phpbb bandwidth? - about how much?

clouds421
It's my first time running a board. After installing it, the size comes about 20mb, and so far only expecting 10-20 visitors a day, not really expected to grow much maybe up to 40 visitors a day at the most.

I haven't put up my site yet, but want put a gallery in there. The thing is I don't want to run into any trouble such w/ exceeding bandwidth 'cause the forum's more important. So how much bandwidth am I looking at for the board?

ok what you have to do is go to the folder on your ftp account where the forum is then go on images then go on avatars then gallery then creat a folderin there called pictures and place all of your pictures in there and they they will all come on the site biggrin.gif

need any more help just ask.

heheheü mobile, clouds is asking for bandwidth tongue.gif forums don't take up
much bandwidth as all scripts are processed on the server side (if you're
using PHP), and only the output gets sent to the client side. you would
be safe with 500MB bandwidth a month if it's just the forums. even if the
forums is as active as trap17. smile.gif

but if you have bandwidth extensive sections in your site (like downloads
and other stuff), your bandwidth usage will depend on how much your
visitors utilize those sections. there's no clear way to determine that, as
everything depends on daily fluctuating factors.

Doesn't it depend also on how many images,,etc are in the forums for page loads, or if you allow the posting of images. You shoudnt have any trouble but if u do u could just restrict the images tags for users.

Trust me, you can get thousands of visitors and it wont soak up bandwidth.

I have had 31000+ hits so far and i havent gone over 50mb
