Know your Blogger (blogspot) blog hosting and bandwidth limits. Now many of them don’t know clearly about the blogger limit of usage, this post will explain blogger’s hosting and bandwidth limit.
Blogger hosting limits:Blogger is a FREE hosting service from Google. You can add any number of pages (posts) to your blogspot blog, but there is a limit of images you upload in your blogger posts. Google stores all your images uploaded in your blog in picasa, which is acquired by Google recently. So there is limit of 1GB for your blogspot images other than your 7GB to 8GB storage limit of your Gmail, which is only used for mail. To see your limit just log in to Picasa webalbums with your blogger username and password. Then click on setting in upper right side and in settings click storage, you will see your limit and used bar which has maximum limit of 1GB. You can also upgrade once you have crossed the limit, price are as follows after limit -
10GB – $20/yr
40GB – $75/yr
150GB – $250/yr
400GB – $500/yr
If you are only blogging with words and not using many images in your blog, then you need not worry as your blogger hosting account is almost equal to unlimited.
Blogger Bandwidth limits:
Bandwidth limit means how many people or visitors can visit your website or blog per month. But there is no bandwidth limit for your blogger blog. Some of the FREE and even paid hosting services will limit your website or blog using bandwidth per month or even day. You have to pay extra if you exceed this limit, and in serious case your hosting account may also be suspended without notice. But thanks to Google as there is no such Bandwidth limit in Blogger blogspot blog, you can have a million visitors per day. But if you use other custom templates other than blogger default templates and have many visitors per day, your template images may not be shown due to limit of image hosting, which depends on the hosting website your template images are hosted. For example if your blogger template images are hosted on photobucket and have many users, the template images may say bandwidth exceeded upgrade account. There is a solution to this also which will be explained in this blog later.
