Web Hosting - Quota Allocation and Resource Usage
Initial disk space is allocated according to the Service Level of your account. Additional quota allocation is available to customers who require more disk space.
The allocation for each service level includes equal amounts for test and production. e.g. A Gold level account with 25 GB will include 25 GB for the test environment and 25 GB for production.
NOTE: MySQL databases are included in the total quota allocation.

We can add storage at the base rate of $5 /1GB/ per year
If a customer requires large volume pricing, we can implement a sliding storage rate based on the larger volumes, or we can provide advice about other available options.
