High-Profile Blog
Oct 9, 2009
I'm going to be setting up and hosting a high-profile wordpress blog. It'll probably get around 800.000 pagehits per month. The client has been asking about Peak Capacity, Throughput and whatnot and I'm honestly am not sure what to tell him.
So far I've been maintaining a 1and1 windows 2003 dedicated server with about 20 websites, but none which comes close to that amount of traffic.
My plan is to go for a Linux box with the following specs:
CPU: Opteron 1218 HE
CPU Details: 2 x 2.6 GHz
RAM:4 GB RAM
Hard Disks: 2 x 400 GB (RAID 1 Software)
Bandwidth: 100Mbps

Is there any shared host which can easily drive a wordpress blog with 100,000-150,000 unique visitors every month?
The blog in question has wp-supercache and is quite a bit tweaked and consumes roughly 30-50GB of bandwidth every month (with mod deflate enabled on server). My priorities are good uptime, fast servers and network (especially to India) and good customer support.

I have a blog that gets about 50,000 unique users a month and I'm looking for a host that would fit the bill. I'm using wordpress so that's obviously a requirement, but also I would like RoR support. Other than that I'm pretty open. My fear is just that I'll get relegated to a slow server or have my account suspended. My budget is really whatever I need to pay. I'd like to find something at $15 a month or under but I'm willing to pay up to $50 or more if need be.
I'm planning on growing the traffic more in the future so I'm not sure if I should just go for dedicated hosting now or wait. I've checked out hostgator and they seem to have good reviews and fit the bill well, I'm just not sure if they are suited for high traffic sites or not.

I modified /etc/profile on CentOS 4.3, after failed, I change everything back. but I got errors as follows:
: command not found
: command not found
'ash: /etc/profile: line 6: syntax error near unexpected token `{
'ash: /etc/profile: line 6: `pathmunge () {
I am pretty much sure the file is as same as original one. but no idea on why the error occurs?
My full content of profile is:

pathmunge () {
if ! echo $PATH | /bin/egrep -q "(^|:)$1($|:)" ; then

Code:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 975 Dec 22 2006 .bash_profile
root@server [~]# rm -f .bash_profile
rm: cannot remove `.bash_profile': Operation not permitted
root@server [~]# chmod +t .bash_profile
chmod: changing permissions of `.bash_profile': Operation not permitted
I simply wanted to modify something within the file but I keep getting permission errors. I'm logged in as root.

How do you do Myspace Style Profile Name Mod Rewrites?
I have Mod-rewrite code turned on for Friendly URLS in options.
But for member profiles in .htaccess. I want it to look like this:
[URL]...
Instead of this:[URL]...
This way members can link friends to their profile easier.

I've got the following Issue with Apache 2.4.7: <OS 5> Zugriff verweigert: AH00370: Failed to create WinNT Service Profile
Well i should mention, that the same Packages are running properly configured in a Virutal Machine (same configuration as my Livemachine) without any problems whatsoever.
Its my Livemachine, where Apache keeps returning this Message while attempting to install Apache as a Service.
Installed Packages:
Apache: httpd-2.4.7-win32-VC11.zip
PHP: php-5.5.7-Win32-VC11-x86.zip
MySQL: mysql-installer-community-5.6.15.0
phpMyAdmin-4.1.3-all-languages.zip
OperatingSystem: Windows 7-64 Ultimate SP1
UAC: Disabled
CMD: tried the "Execute as Administrator" as well as without (<- which is always working in my Case)
Logfile: Apart from the ususal "install.log", nothing else inside the Logs Folder.
Even reinstalled Apache twice, with- and without my Configurationfiles, but still got the same results.

I have a cPanel server with 4GB RAM
My server hangs time to time, once or twice a day. This is the last status when it happens.
Server Load 75.90 (2 cpus)
Memory Used 92 %
Swap Used 65.78 %
When I was still inside SSH when it happens, the processes I can see inside "top" are a lot of httpd processes.
So I "killall -9 httpd", I had to do it 30~40 times
#killall -9 httpd
#killall -9 httpd
#killall -9 httpd
x 30~40 times until no pid process found & the server load is back to normal.
Before that, I check httpd fullstatus, they look very normal, same goes to what I see inside WHM Apache status & cpu usage status.
At first I thought it was a memory problem after consulting with a server admin, so I replaced all 4GB new ram stick (such a waste)

I have a site that is eating up my server resources and need to know what the best solution for this is. I'm thinking of getting another server just for mysql but do not know what specs the server should be to handle the current traffic/database load and have the site run smoothly without slowing down to a snail's pace.
An alternative is to get another server just for the videos being served and leave the database and html on the current server. This is where I'm stuck and don't know what route to take with this.
My current server stats:
Dual Xeon 5130
4GB RAM
250GB
50 Mbit/sec
CentOS 3.9
Website traffic stats:
15,000 visitors/day
150,000 pageviews/day
Serving videos
I've attached screenshots of top and bandwidth usage per day. Hopefully with this information you could tell me if I need another server or if there are any things I can do to the current server to help things move faster.

