Hi all,

You who use ex. GoogleMap on your site, be aware, they have usage limits in place since beginning of 2012 and after that "big G" sends you a bill what with resonable traffic are far from small.

Limits are now 25000 loads / day and for a "styled" map low as 2500 loads / day.
After that are the cost $4 / $8 per 1000 loads.

Did a caclulation using my sites most busiest day as load-value, it did $600 for just one day.

Limits applys also for ex NokiaMaps what i use on NSDisplay2 or NWN.
Their limit are 500000 loads "lifetime" for an app (NSD are one app).
Their site does not say what it costs after that.

Incredible news Henkka!  8O 8O
...but it seems that only 0.35% of sites in the world exceeded the limit!
