Generally traffic is referred to visitors to our website. And bandwidth of a hosting plan is the capacity of how much traffic a particular website that hosted with can handle. Then what is meant by web hosting traffic. Is it same as that of website traffic. Or it is something related to bandwidth of a website?

Web hosting traffic refers to the total data traffic (in bytes) that is sent to and from a web hosting service. This includes all data traffic generated by web pages, emails, images, videos, and other content that is hosted by the web hosting service.

Traffic of a website simply means the total hits a website gets to all of its pages. But when it comes to web hosting the traffic may be referred to as total hits multiplied with the size of each page those hits were received. This is directly related to the bandwidth of a website. So web hosting traffic can also be called as bandwidth usage. If your web page has a big content size or a lot of images videos etc then you need a lot much bandwidth than a plain text page content. If you have an unlimited bandwidth hosting then this must not be a concern. But shared hosting plans with very high bandwidth usage may sometimes get into trouble.

Bandwidth is the measurement of data, and the speed at which it flows through the phone lines, cable or DSL lines to transfer information to and from a web site via your computer. In relation to your web site hosting, Bandwidth measures this flow of data transfer, otherwise termed 'Traffic'

The topic of hosting involves many different aspects; reliability, customer support, pricing, add-on features, programming, and allowable installation of PHP and other popular marketing scripts. Today, I'm going to focus on ONE topic, traffic, and the effects it has on your web site's hosting. The simple one word answer here is 'Bandwidth'. By definition, Bandwidth is the measurement of data, and the speed at which it flows through the phone lines, cable or DSL lines to transfer information to and from a web site via your computer.

In relation to your web site hosting, Bandwidth measures this flow of data transfer, otherwise termed 'Traffic'. In plain English, it's the number of hits you receive to your site; pure volume multiplied by the file sizes included on your pages. So, if you have an all text based web site, you would be able to receive more traffic, at lower bandwidth numbers, than you would if you have a 'graphics' intensive page, which would naturally have higher file sizes that are being transferred from your site to your visitor's browser.

Yes it is related to both. 

When someone reaches your website, they are sending the request which counted as the traffic hit. And that consumes bandwidth of both reader and the host. And that is what it means when they tell you about the bandwidth consumption.

Many web hosts claim to offer high-traffic hosting, but few of them have the means to actually provide it. Choosing the right web host for traffic-intensive sites will deliver a better user experience.

Web hosting traffic refers  to the amount of data transferred to and from a website over a certain period of time, including data sent to visitors (HTML, images, etc.) and data  sent from visitors. It is often measured in bytes and referred to as "bandwidth" and is usually set a monthly limit by web hosting providers. Exceeding this limit can result in extra charges or suspension of service. Website  owners  should monitor their traffic usage to avoid extra charges and optimize their website.

Web hosting traffic is a measure of the amount of data that is transferred from the server to the websites hosted on it. This includes the number of visitors to the website, the amount of data they are downloading, and the amount of data they are uploading. The more web hosting traffic a website has, the more resources the server needs to provide to meet the demands of the website.

Web hosting traffic refers to the amount of data that is transferred between a website and its visitors. This traffic is generated when someone visits a website and requests its content, such as images, videos, and text, from the web server where the website is hosted. The amount of traffic that a website generates can be affected by a variety of factors, including the number of visitors to the site, the size and complexity of the website's content, and the type of website hosting plan being used.

Web hosting providers typically offer different levels of traffic allowance as part of their hosting plans. Some hosting plans may have a limited amount of traffic, which means that if the website exceeds the limit, it may become slow or unavailable. Other hosting plans may offer unlimited traffic, allowing the website to handle a higher volume of visitors without any issues. It's important for website owners to choose a hosting plan that can handle their website's expected traffic volume to ensure that their website runs smoothly and efficiently.