One of my wordpress blogs got hacked and my site is redirecting to a different site.... When I check the phpmyadmin, there is another sql server that I am not familiar with... and there are around 17 table... I cannot delete the tables... I already contacted my host and still waiting for response...
The installed database is "information_schema (17)"
Are you familiar with this?

I recently had issues with HostGator and left them and now I am with MediaTemple... They are absolute crap. My site goes down with "sql errors" every day and it is pathetic.
What is the most cost effective host with the best speed and uptime for my blog?

Simple web site:
www.oldWithoutMoney.com
Implemented WordPress a little while ago via cPanel's Fantastico widget -- vanilla implementation.
Just about every day, I get spam comments in the blog's Inbox for moderation.
Was wondering if folks had general tips on how to prevent or minimize this sort of nuisance and make the blog less bot-accessible, and/or where I might read up on ways to do so.

I'm thinking about puttin up my first blog/site on news since I check news through the whole day anyways so it would be easy for me to manage as my first site. I was wondering how much bandwidth i need? I have a Hostgator "Baby" account [url]and was wondering if this is enough? Eventually I wanna add more sites and I'm worried about the space/bandwidth .. is it hard moving site from 1 server to another? From what I've seen there is a folder for the websites in the ftp but I know that hostgator does the wordpress installing so I'm not sure if I just copy the folder and move it to a bigger server will it save the site/plugins/etc.. the way it was as if it was on hostgator.. hope that makes sense also, usually how long is it to move a site from one server to another?

to migrate a friends Blog from a pre-hosted service to his own domain and hosting. A domain is no problem for me to get but hosting seems to have changed a bit since I last purchased it all myself. Looks like all the old hosting companies I used to use have disappeared, and many are offering monster deals that I really don't need for a Blog.
What I'm looking for is something cheap and simple. It's a British Blog but I would prefer American hosting just due to the cheaper conversion rates. I have no real preferences, just enough to host a Blog and a few images. What I would like is a host that is easy to upgrade should the Blog grow and need more for it.

I'm currently on a 256mb RAM VPS plan with CPanel included at GoDaddy and hosting a wordpress blog which gets around 3000 uniques a day. My blog won't even last a day before the server crashes.
Now I've turned almost all plugins and turned off mail services and optimised MYSQL and HTTPD according to some articles on this forum, so I'll see how it turns out tomorrow. But I've still got a lot of functionality I want to add to the site.
It seems to be that this basic VPS plan is inadequate for my demands. Would anyone agree with this? (I got one opinion from another forum, saying it's definitely inadequate)

Currently I am hosted with Aquarius Storage, who are a fantastic company and I will be posting a review of them soon, but however that is not my point. Due to the recent tragedy of the HyperVM creator committing suicide, I will have to pay more because AQ is switching to Virtuozzo. Because I simply run a somewhat large, growing blog, paying 36$ per month is kind of outrageous.
To make things short, I need a good host, that was superb uptime, and is optimized for a WordPress blog that gets around ~5k uniques, ~30k pagehits, ~100k spider hits per month. (all figures are growing, of course), and for the site to be optimized to be speedy fast.

Well it occured to me just now that I think this might be a challenge: do you know any absolutely unbiased web hosting blog?
Without a doubt WHT is a truly unbiased discussion forum for the web hosting industry. However when it comes to blog and the luring big affiliate bucks more and more hosting companies are offering, I doubt there would be ANY truly unbiased 3rd party blogs / info sites on hosting industry.

I am hosting a Wordpress blog that currently uses 30GB of bandwidth per month. I want to introduce a forum as well so will probably need 50GB per month for now. But would like it expandable to 100GB in the future.
My requirements are:
No hidden CPU Limitations/No unreasonable resource usage restrictions.
Equipped to handle large surges of traffic.
No Overselling, able to use full allocation.
AND PROBABLY:
LiteSpeed - Does it really make a difference?
I have looked at MediaLayer, but they only provide upto 50GB transfer.
SecureServerTech looks good but uptime is only around 99%
At the moment Steadfast Networks looks the best.
My budget will be $20 for 50GB tranfer and $40 for 100GB of transfer, but this is not fixed and I would prefer quality over price.
Control panel does not mater but uptime does.

a Shared hosting should be enough for my wordpress blog site? It gets about 300 to 1000 hits per day.
Right now it's currently hosted on my loaded dedicated server and it's running very slow. Do you guys think I should order a shared hosting just for this blog alone?

If you've ever wanted to know how to build your own DC, the nice chaps at Pipe Networks in Australia have been blogging about their experiences building their own.
Quote:
The facilities staff at Pipe Networks is live-blogging its bid to build a new data center in just 60 days. The effort began back on April 16 with an empty room in Brisbane, Australia, and is entering the stretch run with a completion deadline of 9 am EST Friday (June 15). Pipe Networks has put the entire effort online, providing a window into the data center fit-out process with daily updates via Pipe Networks' DC3 blog, a live webcam of the data center in progress and a checklist of key items and their stage of completion.

I installed Wordpress on a local install of Apache so that I can play around with it and get my design down before I put it on the web. I can get to the admin and do everything, but I can't actually get to the site. I had an index.html in my htdocs directory, which was deleted, but now when I go to localhost, it just shows the directory.
