Internet traffic refers to the flow of data across the Internet. It consists of all the information sent and received by users, including web pages, emails, videos, and other online content. This data is transmitted in packets, which are small units of information that travel through various networks to reach their destination. The amount of Internet traffic can vary greatly depending on factors like time of day, events, or popular trends. High traffic can lead to slower connection speeds and increased loading times for websites. Network providers monitor this traffic to ensure efficient data delivery and maintain service quality.
