Is video and media streaming allowed on HostAramda shared hosting servers?

Video and media streaming are quite resource-intensive tasks. We do not straight out forbid their usage on our Shared Hosting Servers, however, you will likely reach the capabilities of your plan very fast if you practice it.

If you want to host such content, we recommend looking into our VPS and Dedicated Servers. Utilizing these types of plans will provide you with dedicated resources, and you will not have to worry about reaching a certain threshold on your account, which can compromise your website's uptime.

An alternative method you can use to have steaming and video content on your site is to embed them from a third-party website such as Youtube, Vimeo, or similar sources. Doing so will cause the resources to be loaded from the remote sites, instead of your server, dramatically lowering the resources, it would typically use if they were hosting on it.
