just got this from their help section


Unlimited Services
Unlimited is determined by a set of Internet averages. At Bluedomino, we divide available resources by the number of users on the system. At any time that you exceed our averages, you will be contacted to discuss moving your site to a dedicated server.


how much space do you think one can use....

If *they* don't know, and don't tell you, how could anyone possibly know? Do yourself a favor and pick a reputable host that states what you get for your money. These types of hosts like to play games and lead people to believe that they are getting more than other places (when in fact they often offer far less that hosts that state limits).

Ummm.... won't 50% of the sites be "above average"?
Won't 1 heavy site pull up the average for everyone?

It makes perfect sense. Once you go past the limit they *have* but don't tell you, they kick you to keep the averages low, so they can kick you if you go past the average, which is determined by... nevermind... :)

ALL unlimited hosts have a limit, usually lower than ones that state their limits.
