| Unlimited Bandwidth Myth |
Here at HammerHost, we don't believe in unlimited bandwidth. We believe in offering true high quality bandwidth at an affordable price. In the hosting world, their is no such thing as unlimited.
We believe that when other hosts use the term "unlimited bandwidth" it can be misleading in a number of ways.
When consumers decide they want to place a website on the internet, they often think that unlimited has no restrictions. But more than likely
they will have more restrictions than the company with a bandwidth limit. Why?
1. Most websites only don't consume a lot of bandwidth and disk space. Web hosting companies that provide unlimited bandwidth or disk space
are banking on the fact that you won't use very much. Unlimited is a marketing trick to get your business.
2. Unlimited companies will put in fine print that they will not host sites that contain forums, large amounts of images, etc. Those are the
items that consume a lot of bandwidth. So if they say you can't have those things on your site, then they don't have to worry about you using a lot of bandwidth or space. Which is
why they can offer unlimited.
3. Some unlimited companies will also oversell their services in hopes of generating a huge quantity of clients. If a server load gets to high,
If they oversell this means that your site could end up loading very slow or not at all.
Here at HammerHost, we pride ourselves in being honest and straightforward with each of our customers. If you are unsure how much bandwidth or space
your site needs, feel free to send us an e-mail. We will get back to you with what we think the right amount is. We're here to offer
honest, reliable web hosting at a great cost.
