Frequently Asked Questions
How is bandwidth calculated?
Bandwidth is calculated using the formula:
(Monthly Visitors × Page Views per Visitor × Page Size × Redundancy) ÷ (30 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes × 60 seconds) × 8 bits per byte
What is a redundancy factor?
The redundancy factor accounts for traffic spikes and growth. A factor of 1.5 means you're adding 50% extra capacity to handle unexpected traffic surges without performance issues.
How do I estimate my average page size?
Use browser developer tools (Network tab) to measure your page load size. Average modern web pages are 1.5-2.5 MB when accounting for all HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and images.
Why is bandwidth important for my website?
Sufficient bandwidth ensures your website loads quickly and remains accessible during traffic spikes. Insufficient bandwidth leads to slow loading times, timeouts, and poor user experience.
