Bandwidth question...

Deliverance XXV · 2007-07-29 15:01:29

Hey guys, just a quick question or two... If I were to embed videos and flash games on my site would that consume large amounts of bandwidth OR would the originating site take the hit and only a small consumption of bandwidth on my site? Any idea of how much bandwidth being used? Thanks in advance guys! :D

If you are embedding the likes of YouTube videos, they take the hit.

Any videos/flash hosted on your own disk space will use your bandwidth, but if you embed a video file from YouTube the only bandwidth used on your side will be from the HTML webpage, not the video content.
