If you use a script-driven platform for your Internet site, it stores its data within a database and the bigger the site becomes, the more data it stores. As an illustration, if you start an electronic store, the size of the database the e-commerce script employs shall increase whenever you add more goods. Exactly the same is valid for a forum script - the more users which register and the more opinions they publish, the bigger the database. If your websites become popular or you just want to include more content, this may turn into a problem in the event that your web hosting account has limited database storage area. What the particular effect of geting to the limit will be depends on the script - the Internet site can work correctly, but you may not be able to include any new content; the site could be viewed with errors; or, in the most severe scenario, your whole internet site may simply go offline.
