So I bring shared hosting services for my clients. I currently have some HDD disk and we are having some problems from time to time with the I/O.
I want to know a Hosting provider that bring the most Nve Disk space for $250 budget. 128GB of Ram would be nice to have, some 16 cores also.
I want to host like 400 simple accounts
Hi, I'm looking to bring my rented /32 v6 IP space onto a datacenter (routed, announced by their network since I don't have an ASN) located in Los Angeles. I was using Vultr for over a year, but they kicked me off for excessive bandwidth usage... So I need a provider with unmetered bandwidth, either 4 (4 core) servers with 1 GBPS unmetered ports, or a single server with 16 cores or higher and a 5 GBPS+ unmetered port (with my prefixes routed to them, I can try to do the BGP sessions myself if necessary). If you can recommend a provider who can do this for me, let me know. Please be aware that I will be using a lot of bandwidth 24/7, with a lot of open connections. Bare metal/dedicated servers are fine. $500-$600/mo budget, preferably less. We can test it out for a day (I can pay a little in advance which can be kept it even if it doesn't work out) if it's necessary to check if it'll put too much stress on their edge router.
So far I've contacted several providers on bgp.services trying to find someone who can do this, but the ones that have replied so far aren't in my preferred region and are pretty expensive. I also posted on reddit, and they told me to post here.
Hello,
I don't know if its right category to ask such question, please pardon me if i am at wrong place.
We want to host site on https://vsys.host as per their claim on DMCA free hosting. I didn't find much reviews about this Hosting provider so wanted to ask if this provider is legitmate and should i pay them to rent the dedicated server?
Regards.
Hello everyone,
I am looking for a new server for my web hosting company and really interested in Vultr HF 12cores CPU vs Vultr Bare Metal 8cores/16 threads @3.7GHZ.
I have always used their VPS and have been happy with it so far, from RAM/ storage + internet speed pov, it seems Vultr Bare metal provides better value compared to their HF lineup.
Would 8 cores dedicated CPU outperformance a 12 cores vcpu? for web hosting? Assuming both hosting the same amount/ type of wordpress site?
Anyone have experience with this?
Thanks everyone.
Not sure if this is the right category.. I want to know what makes a server speedy. My issue is, I tried about 6 servers the last 6 months.
Reseller Hostmantis (5$ a month)
VPS cloudcone 10 core 16 GB ram (50$) a month + cpanel (15$) + litespeed (30$) a month
VPS from a dutch guy, 8 core, 16GB ram, directadmin (70 a month)
Cloudcone VPS: 10 cores, 60GB ram, Cpanel + litespeed = like 70 a month).
Wpprovider (claims to have to fastest dutch hosting): 25,- a month.
Neostrada magento hosting (6 core, 8GB ram, cpanel = 20,- a month)
Believe it or not, but the freaking 5$ per month SHARED (!!!!) RESELLER (!!!!!) is the fastest of them all. And I really don't understand how that is possible. Is there anybody who can explain to me what makes a server fast? First I thought it was litespeed, so i bought a litespeed license for by VPS'ses. Then I thought it was the lack of RAM, so i went to Contabo with 60 freaking GB of ram WITH litespeed. And even that is slower if I 1:1 compare it with a 100% duplicated site on that Hostmantis reseller package...
Then a guy from Asia who tried to improve the pagespeed for a webshop copied the site to his dedicated server and the results were INSANELY fast. I asked him his config and he said:
2 X Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650
32 Cores
64 GB ram
2 X SSD Drive
He said he didn't had Litespeed, only Memcache installed.
Is there anybody who can tell me what makes a server fast? Is it the RAM? the CPU? The managing? The location? The LITEspeed/Memcached/Redis? And when does it make sense to get a Dedicated server instead of a VPS?
About me: As side job I build websites. Most of them very easy, 3 page wordpress sites with no visitors. I host about 60. They don't really care about speed, cause they are happy if there are There are some bigger clients (3 with a woocommerce webshop, 1 with a magento webshop) for which speed IS important.
What I would like is
THE FASTEST Server possible for my amount
At least 500GB SSD storage
Managed
Backups remotely (and something like JEtbackup)
Softacalous
Cpanel + WHM (100 accounts)
Budget: Under like 180$ for all (if that is anyway possible).
Hi everyone,
I have dedicated server with cloudlinux, specs:
Intel Xeon E3-1230 v5 Quad-Core
8GB DDR4 SDRAM
2 x SSD (+240 GB SSD) (+Software RAID 1)
I wanna use it for shared hosting with whmcs. I need recommendation, about the best resources limit for 3 hosting plans with setting up prices too?
Example:
Plan1: 10GB,
Plan2: 20GB,
Plan3: 35GB storage.
I know most of the regular small websites are no more than 1 or 2GB, but there are people that use a lot of storage too, due to not cleaning their emails ...etc.
How many accounts i can host on it? I am not planning on having 2000 accounts on it either
Thanks!
Hello!
