If you are new to hosting space, you may be surprised that there are many hosts that make money by duping customers into the traffic based hosting. For example Kinsta and WPEngine are two such hosting companies that charge your hosting account based on per visit by the internet user. Here your credits for such hosting runs out fairly quickly even a bot visits your website. And on the other hand where bandwidth based hosting happens like say Amazon AWS, Shared hosting sites etc. They are much lenient on the traffic side, and you don't waste much money on hosting that way.
So if you have money in your pocket, where would you spend, bandwidth based hosting or traffic hit based?
