Bandwidth Bill
Posted: Thu 5 May, 2005 Filed under: D4D™ 2 Comments »Blimey – in the end last month went an awesome 5GB over my 3Gb limit, so I’ve paid 34sp a truly debt-increasing £7.50.
Now I just have to hope that I’ve got it sorted a bit more this month, so that the limit won’t be hit that hard again.
Is there something weird going on with 34sp and bandwidth? Are they measuring things differently? I’ve got slapped for excess bandwidth too, and I have had fewer visitors than in previous months when I didn’t. My bandwidth usage is now more than 3 times what it was last October, and my trafffic is nowhere near that much increased.
I don’t know – but I don’t think so. In the last month I got absolutely caned with hits from Google’s bloody image search, and also being in the “Top Ten Blogs” for about a fortnight upped my useage tables to a ridiculous level.
I’ve put some measures in place for the moment, and I’m going to see how it all goes. I just don’t want to end up paying similar bills each month.
