View 14 Replies View RelatedAfter a few threads on Web Hosting Talk, I have decided to go with Magento eCommerce CMS because it is powerful and I like it
The only thing I am looking for is a host that will support it and that will let me either upgrade to a VPS, or straight to a Dedicated Server (or maybe even a co-location).
Because I am a startup business, the costs need to be low (yes, I know good hosting doesn't come cheap and I know I need to put into consideration SSL).
1 major thing. It NEEDS to be in the UK.
I was chatting to one of Rackspace UKs live help support people and they priced their entry level server at "ΓΒ£255 - ΓΒ£355 per month", which being a startup is a bit of a hefty price.
So, how do you think I should start? Shared, VPS or straight to dedicated?
Also, what UK hosts do you recommend?
an affordable web hosting (around $20 monthly) which offers support for MagentoCommerce and also has reseller hosting. I am very interested in trying MediaTemple Grid service but apart from that they don't offer reseller hosting.

I tried to install Magento on my basic Goddady Hosting but it failed because the zend and PHP version is too hold.
I tried as well to install on one of my other customer hosting (1and1.fr)
And after a long time of uploading all the files and configuring the .htaccess files, It failed when I was on the almost last step : database information.
So I finally found a better hosting solution for Magento which works good.
This is the link for the tutorial how to set up your Magento Store

Wich is the most adequate hosting plan to install a Magento E-Commerce Online Store with:
Number of products: 100 to 300
Number os Visitor / Moth: 10.000 to 80.000
I will need a Shared Accout, VPS, or Dedicated Server?
I need a hosting company that hosts multiple proxy websites with cheapest rate on the market and with better bandwidth.

View 14 Replies View RelatedWhat are the most important things to look for in a hosting company?
Cost?
Network Speed?
Uptime?
Quality hardware?
Quality Support?
Fast Support?
Redundancy?
Most people would say all of above right? Well, if you had to stack each of the above in order of importance, where would you put cost at? Is it at the top for you or at the bottom? If I had to rate each of them it would look something like this:
Uptime
Network Speed and reliability
Redundancy of power, bandwidth, cooling
Reputable Tier 1 carriers of bandwidth
Quality Support
Fast Support
Quality hardware
Cost
The problem is that I see many people on WHT acting like Cost if the #1 factor in determining a host. And when you let cost be your #1 determining factor, you will be usually sacrificing on some or all of the other factors that you should be looking at. The higher up the list you put cost in deciding where to host, the more you will sacrifice quality in these other important areas.
"But", you say, "I see many quality companies offering cheap pricing. Shouldn't I choose to go with them?" Consider this, hosting companies like any other business need to be able to make a profit. Sale prices are great but there are reasons for sale prices and you need to consider these reasons when choosing to buy a cheap server. Some common reasons for selling servers for extremely cheap are;
- The hardware is used and old and the hosting company is just looking get something for it. ANYTHING!
- They have an excess of inventory for one reason or another that they need to get rid of.
- They buy their servers used on Ebay and can therefore afford to sell them cheap.
- The cheap server is merely a loss leader used to bring business in order to sell other products and services at full price but is not a regular price that you can expect from this company.
- The company is new and is looking to attract prospective clients on price alone and is dropping the price just to get their client base increased quickly.
There are companies selling servers on WHT who fall into each of these categories so you need to think about this when you make a decision for who to go with. The common denominator with the above list is simple... It is Unsustainable! Not one of the reasons listed above can be sustained for a long period of time.
If you can get a good deal on a server with a solid company, and there are many on WHT that are great companies who have great deals on servers at times, then that is wonderful. But do not expect that you will be able to get insanely cheap pricing on a regular basis from this company and don't be surprised when you want another server if the price is significantly higher. Every hosting company has certain costs that are unavoidable:
- Rent
- Power
- Bandwidth
- Payroll
- Employee Benefits
- Server Hardware Costs
- Software Licensing
- Marketing and Advertising
- Maintenance Contracts
- Network Equipment
- Infrastructure Replacement (a/c's, generators, UPS units, etc.)
- Other Utilities
The point in bringing all of this up is that if you plan on finding a hosting company that you can stay with for the long haul, you need to look at their regular pricing for retail servers and for reselling servers. Cheap prices are great, but no business can stay in business if they only offer cheap pricing. And if a hosting company is only attracting you by their cheap pricing, then it shows that they are most likely weak when it comes to the other essential factors mentioned above that need to be considered. Any hosting company selling servers for under $80 per month for instance is loosing money in some way. Eventually, the price will be raised to cover those costs (like at LT this year) and then you are left to make up that difference.
As with most things in life, good quality cannot be sold cheap, and that which is cheap is usually not good quality.

