When coming into the world of web site hosting for the first time, there are a lot of confusing words tossed about.  I am here to help with the most often referred to word, disk space.  So what is disk space and how does it related to your web hosting account?

Disk space is the amount of space you have available for you to store your data.  For example, you might have a small closet that you can only fit 12 jackets in.  If you were measuring your closet space’s disk space in jackets – which would be rather odd – then your disk space would be “12 jackets”.  In web site hosting, your data is stored on a hard drive.  Like with your computer, the web hosting server’s hard drive only has so much space – and your web host will tell you how much space they are providing to you.

I hope this helps when it comes to figuring out how web hosting disk space is related to your hosting account.  If you have any other terms that confuse you, let us know in the comments.
