Frequently Asked Questions

What is bandwidth and why does it matter?

Bandwidth (also called data transfer) is the total amount of data that can flow to and from your VPS each month. It is measured in terabytes (TB). Higher bandwidth allows more visitors, larger file downloads, and more data-intensive operations without incurring overage charges or throttling.

How are the Best Bandwidth deals calculated?

We calculate the bandwidth-to-price ratio by dividing the monthly transfer allowance (in TB) by the monthly price. Plans offering more terabytes per dollar rank higher. This helps you find maximum data transfer capacity for your budget.

What is the difference between bandwidth and network speed?

Bandwidth is the total monthly data transfer limit, while network speed (measured in Mbps or Gbps) is how fast data transfers at any given moment. A plan might have a 1 Gbps port speed (fast) but only 1 TB monthly bandwidth (limited total). Both matter depending on your use case.

What workloads need high bandwidth?

High-bandwidth workloads include: video streaming platforms, CDN origin servers, file hosting and download sites, backup and sync services, gaming servers, high-traffic websites, API services with large payloads, and media delivery applications.

How much bandwidth do I need?

For low-traffic websites: 1-2 TB/month. For medium traffic sites: 2-5 TB/month. For high-traffic applications: 5-10+ TB/month. For streaming/CDN: 10-50+ TB/month. Calculate based on average page size multiplied by expected monthly visitors, plus any file downloads.

What does "unlimited" or "unmetered" bandwidth mean?

Unmetered bandwidth means you are not charged per GB transferred, but there is typically still a port speed limit (e.g., 1 Gbps). "Unlimited" plans usually have fair use policies. For heavy usage, plans with explicit high TB allowances often provide more predictable performance.

Are these unmanaged Linux VPS plans?

Yes, all listed plans are unmanaged Linux VPS with full root access. You can configure network settings, set up bandwidth monitoring, implement traffic shaping, and optimize your applications for efficient data transfer.
