Storage and bandwidth

About Storage and Bandwidth

Storage and bandwidth are important features to keep in mind when choosing a Wix plan. They define how much content you can upload to your site and how smoothly visitors can browse it.

Storage

Storage is the total amount of space available to upload files and content to your Wix site. This includes images, videos, audio files, and documents.

• For example, if you run a portfolio website with a large number of high-quality images, you’ll need more storage space than a simple landing page.

• Wix Premium plans come with different storage amounts, depending on the plan you choose.

Tip: You can check how much storage you are using in the Storage Section of your site dashboard.

Bandwidth

Bandwidth is the amount of data your site can transfer to visitors. Each time someone views a page, watches a video, or downloads a file from your site, it consumes bandwidth.

• If your site attracts a high number of visitors or includes large media files, you’ll need more bandwidth.

• Some Wix plans provide limited bandwidth, while others include unlimited bandwidth to handle heavy traffic.

Tip: Wix notifies you if your site comes close to exceeding its bandwidth limit.

Increasing Storage and Bandwidth

If you need more storage or bandwidth than your current plan provides, you can upgrade at any time. Wix offers several Premium and Business & eCommerce plans with higher limits.
