05 If I go over my plan limit, will I be charged overages?

We don’t like charging overages because we understand there is a fluctuation between your traffic month-to-month. We do take a longer term view of your site traffic and will consult with you before we charge any overages. In many cases we establish a yearly traffic volume and bill any variants plus or minus to cover spikes during the year.
