Just how much bandwidth is Read and Find out using per month? cmdjing Send a noteboard - 11/07/2010 05:50:02 AM
With web hosting as cheap as it is, I don't see how anyone could not support it unless they were an unemployed student.

Site traffic has been trending downwards for months since last years peak immediately after the release of the Gathering Storm.

Page views per user is 28 according to Alexa and the total unique users per day is well below 1000.

Assuming each page view is using 100kb that only works out about 3 gigabytes a day or less than 100 gigabytes a month. There is of course also the issue of storage space due to an expanding database but still storage space can generally be purchase al carte.

Unless web hosting in the UK is exponentially more expensive than in the US. It shouldn't cost more than 7 dollars a month to run the site.
