If you happen to run a WordPress blog, for instance, the disk space its database uses shall expand when you add new posts and site visitors leave comments below them. An increasing database may become an issue if the website hosting account that you use has limited space and sometimes even plans with unlimited space in general still have limited database storage area. If you reach the limit, you won't be able to add new content. Other potential consequences are that your internet site may not perform the way it ought to or that it might not appear online at all, which may result in lost potential clients.
