In comparison with a static HTML Internet site where all content is on the actual pages of the site, any script-driven website stores all of its data inside a database. A few examples of this sort of Internet sites are a WordPress blog or an OpenCart e-commerce portal - in both cases, product listings, prices, blog posts, user reviews and so forth are collected in the database and not in the actual script files. The more the data you include, the larger the database gets and if your website hosting package has some limit for the maximum size a database could have, your website might not function correctly when you hit that limit. The effects can vary from being unable to include new info to inadequately working website or even the site showing nothing but error messages and not being accessible at all.
