- Data Transfer
- In general, any outward bound traffic from a web site, with the exception of e-mail, is
considered to be data transfer. For example, each time a web page, image, midi file,
QuickTime video, etc. is loaded, data transfer is generated. Each of our plans includes a
generous amount of free data transfer which should be more than enough for most sites. In
fact, 98% to 99% of our customers operate within their free data transfer allowance.
Additional data transfer beyond the threshold will incur a small charge.
