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.
I currently have one blog on wordpress (a sub domain like name.wordpress.com).
I want to purchase a domain and also move it to a paid host. I am not really technically knowledgeable to do this. Have visited a few step by step guides but find them quite confusing.
guide to do the move/transfer of the blog, more for a beginner? And by the way is it simple to do or actually more for a professional?
1. which web hosting provider is good for starting web hoster like me?
2. i need web host who support wordpress as blog software and web hosting must be fair price and my blog contain only 10mb size and bandwidth may 1gb/month intial.
2. can i use more than one blog in same domain, if ok in that each blog can have their own wordpress blog software i.e i can instal more than one wordprss software in same domain and web host?
3. if i accept free domain register from my web hoster, then if i transfer my blog after 5 months or 9 months to different web host provider can i use same domain or it is not possible?
I am hosting my wordpress blog on a web hosting that is not that reliable as it go down once in a while for few hours without any prior notification of sheduled maintenance.
However, i have a question. How do i migrate a wordpress blog with everything intact.. data, information, application, plugins, graphics and domain name?
I have a couple of blogs with domain names I already purchased through GoDaddy.com and I currently update them through Wordpress. I am looking to upgrade my blog accounts for CSS and I need a host that I can use to install Wordpress. I've heard great things about Host Gator and I just want to make sure it will work for me and see if anyone has suggestions about which plan I should use.
I've been hosting my membership website on one of my accounts on my reseller account at ResellerZoom and it's an absolute joke. The membership website is running on Wordpress 2.7.
The error message 'Internal Server Error' is CONSTANTLY coming up even though my membership website only has ONE member adding, editing and changing the site. This has been going on for 2 months now and there is NO WAY I can open my site to anyone else whilst this is going on.
I have the following plugins running and have tried it without ANY of these running and still had problems.
- Audio player (adds player for mp3 files)
- Contact form 7 by Takayuki Miyoshi
- Gravatar
- Limit posts plugin by [url]Blog Archives Limit Posts Plugin?
- Wishlist Member by [url]
- Wordpress Backup Plugin Il Filosofo WordPress Database Backup
The only response I've got from ResellerZoom is:
Resellers may not use more than 2% CPU daily, 3% memory daily, run more than 10 simultaneous processes per user, allow any process to run for longer than 30 CPU seconds, run any process that consumes more than 20% of available CPU at any time, or run any process that consumes more than 16 MB of memory. Databases are limited to 16 max user connections with a max query time of 8 seconds. Cron jobs must not execute more than once every 15 minutes and will be niced to 15 or greater.
So it looks like I need to move..
I just need a shared webhosting account perhaps? That will support MySQL connections with Wordpress!
Basically I installed wordpress in the same mysql as forum... but wordpress uses different username to connect to it. I wonder if there is any security risk associated with this, like would it be better to move out wordpress on to a different db? what about speed? what if my forum receives allot of mysql usage?
how much disk space and bandwidth would be needed to run a single Wordpress blog. I'm not a popular name, so I doubt I will have too many viewers besides my closest friends. In addition, I tend to make layouts which are a "teensy-bit" graphic-heavy :p
Is 2GB (disk space) and 30GB (bandwidth) supposedly enough?
with this being my first website goddady's website tonight or there blog site plan seem pretty good as I do not know how to build a professional looking website nor do I have a knowledge of HTML. Are there other hosts that offer better services such as these?
Also I would want to register with 1&1 as to register privately is free but with godaddy it costs around $15 and I've heard of godaddy stealing persons domains when they haven't even expired yet i.e. familyAlbum.com?
Is it allowed for instance to register my domain name with 1&1 and host my site with godaddy?
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?
I am an asp.net developer and want to host my blog. Which hosting provider will be ideal for asp.net blog? I have also seen that some of hosting providers provide blog hosting for blogengin.net or dasblog, should I go for them or should I go for the blog engine that I have built my self?
a while back I left some handmade comments in some computer related blogs not even close to spam but I put the keyword into the name field then....a few days later I found a .txt file named blogspam on my hosting account.. anybody had a similar experience...
I am looking for a cheap host that will allow adult orientated discussions and advertising. There wont be any actual porn on the site or at least not hosted on the account.
I was looking at a small orange and it looks like they allow light adult material but I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.
So I signed up for their $5.95 blog package this week. And since then, my site [url]has been down 3 times because of 500 server error. It takes them about an hour to fix it each time.
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'm currently using the Godaddy Wordpress Economy plan for 4.99/month but there's been a few downtimes during the past few days. So I was wondering if anyone can suggest another host that is suitable for a Wordpress Blog.
I'm currently hosting my wordpress blog with dreamhost (yuck). It recieves 2000 unique visitors a day, which amounts to about 10,000 page hits per day. Storage is around 2Gb at the moment and monthly usage is about 20Gb however both are likely to increase.
Please suggest what sort of hosting and a provider for me? Budget is pretty much anything (within reason). I would prefer not to spend more than $25 a month but can if the consensus is for something a little bigger. Reliability is important to me so I don't want the site to be down coz I was asleep when the server went down.
I am using aplus.net to host a WordPress blog and want to create more blogs.
Since aplus.net took 26 hours to restore my blog when somehow it was corrupted (no explanation on what they did), I have decided I need to host it someplace where I have full control.
I would be prepared to reinstall WordPress on my own. I also want to have the ability to control redirects. aplus provides a handful of very weak tools for managing the site.
I'm looking for a host that would allow me to manage multiple domains, and multiple instances of WordPress. I'm prepared to manage the MySQL db (if I have to, though I would prefer it if I had support for this).
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)"
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 am in the process of having a blog developed the following capabilities:
1. Google sitemap - will be generated and pings google after every post you make 2. Will make the links of the blog to be static links with permalinks. 3. Will add social bookmarking facility to posts( possibility to add to delicious, ****, furl, etc) 4. 'Email this post' feature 5. 'Print this post' feature 6. Show how many times a post has been viewed 7. Will install Google adsense plugin, if required. 8. Show 'Recently posted' posts in sidebar 9. Add RSS feeds to blog [Bloglines, Add to Google, My Yahoo, My MSN, Newsgator, etc] 10. Will set up the blog to ping important services when you write a post 11. Change header and color scheme to match your current site 12. Install plugin to automatically hyperlink URL's 13. Install contact form plugin for drop-in form in any new/existing post/page. 14. Install external links plugin that adds a class="external" to all outbound links. 15. Will install Google Analytics Plugin For WordPress 16. Install plugin that shows Next/Previous Post in same Category 17. Site unavailable plugin - useful when you want to make your site unavailable for maintenance. 18. Install wordpress database backup plugin 19. Wysiwyg Editor plugin - provides a much better editor than the one that comes with wordpress 20. Will install Title tag optimization plugin so that you can specify customized title for each post. 21. Will install Meta tags optimization plugin to enable you to specify customized META DESCRIPTION, META KEYWORDS AND OTHER META TAGS FOR each post.
registering the domain with the host or should this be done elsewhere? If it shoudl be doen elsewhere where should it be done?
