever you choose). Either

• charge you £20 for each gigabyte of data transferred above our acceptable consumption, or
• ask you to advertise our service on your website (e.g."Hosted by Blacklab Hosting") in visible areas of your website.

So at Blacklab Hosting, you don't have to pay for extra bandwidth if you prefer not to.

We flexible about this and we'll do everything within our reach to not raise your monthly payment. If you you think you need a lot of bandwidth, let us know so that we can reach an agreement beneficial to both you and us.
