    Hey, I'm on free hosting. Someone was generous enough to offer me it, but last month I used about 10 gigs more than I was supposed to because I made the stupid mistake of uploading a live proxy design I made. Anyways, I felt really stupid once I noticed that my bandwidth peaked in the matter of a few hours. Usually, I'd never use more than a gig a month.

    Is there any way to use cPanel 10 to automatically redirect my traffic once I reach the quota? Let's say I get dugg, I'll be in big trouble then... How can I do this?


    BTW, I'm not sure if this is in the right category. I'm not even sure what apache is :p


    Please help :)



    EDIT: My site runs partially on Wordpress. If there's a WP plugin that can do that, it's cool too. But I'd prefer some cpanel trick

    If you have a reseller account with WHM access you can create a limit on the bandwidth on a site by site basis.

    Otherwise contact your host and have them set a bandwidth limit on your account.
