    I am planning on building a site similar to Squidoo and I am wondering if anyone has a rough idea of how many GB of space/bandwidth I should be looking for.

    Thanks!

    For the beginning stage,don't worry about the bandwidth coz your new site rarely can used up 100GB bandwidth per month.
    You can use shared hosting first and then switch it to dedicated server when you have a lot of traffic.

    Yeah you're sort of putting the cart before the horse.

    Bandwidth is not a concern when you are just starting out.

    Oh I know, I just want to be prepared so I don't get hit with extra charges. I know we are talking about months are years in advance, but I like to have some idea and some preparation.

    Squidoo is pretty popular to compare with. You can always upgrade if needed (I'm sure they have)
