transfer rate is how fast you can transer dats between each comp. The higher the number the faster the transfer.

Not how fast

Usually the transfer rate is going to be volume not speed. Lets say it takes .5 units of transfer to see your page, then you could have 500 people view your page at a trasfer rate of 250. That is why it is important to be carefull with your pics and make sure they are no larger (file size) than they have to be.

"the above numbers are hypethitical, i am sure someone else, a web designer could tell you the size of an average web page, and those transfer rates are in Giga Bytes ( 1 000 000 KB )"
