Redux: velospace bandwidth
Back in April I broke down the bandwidth numbers for velospace. Here we are six months later, lets take a look at how things are going. First, the original bandwidth numbers:
Bandwidth per month, % growth over previous month
- May 2006: 20GB
- June 2006: 28 GB, 40%
- July 2006: 35 GB, 25%
- August 2006: 52 GB, 28%
- September 2006: 67 GB, 29%
- October 2006: 85 GB, 27%
- November 2006: 101 GB, 19%
- December 2006: 116 GB, 15%
- January 2007: 135 GB, 16%
- February 2007: 145 GB, 7%
- March 2007: 186 GB, 28%
And here are the numbers since the last update - from April through September:
Bandwidth per month, % growth over previous month
- April 2007: 214 GB, 14%
- May 2007: 232 GB, 8%
- June 2007: 254 GB, 9%
- July 2007: 288 GB, 12%
- August 2007: 341 GB, 16%
- September 2007: 350 GB, 3%
Things are going very well as you can see by the percentage growth over the previous month. Bandwidth consumption continues to grow steadily at around 10% over the previous month, and at much much larger rates over the previous three, six, and twelve months.
Its exciting to see the site continue to grow and mature. On a photo sharing site like velospace it is no surprise that bandwidth numbers are high, the site is highly trafficked because people want to see bikes. If you have any questions or comments don’t hesitate to drop me a note.
