Yes! The No Limits Web Hosting Plan is designed to meet the typical needs of small - medium business web sites for customers in New Zealand. By not setting limits on key resources, we are able to provide simple, consistent pricing to you as you grow your website. As a result, a typical website may experience periods of great popularity and resulting increased storage and bandwidth without incurring any associated increase in hosting charges. There are some things our web hosting plan isn't meant for like storing backups, file sharing, hosting enterprise or very high traffic websites. If you're unsure whether your website meets our terms, have a quick check of our hosting agreement here: http://1stdomains.nz/info/hosting_agreement_1stdomains.php
