HI Barry, 

These are very low transfer figures, they are not really giving you much room
to play here at all,... 
to give you an idea Barry, here is the last two days of our sites traffic.. 

Hits               Bytes      Visits      PViews       Date

32,122         173,688,626       1,962       7,165     23 Jan  
50,527         280,018,758       2,276       8,644     24 Jan

and our own pages are small ones... so be careful when selecting a provider,
and keep one eye of the future traffic requirements... we have quite a few
clients whos sites transfer over 500mb's daily.. ( and not adult sites either!
) but with 535mbps of bandwidth, they are quite happy..

later
