Bandwidth
How many people can view your website or files before the site crashes. My website's bandwidth is 75 gigabytes a month. If I had only one file on my website and it was exactly 1 gigabyte in size, then 75 people could look at the file. When the 76th person tries to view the file, it will not work. If you find your website often crashes or uses up all the bandwidth, you will probably want to pay for more.
Chmod
"Chmodding" a file involves changing the permissions — who can access/use/change the file? If your website uses cPanel, the option to "chmod" is in the "File Manager".
