Here is an example of the savings and return on investment(ROI) related to bandwidth expense from eliminating hotlinking for a typical midsize site:
- 20 mb/s sustained traffic
- 216 GB transfer/day
- 6696 GB transfer/month
- $0.50/GB
- $3348.00/month
- 10% hotlinking leakage
- bandwidth cost savings = $334.80/month
- annual cost savings = $4017.60
- ROI = 2018%
These numbers only include the dollars saved in bandwidth. No allowance
has been assumed for any savings in deferred server upgrades, increased
customer satisfaction or any other factors that also benefit your site
financially.
