The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to the site owner reaching his/her bandwidth limit. Please try again later''' appeared, what does this mean?? will the site come back on? or has it gone for good??

All website will have server to host. This server alocate the bandwidth limit that user can download every month. Basically it means that the limit paid by the website owner already exceed so they put the website on hold until the owner put some money in. or until next month

This means that the site will be down until the first part of next month.
Each time you visit a website, your computer is downloading the images and text that is on that site and storing it in your temp files. When you download these images from a website, it is using up bandwidth (the usage in megabytes or Gigabytes that is being transferred to and from the website). Most websites are only alotted a certain amount of transfer size per month. When that amount of transfer is used up, the site is unavailable until the recount begins again at the first of the next month.
Bandwidth is the amount that is being transferred back and forth from the site and should not be confused with storage. Storage is the amount that is allowed to be on the site at any one given time.

Think of a website like a book, a special book that can be read by hundreds or thousands of people at a time. BUT the book has limits and when too many people are reading it at the same time, the book disappears * poof! * to the folks who are OVER the limit.
So that's what Bandwidth Limit is - a limit on how many folks are on the website at any given time.
I would NOT trust a business website that reached its limit - it might be a FAKE website designed to steal your information...
Or, an angry customer might have attacked the website with a DENIAL OF SERVICE attack that makes the website ACT like too many people are trying to use it at once...

it means that the server has sent and recieved too many files or web pages for this month. It should be back soon.
