How Much Bandwith

    Firstly, i'm not sure where this should go, so if its in the wrong place please move it.

    I currently run an arcade site. I hav hosting that allows me to use 3gb of bandwith per month. The arcade site is only small but the bandwith is increasing quite quickly. My question is basically, how much bandwith do I really need per month to run a large arcade site. The site is going to get more traffic as my site is moving quicly up googles rankings.

    Anyone know how much bandwith, roughly, I would need per month, or is 3gb enough?

    Thanks

    My opinion just to be sure 10gb would be needed.

    I would say 50-100 depending on how much it is used.

    How much are you using now, and with how much traffic? Should be as easy as interpolating to your expected traffic.

    Thanks for all the help. To people posting their hosting plans, i'd much rather upgrade my hosting plan on my current host than buy hosting with another company.
    The post was simply asking people how much bandwith an arcade site would need/use per month

    You can always upgrade when you need to - I'd recommend you upgrade to higher plan when you reach 80% of the current plan limit

    Don't just jump and take it step by step so you don't pay for something you don't really use ;)

    Good luck :)
