I have a limited bandwidth on my hosting to run my blogs. One of my blog with 3000 visitors a day now spend almost all my bandwidth (almost 50 gb). Is it normal or not? I try to use hotlink protection, but don't know why its always failed... Does anyone have any trick to use awstat report to limit bandwidth in cpanel hosting? What kind of IP or referral link should I block anyway? Or anyone have other way to save bandwidth on your hosting? Please tell me, how to do it. Thanks a lot... Hope to hear you all... ^_^

As much as possible, I do not go to limited bandwidths when it comes to hosting. Aside from you can't do much in your blog when you're limited, it'll cost you more money to extend more bandwidths (not so sure about this) You should have gone to the Unlimited Bandwidth. It's much more practical, actually and you can save a lot because you can add up many domains as you like to that hosting. Unlike when you're in a limited bandwidth, you have to purchase another hosting for another domain! Well, in my opinion, do cut off some unwanted banners or links in your blog. By unwanted, I meant, those that doesn't gain you traffic or creates a single cent to you. Hope I've helped somehow.

Hi there, it is better to go for unlimited bandwidth from the beginning, if you do this you will end up saving money at the end.

Yes... Now i agree too.. It will takes about 7 days to transfer my domain to my new hosting. Because my hosting recently not provide unlimited bandwidth package, so should rent new hosting. Thank you guys for giving me a good advice. :)
