Storage & Quotas: Understanding Your Limits

To ensure high performance and fair usage for all creators, Postion implements storage and bandwidth quotas. These limits vary depending on your subscription plan.

1. Storage Quota

Your Storage Quota refers to the total size of all files (images, videos, documents) you have uploaded to your sites.

• Checking Usage: Go to Settings -> Storage in your main dashboard to see your current usage.
• Base Limit: All plans start with 100MB of storage.
• Addons: You can purchase additional storage addons if you need more space:
  • 1GB
  • 5GB
  • 10GB
  • 25GB
  • 50GB
  • 100GB

Managing Storage

If you are nearing your limit, you can:

• Delete Unused Files: Remove old images or media from your library.
• Optimize Images: Use tools like TinyPNG to compress images before uploading.
• Buy Addon: Purchase a storage addon from the Storage dashboard.

2. Bandwidth Quota

Bandwidth is the amount of data transferred when visitors view your site.

• Fair Usage Policy: We generally do not enforce strict bandwidth caps for normal usage. However, sites with extremely high traffic (e.g., millions of views per month) may be contacted to discuss enterprise solutions.

  • Free Plan: Email marketing is not included (0 subscribers).

FAQ

What happens if I exceed my storage limit?

Can I downgrade addons later?

Is there a free tier for storage?

Yes, all plans include 100MB of free storage. This is enough for a text-focused blog with compressed images.
