No, your Disk Space includes your website plus the storage facility of all your email accounts’ mailboxes.
The web hosting disk space allocation typically includes storage for website databases, logs, and any other data associated with the hosting account, depending on the hosting package that has been purchased, whether cPanel Web Hosting, or WordPress Hosting..

Web Hosting Disk Space Uses
- Website Files – This includes HTML, CSS, JavaScript, images, videos, and any other files that make up your website.
- Databases – The information in these databases will also take up disk space if your website uses a database management system like MySQL. The real data, indexes, and additional metadata are all included in this.
- Emails – If email services are included in your hosting package, your sent and received emails plus any attachments will use disk space.
- Logs – Server logs are kept on disk; they include access, error, and file transfer protocol logs. These logs can build up over time and take up disk space, although they are frequently rotated or sometimes cut to keep the disk from being full.
- Temporary Files – Applications and your website may also create temporary files, such as session files, cache files, and transient uploads, which can require disk space.
- System Files – Although this usually makes up a small percentage of your total allotment, some disk space is set aside for system files and operating system requirements.
Note: It’s essential to monitor your disk space usage regularly. This is especially important if you’re on a shared hosting plan with limited resources. Exceeding your allocated disk space can lead to various issues, including website downtime, email delivery failures, and data loss.

Tips For Managing Disk Space
Manage disk space efficiently to ensure your website and other services operate smoothly. Here are some tips for effectively managing disk space:
Frequent Monitoring
Monitor your disk space utilization frequently and configure alerts to notify you when the amount of disk space you have left is almost gone.
Delete Extra Files
Any unnecessary files or data should be deleted, including plugins or themes that aren’t necessary, outdated backups, and duplicate database entries.
Optimize Media & Images
Files including images and media can take up a lot of disk space. Compressing your photos can optimize them without compromising quality. To reduce file size, use the proper image types and sizes.
Enable Compression
Enable compression for your website resources, such as CSS, JavaScript, and HTML files.
Implement Caching
Utilize caching mechanisms to reduce server load and disk space usage. Caching stores frequently accessed data temporarily, reducing the need to regenerate content for each request.
Manage Email Storage
Ensure you regularly clear your inbox by archiving or deleting outdated emails. Create rules in your email client to automatically sort and filter incoming emails.
Database Optimization
Consistently optimize your databases to eliminate unnecessary tables, improve table layouts, and remove duplicate information. Use plugins or database maintenance tools for optimizing tables, data cleansing, and index optimization.
