this is a question i have wanted to ask for a long time. do embedded videos from you tube and other sites count against your bw transfer limits for the month?
 


No, I shouldn't think so. Actually, I'm pretty sure as the video is being downloaded from an external server, not yours.
 
Err...

You are not yet sure about this internet thingie, right?

Bandwidth refers to files transferred from your account.
For example, a jpeg on your site and server will be downloaded every time someone opens the page.

An embedded video just puts a link to a video on youTube's server, so... no bandwidth needed.
