If you are going for a personal website or small business website then you do not need huge Gigs of space and bandwidth but if you are of to a targeted site where traffic will be coming regularly and in huge number then you must go for larger bandwidth.

In addition check with the company by asking them different questions through phone or chat. If you are satisfied with customer support only then go with it other wise select some other web host.
