If you use a script-driven platform for your site, it stores its information in a database and the larger the site becomes, the more information it collects. For example, if you start an e-store, the size of the database which the e-commerce script uses will increase as you add more goods. Exactly the same is valid for a forum script - the more users which register and the more comments they publish, the bigger 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 specific effect of reaching the limit will be depends on the script - the website could function adequately, but you may not be able to add any new info; the website could be displayed with errors; or, in the worst case scenario, your whole website may simply go offline.
