Do I need a lot of storage for a photo gallery?
It depends on the volume and resolution of the files. The unlimited NVMe storage on miHosting's professional plan is designed for active websites like these.
Can I host my own videos on my hosting?
Yes, with platforms like ClipBucket or CumulusClips you can host and play your own videos, although for very high video traffic volumes a VPS is also worth considering.
