Unlimited Bandwidth and
Disk Space
If you have been searching for a hosting provider you may come across "Unlimited Bandwidth" offered by some hosting providers, which usually is just an advertising gimmick. Generally Hosting companies are connected to high-speed Internet backbones which then charges them based on the amount of bandwidth that have been used by customers. Logically, how can companies give something for free but they themselves have to pay for it. They offer such feature because they know that normally a website only takes less than 1 GB/month.
The same is true for providers that offer unlimited web space. If your current hosting company offers unlimited disk space, try to upload files as many as possible and you will soon find out the truth of the offer.
How about hosting companies like Hostgator and Hostony that allow you to host unlimited domain names? Please notice the difference between "unlimited domains" and "unlimited space/bandwidth". Although you are allowed to host an unlimited number of domains with them, you still have to pay attention to the amount of bandwidth and disk space you utilize. That means unlimited domain hosting companies still have some limitations.
Today the count of Web Hosts is endless. If you start searching for the most suitable one for your needs, you will be there with a myriad of companies claiming to be No. 1 and offering the very best at dust cheap rates. But all these claims could be just a mirage, miles away from reality. Do your homework when looking for the right host and there will not be any unpleasant surprises later.
