Bandwidth Leeching

(Jul 2006 - page 4 of 4)

Summary

Though not exhaustive, the anti-leeching techniques presented in this article represent the most common approaches to the problem. My own research tends to suggest that "technique 1: Manual file renaming" and "technique 7: Locking down the server using htaccess, etc." are the most popular out there in the global web-world.

Experiment and find a solution that works best for you; for maximum effect try combining several of the methods described. And if you'd like to share your experiences on the subject, or suggest techniques not described here, please leave a comment below.
