As script-driven apps gather their information inside a database, including more information to this kind of site will not result in a bigger size of the app files, but in a larger size of the database the site employs. In case you run a WordPress blog, for example, the disk space which its database uses shall expand as you add new posts and website visitors leave comments underneath them. An expanding database could become an issue if the Internet hosting account that you use has limited space for storage and occasionally even plans with unlimited space in general still have limited database space. If you reach the limit, you will not be able to add new information. Other possible outcomes are that your internet site may not work the way it should or that it might not appear online at all, which may result in lost potential customers.
