The Google storage plan is starting at $20 USD per year for 6GB (Google Blogscoped reported that it was only $1). The largest plan is 250GB at $500/year.

Get the most of out your Google Analytics

ByLiew Cheon-Fong

Everyone loves more traffic, no doubt about that. I’m a firm believer that in order to be successfully in something we must first understand our current status, position and condition. That’s why I really suggest before any of us intend to build some traffics for our blog, try spending few minutes (probably an hour or two) understanding your current blog crowd.
