webhosting question

[Corvus]

I am considering to buy a domain name soon, together with some webhosting. The company I\'m interested in offers several solutions, but basically the big price difference is made up for the amount of bandwidth you get each month.

Given my current site design (http://corvusminiatures.cjb.net), and my current average of visitors (20-30 per day), how much traffic will I need do you think?

The cheapest solution has 1.5 Gigs of traffic each month, but I\'m not sure if that will be enough...

Thanks,

-Gerrie.

I go through aplus.net and I\'ve been really happy with them. I\'ve got 200m to play with (originally had 500, but I changed my plan to allow for pHp) that has unlimited bandwidth for $10 a month.
(it\'s the Solo XR plan)

Thanks for the reply Rigger, but I wasn\'t really looking for a hosting provider (because I already have one in mind).

I just want to know if 1.5 gigs for example will be enough...

Well.. 1.5G = 1,572,864 Kb
Figure 30 days in the month leaves you at
about 52,429 KB a day.. figure 30 people hitting that is 1748K per user which works out to about 174 100K images. per visit.. plus whatever text and code is being transfered back and forth. If you feel that is sufficient, go for it.

I think my stats for network-23.net for December were 2,085,646K total which would have been over, and I added more pictures since then.. so traffic is on the rise. This month I\'m already at 607,812K (but that is about 40 visits a day)

I\'ll let you make the decision based upon those numbers... but I would be inclined to go to the next set-up.. or look for a service that offers unlimited bandwidth.
