Q: What exactly is space and bandwidth/data transfer?

Disk space is the maximum size of your website. Every single letter on your website has to be stored somewhere on your web host's server. Each letter is one byte, and a megabyte is roughly one million bytes. HTML pages are usually very small, but the extra images, scripts, and databases take up large amounts of disk space. Bandwidth/Transfer is the amount of data the server will allow your site to send in a single month. Transfer is usually measured in gigabytes - billions of bytes.
