what is 1mbit per month 10mbit 100mbit per month unmetered ?? i mean what is that mean in the same as 1000gb data transfer per month ??? why is it so expensive that add 10mbit/sec will charge like $500us dollars more in addition to basic hosting fees ?? thanks sincerely yours,

I think you are refering to 2 different things. One is the total allocation , which is eg. 100 GB per month , or 10 GB per month. The other one is the transfer rate i.e. 10Mbit/second. When they say 10 Mbit/sec , it doesnt say how many MB or GB you can transfer. When they say unmetered , and you get 10Mbits/sec , this allows you to transfer unlimited amount of data per month. that is why it is expensive. I was told by a member here, that 1Mbit/sec can be optimized to somewhere around 350 GB per month, depending on the websites usage Hope this helps Joshua

10mbit/sec is a good connection speed, if you need that connection speed then you'd probably be using a lot of bandwidth.
