Im working on a site..Its basically some forums.. Im just wondering what a resonable amount of Bandwidth I would need?? Just an estimate?

Im saying about 200 regular visitors..

On my current host I only have 6GB..Im guessing that wont be enough?

Thanks

Depends on the site's content. A site with MP3 downloads and videos would need more than a mostly text site.

Thanks

If I get about 400MB a day at the most that would be around 12GB a month..
So I think I will go for 30GB

There is alot of hosting companies that can offer exactly what you need.

YOu probably only need about 10 gigs or so if all 200 users are active etc. I would say though try with a free account and if you find that you dont get enough bandwidth then upgrade to a host companies pay account.

Reason being is if you only have a forum and your not posting huge pics or songs or stuff for download you might not even need 1 gig :P Just depend s on the foruma nd your users.
