 * OK, this is weird, but I can’t find out what’s wrong or even if it’s a WordPress
   thing. I have an wordpress blog that doesn’t get much traffic or anything. It’s
   just stay’s stagnant but the disk space keeps getting used up. I hardly do any
   blogging or even use the site. Every once in a while I post something. Not getting
   much traffic but still the disk space usage keeps getting used up.
 * Anyone know what would consume disk space even when my blog is just sitting there
   not doing hardly anything?
 * Thanks

 * Maybe a ‘routine’ backup that is getting stored there each day…also check with
   your host if they have any input.

 * If this is on your server, you might have been cracked. Look for directories 
   or files that you didn’t put there. Someone might have access to your web space
   and is using it for their spam service or DOS attacks on other sites.
