I know bandwidth is unlimited on WP.com, but…
-
… is there any way for me to see how much I’ve used up?
Just for my own interest :)
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

That would actually be really nice unless you decide to go with a webhost with unlimited bandwidth, that is, if you were wanting to move to a self-hosted wordpress.org site.

Free WordPress.com blogs come with 3000 megabytes (~3 GBs) of space for storing uploaded files and images. See here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/space-upgrade/

I knew all that, but like I was saying, if you wanted to move your site from wordpress.com to a self-hosted wordpress.org site, you’d know how many views you got, but how much bandwidth you used is unknown, so if you say get 10 gb of bandwidth from your hosting provider, you would need to know if you usually exceeded this limit on a regular basis, but on wordpress.com, you have no way of knowing.

Sorry, I didn’t make myself as clear as I wanted to. 10 gb per month is what I meant to say.

Even if you know the number of “visitors” – bots and other web crawlers are not counted as a “visitor” so even multiplying visitors times page size will not give you a good number.

which is why I say it would be really nice to know how much bandwidth we’ve used. Is there a way to see how big your pages are so you can get a rough estimate? Also, are files shown in the stats?

Perhaps you would like to take this issue up directly with Staff http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/ -
Ok, I don’t think I’ll do anymore on it then. Maybe we can make this a sticky post at the top of the forum so that anyone who is considering moving there blog from wordpress.com to wordpress.org can do this, but since I have no intention to do so at the moment, I am not going to do anything further.
