<div style='font: 12pt "Cooper Black"; text-align: left; '>In the near future i want to open a stupid little homepage where me and Kimberley can mess around with pages about us and pages with pictures and stuff like that to show family and friends (her idea of course). Well, my question was is 10 GB of data transfer a lot? Obviously, this page will have relatively low traffic, but i just want to make sure that people can always visit it if they need to.

This is the current best deal i found for a yourname.com kind of site, its $8.95 a month.

• Your own domain name: www.your-name.com
• 5 matching email accounts
• 25 MB of disk space for files and photos
• 10 GB of data transfer (bandwidth)/month
• Easy-to-use web design tools – no HTML required!
• FTP for instant site updates</div>

<div style='font: 10pt georgia; text-align: left; '>25mb is a bit low these days. You can get a lot more for about the same price. 10G transfer is way more than you'll ever need.</div>