View 14 Replies View RelatedCan we see some hosts come forward, whom support Magento and they have servers in any part of Europe? (I already know about the wiki Magento-Hosts list but I do not think that list can keep itself up to date). So including that list but not limited to. Let's see our own list now.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are building a new shopping cart for our ecommerce site and plan to use magento. As I understand it magneto is and incredible cart but also a resource hog that doesnt work well with $10-20 a month shared hosting.
We have narrowed it down to two options.
The $100 a month plan from crucial. Which is still shared but it is limited. I think they split the server below into ten virtual servers and each virtual server has 5 users. I like them because they seem to be interested in optimizing the server environment for use with magento .
[url]Quad Core Intel Xeon Harpertown 3.0 GHz
16 GB fully buffered DDR-2 RAM
Fully redundant RAID-10 disk array
1000 Mbps network port uplink switch
The other option is a fully dedicated server from the planet. . The people building our site recommend this option because it is dedicated.
They have a dedicated sever with the specs below for $147 with the promo code DX

Package name- Dual Xeon 2.8 - IDE
Harddrive-2 x 80 GB IDE/SATA HDD
RAM-2 GB

I'm running a single Magento website with only around 150 products, and very low traffic, on a VPS with 2 Cores and 4GB of ram. However I am getting constant warning emails about high Apache Memory usage and High CPU usage.
The server and site were working fine, however since the server failed (Power cut on upgrade at the hosts end) and we rebuilt the website I'm getting these warnings, my host said it is just the website and the server needed upgrading... to which I did (server was a 1 core 2GB ram server). However since I've upgraded I'm still getting these warning emails.
Here is the latest one: URL...
Code:
4951 apache 20 0 441m 137m 6556 S 0.0 3.6 2:28.77 httpd

I'm really new to VPS's and plesk so I'm wondering what I can do to try and track down what is causing these high usage as I'm 100% certain the site was fine before. The server has default build both before and after the fail.
Server Information:
OSCentOS 6.5 (Final)
Panel version11.5.30 Update #47
2 Cores
4GB Ram
Are there any tools within plesk that I can use to see what is causing these issues? It's making the website load extremely slow.
When I try to install Magento 1.9.1.1 I get the error message;Error: Installation of magento at http://mydomain.com/ failed. Non-zero exit status returned by script.Can't seem to get any more information into what might be causing this issue...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to install a magento on Plesk Version 12.0.18 Update #19 / CentOS Linux 7.0.1406 (Core).
Plesk is reporting that it cant install magento because php-mcrypt is missing. So I tried the following:
Code:

2) yum update
3) yum install php-mcrypt

What can i do to install mcrypt without breaking other dependencies ?
I used the search function. Im USING UBUNTU NOT CENTOS!
I set up an virtual ubuntu Server on a Proxmox Root. I used the .iso from plesk.
Now when i tried to start installing magento, there is the message, that there is no mcrypt installed.
I installed it using php5-mcrypt its done and i can see the folders and also te mcrypt.so and so on.
When i tried to install atomic there is the message that redhead is not available at /etc/readhead...
Person with the best info and most helpful for me (in my opinion) gets $10US via paypal
So I'm making one of those myspace resources websites in the hopes to get the odd weekly amount from advertising (yahoo/google ads) etc. Now before you jump on the "Oh boy, not another myspace website!", this site is totally different, but the same kinda thing applies.
Now, of course If I want to earn a decent amount on say 10000+ uniques a day I'm going to need a bit of bandwidth. The site itself isn't bandwidth heavy but I'd like to plan for the future.
Anyway, so I was looking at Godaddy and well
Economy Plan:
5 GB Space 250 GB Transfer
500 Email Accounts FREE! Software
10 MySQL Databases 50 Email Forwards
Forums, Blogging, Photo Galleries No ads
Now, I only need 1gb space tops, but 250GB BANDWIDTH? Holy crap, I haven't seen that for that price ever?
3.95 a month? That's insane.
Is it really too good to be true? What should I be looking at? I just need it on one domain and that's fine because I'd want its own hosting package for each domain as I slowly develop more websites.
Can anyone please shed light for me and give me some general info on the path I should take.
Note: I don't want hosting packages where, if you do go over the monthly bandwidth (God Forbid at 250gb!!) I don't want to be charged an exorbinent amount. Just the "Bandwidh Exceeded" message would suffice.
Anyway, I look foward to some great responses.
