If you use a script-driven platform for your site, it stores its data inside a database and the more substantial the site gets, the more information it stores. For example, if you start an Internet store, the size of the database that the e-commerce script employs will increase whenever you add more items. The same is valid for a forum script - the more users which register and the more comments they publish, the more substantial the database. If your websites become more popular or you simply want to include more content, this can be a problem in case that your website hosting account has limited database storage area. What the exact effect of geting to the limit shall be depends on the script - the site may function properly, but you may not be able to include any new info; the website may be displayed with errors; or, in the worst scenario, the entire website could simply go offline.
