Even my bandwidth usage is still on zero! I've had 29,000 visitors this month (december) and my bandwidth used is shown to be 0. I wonder if I'll run out of bandwidth by the end of the month!! I've seen a trememdous increase in traffic lately. In nov, I had just 1475 visitors!! (my graph has gone bonkers!!) Can someone estimate how much bandwidth I must have exhausted until now. http://www.angadsodhi.com/wordpress/calvin...ely-schooldays/ is the page that had 95% of those hits and the post has about 140KB of images which are hosted on my site itself. And what do I do if I run out of bandwidth by the end of the month??

If your run out of bandwidth your account gets suspended until the start of the next month. There's not really much you can do.

The solution we came up with is to terminate my current account and apply for a new one once i have enough credits. Most likely when my account was created some of the files did not get transfered properly and so things don't work right. Getting a new account should fix this. I guess you will have to do the same, but I think your site will lose a lot of traffic with it being as popular as it is.

Have you tried the Update method that was posted earlier? If not then try that first, but with the amount of visitors your getting you should looking into paid hosting that has more bandwidth.

Its hard to gauge an actual BW usuage without looking at your website stats, but I would say to help cut down on BW usage would be to shrink the images in size or upload them to a image host that way the images won't cost you any bandwidth. Like I said with the visitors your getting you should look into paid hosting that way you won't have to worry about blowing though 10Gb of bw in less then a month.

Actually I was on the very basic plan at trap17 (the one that gives just 512 MB of bandwidth).
My bandwidth counter was not working and so I opened a ticket with xistosupport

After a couple of days after I had posted the ticket there was no reply. Today I get a message from them stating that my bandwidth used up is 1580MB out of the allowed 512MB and so my account has been suspended!!

Now why on earth did I bother bringing it to their notice?? Today's just the 13th of the month and I've run through my bandwidth. I've gone through the plans by computinghost. And I must say they seem too good to be true! I hope there are no loopholes in it! Sometimes when things get too good, we start suspecting em!

One more question. Now that I've got 30 credits can I upgrade now itself or will I have to wait till the end of the month?

I noticed that too last week when I did a bunch of updates on my site, and was worried about going over my bandwidth, but it showed 0 use. I know it did work when I first got my account here. I sure don't want to get carried away with updates and then get it to where nobody can visit my site. That would suck. Big time.

Did you take any steps besides the recommend ones that have been posted? If so you should post them and that way people can follow the process your took to get your stats to work again.

I was planning to terminate my account and apply again because i thought files were missing from my account. But everything just started working on its own, that is why i said thanks for all the hard work that has gone into solving these issues. I didnt do a thing.
