Web Hosting - Bandwidth Polices

Your web account and the domains within do not have a bandwidth cap (i.e. un-metered) for both web traffic and the upload of content.

Important

These resources must be respected and used per legitimate university activities and are subject to the UW-Madison Responsible Use of Information Technology Policy.

Bandwidth is a commodity for community hosting.  In some cases high availability with dedicated servers is a better fit: Web Hosting - Shared vs. Dedicated Hosting Options

We reserve the right to enact bandwidth limits or take other actions for applications violating our Web Hosting - Terms of Use

Please limit the sending of bulk email or campaigns sent to thousands of users.  They can consume significant server resources, potentially impacting other users and the overall performance of the hosting provider's infrastructure.
