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.
View 11 RepliesI 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.
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).
Just logged in to Spam Karma 2 (for wordpress) and noticed this message inside ht e2nd chance Captcha Check of Spam Karma 2:
Your install of PHP seems to be missing the GD library (or a more recent version is needed). You should ask your host to update the GD module for PHP and disable the Captcha module until then.
Can we get our server management company to install this? More importantly, wanted to know the risk of installing the GD library. It's not going to cause any critical things to break is it?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm configuring a website for a client who has moved their web hosting to downtownhost, but is keeping their email hosting with their current provider. They do not want to configure an MX entry on DTH to autoforward email back to their current provider because they don't want their email to pass through DTH.
In order to do this, do I keep the nameserver entries on the current provider the same, and configure an http redirect to point to DTH? Or is there something else I should configure on the current provider?

a customers wordpress blog is taking all the cpu on the server, i can't figure out what the issue here is... i've tried many my.cnf's and i can verify that it uses the my.cnf file.. so that hasn't helped.. i can only mv index.php test.php for now until i could figure out why all these hits cause lag. any recommendations?
For some reason, one of my clients wordpress blog is using 100% cpu on a php process per page load. To clarify, the first time you load the page it is very slow, and uses 100% cpu for the PHP process and then if you reload the page (while it is going slow) it loads very fast. After that is done the normal PHP usage per page load is roughly 1-4% if that.
I'm guessing something in the coding is looping, but I am unsure. What I do know is 100% cpu usage for one page view initially is insane.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix/resolve this issue?
I don't have Linux or whatever I just got Windows XP or Vista.
I'm not an expert at creating websites, I find it difficult. I don't want to have to install databases or msyql manually, I just don't have a clue and would rather leave it.
I just know how to use WordPress and I want a WordPress hosted site.
I would like to know if there are any sites similiar to this:
[url]
Which includes stuff like cPanel & Fantastico
[url]
Fantastico looks brilliant as I can simply install WordPress in a few clicks without having to mess with FTP and database/msqyl etc.
Does anyone know any reccomended sites that use Fantastico for Windows Vista which I can install WordPress easily?
(I don't want to use '3ix' as I have seen ALOT of negative reviews)
I need server for database only,is there any suggestion with budget$70-$80/month?
My current server is
X3220 @ 2.40GHz
2GB
My site stats
73,000 ++ Posts /Articles
320.000 ++ Comments
Visitors 9000 - 11000 daily and growing
I got 500-600 comments/articles reply everyday.
My server crash recently with this stats.I have try all way how to optimize wordpress with install eAccelator, super wp cache and wasting my money for "expert wordpress" but all result is zero, server still get high load.
This is my first time and I don't know if this will work to separate the database server from the main server, but I want to try it.
I am using version 2.3.1 on one site which I need to import over to wordpress.com However, a long time go the link to the back up options page disappeared and even upgrading does not help to retrieve it.
My problem being that over at the main site you need a WordPress WXR file to import with from a self hosted site. As mentioned that is not an option and I must have it imported somehow. I cannot also access the plugins page.
If i like to put 30 wordpress blogs on a vps no high traffic blogs will be between 50-250 uniques per day per blog and with space to grow if some blogs start attract good traffic

you recommend for this kind of usage?

I had no problem installing Wordpress Mu with iPower. Unfortunately iPower really sucks for performance (I have paid one full year though so I have to keep them ).
So I have moved to Hostgator but I'm struggling: there are many things that need to be done to be able to install it and I can't even do it myself only the admin can.
At the moment I'm still waiting.
So I'm looking for another webhosting service again - though I will stay with hostgator because of their outstanding support service - just for being able to install Wordpress Mu.
I'm running a wordpress site and am trying to get the memcached cache to expire (since the default is never).

View 7 Replies View RelatedI would really like to be able to edit and customize wordpress templates but apparently need a server that will support wordpress or something so I can upload and test. But currently I can not really afford any premium hosting... has anyone got any ideas if there is anything else I can do? or would anyone possibly be able to offer a small amount of space that I could use temporarily until I can afford to purchase a hosting account?
View 9 Replies View RelatedPlease recommend me reliable wordpress hosting with fully functionality.
Low budget,5GB webspace and 5GB bandwidth will be enough.
If it's possible reccuring billing from month to month would be best deal,because of low budget.
Which host supports WordPress MU blogs the best? (preferably shared).
View 11 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if you can tell me something about your experience with a host/server in a different country or overseas.
My webpage will be mostly frequented by Australians.
What do you think is the advantage and the disadvantage of having a host in your own country and having one overseas?
I'm thinking about stability, traffic speed, peak hours in different time zones, customer service, ....
What are your experiences?
I was with Blue Host and their support and service was pretty bad. Servers going down all the time, and chat support was terrible. Then I moved to Host Monster and received the same kind of service/support. I later then figured out that Blue Host and Host Monster is runned by the same people. For example, I opened up a tech support ticket with Host Monster and then they replied signing their signature with Blue Host. So I got the same service: terrible tech support and servers kept going down. Now I'm looking for a new web hosting. I a few people here gave Host Gator some good reviews. I hope Host Gator is not run be the same people that runs Blue Host and Host Monster.

This is for just a couple of simple domains and sites to be hosted.

Is it allowed for instance to register my domain name with 1&1 and host my site with godaddy?