I work at a nonprofit (church) with middle schoolers. Myself and some volunteers are temporarily running a small Minecraft server for the kids in our community during this time of social distancing, and they love it! It is amazing how video games have brought them together while they are stuck at home. Sometimes, we more than 45 kids on during a weekend event. Nothing is monetized (obviously), and the server is free to access for any kid in our community.
Unfortunately, our budget is not particularly high, and we are constantly running up against resource limitations (it seems we are either out of CPU or RAM all the time 😂. Do you guys know any hosting companies who might partner with us/offer a discount on their services? A dedicated host would be ideal, but I know those are much more expensive. Our current budget is ~$25 a month.
Thanks for any recommendations!
Respectfully,
Joshua
we are currently running local online class with average brandwidth of <1TB per month. Our server uses open source class software.
unfortunately our network authority blocked all VOIPs and WebRTC connections. So we are planning to buy server either dedicated or VPS to run our own VPN. what hosting do you suggest?
As VPN uses very little space even 1gb ram would suffice with 10-20gb HDD.
we were planning to go for some VPS but our problem is network speed. which we think we require dedicated network speed. what you guys suggest?
we have over 90 concurrent students.
budget is low
Host recommendations needed. Let me start by saying, THANKS in advance for your replies.
I own a (very) small US-based business and my website/email hosting has been with LiquidWeb since they acquired my previous host WiredTree.
LiquidWeb ignored a support ticket yesterday and as my yearly payment comes due next week I thought I probably owe it to myself to at least evaluate my options before it renews.
My biggest priority is knowing I have good managed support when I need it. Problem is, having support tickets linger in the cue for a day or so until I call/chat them and ask when it's going to get looked at has been a pretty constant problem since day one. And it's not like I'm inundating them with support tickets either. My website development has been on hold the past couple years due to personal reasons, so this might be the first support ticket I've even opened this year other than asking them to whitelist an IP because their automated process for that doesn't work.
Looks like I'm paying about $2,400/year for a Cloud Dedicated server and $800/year for a second smaller plan (old WiredTree VPS plan).
The main server appears to be 8 core (Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1271 v3 @ 3.60GHz) with a 24/900/5 config (I think). I'm not currently taxing the box at all; it's a total overkill in all regards. One downside to LiquidWeb is at the time I moved this server from a VPS to this plan I was kind of forced into a much, much higher plan than I really needed because every option in between had the same limited disk space my VPS had and the only reason I needed to upgrade was that I was pushing disk limits.
As such, being able to scale up or down in the future without having to make huge jumps is also important.
As of right now, the second (VPS) server could easily be absorbed by the first. I actually intended to do that a year ago when my bill came due but then life got in the way and it fell through the cracks.
Both my boxes are managed CentOS/WHM/cPanel with Root access. I did not migrate away from cPanel when the prices went up. If there's something legitimately better than cPanel I'm happy to evaluate it, but until then it's the devil I know.
Prior to WiredTree/LiquidWeb I had 2 VPS plans at ServInt. Originally ServInt was excellent... until they weren't. But even after they outsourced their support overseas, I really still didn't have support issues. I left ServInt because my boxes were aging badly and all signs said the company was in trouble. I will also say my brief experience with WiredTree support before they got bought out was amazing.
Before ServInt I was with Inmotion Hosting (originally shared hosting then a VPS albeit without Root access). I will say I have no desire to work with any host that sells shared plans again.
As far as budget is concerned, I can afford what I'm currently paying. Yes I'd love to be paying less although that's not what's driving this search. If I stay with LiquidWeb, I'll migrate the VPS into the Cloud Dedicated and downsize to $2,400/year. If I'm paying less elsewhere, I expect it's because I downsized the Cloud Dedicated server's specs.
When I left ServInt for WiredTree, recommendations from this site caused me to have a short list of WiredTree, KnownHost, FutureHosting and LiquidWeb. I've seen recent recommendations in other threads for KnownHost and BigScoots, so that's where my current short list begins. Any recommendations are appreciated.
I know when you buy a dedicated server it is always possible that the disk fail.
Now my question does it make sense that I ask the provider to run a test on my server disk to make sure the disk is in good health?
I mean during my service or before I buy?
Hi there everyone,
I currently have a VPS that is hosting approximately 50 cPanel accounts (WordPress sites), and I want to upgrade to a dedicated to host more accounts/WordPress sites.
My question is, what should I focus on: Higher clock speed, or lower clock speed but more cores?
Specifically:
1. Intel Xeon E3-1240 V6 (3.70GHz 8MB Cache) w 32GB DDR4 RAM [4 cores]
or
2. 2x Intel Xeon E5-2640 (2.50GHz 15MB Cache) w 32GB DDR3 RAM [2x8 = 16 cores]
I can't figure it out. The more I Google it, the more confused I get.
Or should I just get a second VPS? The stats for my current VPS is 6 cores @ 2.60 gHz.
Thanks in advance!
PS. Some of the WordPress sites have minimal traffic if any at all, and some have 5k unique visitors per day. Cloudflare and caching is being used on all of them.
