    Im using blogger right now for my blog, i've plan to move to BlueHost, but i need some help or suggestion, my blog daily traffic is 3000visitors and Double page views, and bluehost offering 600gb space(enough for me) and 6000gb bandwidth. I want to know is 6000gb bandwidth is good for my blog or beacuse of lots of users bluehost servers can run in good time loading of my website?

    Thanks:)

    6000GB of bandwidth is an absolute overkill. Your real limitation is going to be the amount of CPU and memory your site uses. Most hosts this is either 10-20% of total for x amount of minutes or something along the lines of if it's affecting other users you may be suspended.

    In your case I doubt you're going to have any issues with hitting the CPU limits. Your only problem may be if other users are hurting the server performance.

    6000 GB bandwidth is a lot ...

    a blog usually requires 1-5GB bandwidth per month..
    dont worry ;)

    Yeah I'd say you'd be just fine with the average 6 dollar a month package nowadays.

    I have a blog that pushes around 1Gig / Day traffic. It has around 12,000 subscribers. The dedicated host you mention above would suit you fine! It's not far off the dedicated server I have actually. Nice price

    Agreed with above, 6TB is a huge amount. Like you I have around 3,000/3,200 unique visitors a day, our pages/unique are 10+ and we use no more than 600GB in a month. That's with huge amounts of images, and videos.

    Scale it down, from what you've said 3,000 people at 2 pages each is 6,000 pages per day. That's 186,000 pages per month. Not sure if I'm bang on here but doesn't that bw allowance give you scope for around 32MB each page!?

    Good luck with it, going dedicated was the best thing i ever did ;)
