What is web space?

Web space refers to the amount of disk space you will be allowed to use on your web hosts server. Web space, also called disk space, is usually measured in MB or megabytes. Each server can hold only so much information, or megabytes, and thus must ration out the amount each user can use. An individual server can host hundreds of web sites. An economically savvy web host will monitor the amount of web space being used so they can host as many users on one server as possible. The more web space a web host offers their users the more servers they must have to be able to provide this space. This is why you must pay more for more web space. Do you see now how unlimited web space is virtually impossible for a web host to grant?
