I'm considering on changing the hosting I'm using, but most of the good ones have a transference limit per month. I'm absolutely clueless about how much traffic my site could have (right now), so I can't have an idea what's the figure I should consider for my site. Can any of you tell me which is your site's transference average? Or do you know any way I could measure this? (Note: I have no direct access to the server or firewall of my host... meaning, I'm not hosting my site)

I might have a clue how many users visited my site... but not per month. Besides, there are many pictures... and most important several installers and file which are 2-3 MB long.

then you might need some GBs transfer.. you could use mirrors for the biggest files.. find a cheap,fast server with a fast connection and loads of GBs in transfer
