If you browse to the folder that contains your entire web site, right clicking on the folder and selecting properties will give you a total of the files (and sub folders) it contains. This is a good starting point in calculating the size of your web site.


Be aware that the total size of your site is not as important as the bandwidth (traffic) you expect to see, most web hosting providers limit the amount of traffic more strenuously than the size of the site.


If a normal visitor to your site will move 500Kb in traffic from your site, multiply that by the number of visitors you expect to have and this will give you a good idea of traffic volume.


All (good) websites grow over time, so don't be afraid of rounding up your calculations ;0)
Reply:Right click on the folder that your site is stored in IE: My Web and then look at the file usage. Try www.freeservers.com. They are not too bad.
