Went over monthly bandwidth allocation

My website went over it’s monthly bandwidth allocation for the first time! Which is BAD news. My monthly bandwidth allocation is 20 GB. In April the website used 25.83 GB. So I ended up paying an extra £5 this month, so cover the cost of the extra bandwidth. Which is a lot, since I only pay £3.95 a month to host this website. Most of that extra bandwidth has come from a SPAM website. Hoping I have now blocked traffic coming from that host. I don’t have the money to pay an extra £5 a month, if it goes over like it did last month.

Below is a graph showing the total bandwidth used in April 2012.

So in some said news, to try to save some bandwidth. I have had to make lots of the photos smaller again. I had been uploaded the new photos at 1,920 x 1,080. I have just re-sized them all back to the normal 1,000 x 750.

If that, does not do the job. May have to remove the wallpaper, since that does use a far bit of bandwidth.

I will keep you all updated on this…

April 2012 cycling statistics

Here are my cycling statistics for April. I was hoping to do a lot more than just 404.48 mikes in April, but the wind and rain put a stop to that! I think you can let me off, since it’s been the wettest April since records began back in 1910. Read “April is the wettest month for 100 years” on the BBC News website, to show that I am not making that up!

Here is the data from April 2012:-

  • Total cycles: 17.
  • Total Distance: 404.48 miles.
  • Total Time: 32:08:52 (h:m:s).
  • Avg Speed: 12.6 mph.
  • Max Time: 5:05:44 (h:m:s).
  • Max Speed: 32.8 mph.
  • Avg Distance: 23.79 miles.
  • Max Distance: 65.46 miles.

Data from: Garmin Connect.
