WP Hosts that can handle 25-50k daily wp installs.
 

Looking for a host that has the mysql and goods to handle wordpress installs pushing 25-50k daily on the accounts. Will most likely take a couple of them.

Only hosts that are CONFIDENT they will have no issues handling this load with the package they quote me only please.

These can be Virtuals, or Dedicated, I'm not picky, I just need it to be able to handle busy wordpress installs (and continually adding more, either by new accounts/packages or upgrades)

The sites are fairly 'db intensive'.

Also no need for any of the 'unlimitted bw, unlimitted space' etc type deals, I just don't have the time for marketing gimics nor bullshit. I will only work with reputable, known companies.

any decent host can handle wp sites pushing that much in traffic per day.

am i reading this right?

or are you talking 25-50k installs daily?

We host quite a few celebrity blogs, www.RealityCheckNetwork.com -- feel free to contact me on ICQ so we can discuss an in depth solution.

Apparently not all decent hosts can handle 25k uniques (75-90k loads) a day WP site. Once it hits about 15-20k a day you can see issues at many places.

Unfortunately, I'm having this problem right now and I refuse to jump to a 400-500 dollar a month dedicated, so I can work on a site (account) that has 5k (over estimate) a day worth of wp hits and is crumbling to the ground on every page load.

have you installed wp-super-cache?

You refuse to pay for the hardware necessary to host your traffic?
WP is a well known resource hog.

NatNet has a great deal going on!

Way to pay attention. If you think I should pay 400 bucks for a dedicated because wordpress needs it for 5k hits a day then Im not sure what to say in response to that.

Naturally, yep.

I second that, there are a few cache modules for WP that will produce amazing results. Had to install it on a few mainstream sites that were getting frontpage on digg, helped tremendously!

It eliminates the DB connection all together for those cached pages.

something was/is wrong with it then. I had a couple 50K/day wp sites running perfectly fine on mid-road VPS.

Maybe you should try VPS like this
http://www.hostgator.com/vps-hosting/

you get virtually a managed dedicated server but for a lower price

sounds like you need an admin that knows what they are doing (tweaking wise)

Just to get this out there as well. This isn't just a simple hosting issue, if it was just one 35k site, I'd toss it on a dedicated and forget about it. But this is a network of blogs (10 2-3k a day) that I have spaced out. So I do basically need a 'high end virtual' or even semi dedi that will handle the loads.

It seems the larger traffic single ones, (25k+) are less strain then a handful of them equaling that traffic.

something is wrong man. that is very easy load the cheapest dedi should handle. i have many like that myself.

strange... i have few blogs that are over 10k uniqs daily at webair on same server without any problem or lag or db crash..

Last time I checked, using wordpress with SEO urls (title but no numeric id) incurs a performance penalty that worsens with post count. Probably makes all the difference when you have a stock MySql configuration and shared resources.

In my opinion, the techs there are some of the best in the biz, but Ive got nothing for clues from any of them except 'get more ram' and 'thats wordpress for you'. (this is on an account that has maybe 4-5k a day, and has used 12gb of bw this month so far, maybe .025 of its monthly).

Makes sense, I've killed a 75 dollar VPS with a 1k a day blog, and 3k scruff traffic from feeder shit. (if there is even that much traffic on them).

So yeah, something is wrong.

That really doesn't add up. That is not a lot of traffic for a wordpress blog.

I've used http://www.slhost.com/vps-hosting for a decent VPS setup in the past, starts at a low $25 per month.

Pacificrack have dedicated boxes from $99 per month.

Whatever host you are at must not know what they are doing bro. I have a blog network larger than what you mentioned on 1 dedicated server at techiemedia and it runs perfectly. Never any issues at all. It really sounds like your host doesn't know how to tweak a server very well.:2 cents::2 cents:

Why not pay a dedicated server?

If you say you can build sites and blogs to push that much so easily, then you should have no problem to pay a serious dedicated server...

check your current sites for database issues. clean up them and see what happens. Anyway, you can get more than decent dedicated servers for $150 and you'll save the headaches

not dissing you man. i respect you skills. but what shit ass host you at?

i have dreamhost accounts not kidding doing that no probs.

it all depends on WHAT SCRIPTS he is using on his WP blogs.
He said its all 'db intensive'.

ONE WP BLOG is not the same as ANOTHER WP BLOG.

Heres a link you should look at

thanks fris. you open in the future for high traffic wp tweaks?

Good luck with the hunt

That's fine and good, its a good starting point but one size doesn't fit all. You have to adjust my.cnf according to what you are doing. One script doing 100k maybe fine with that config and another site doing 10k could crash hourly.

yes i was going to say the same thing, there's a couple of scripts about that advise on modifying my.cnf.

here's one http://blog.mysqltuner.com/ you need to run it for 24-48 hours before it can give suggestions.

100k a day in WP traffic is dedicated server territory.

if your interested in some new dedicated boxes hit me up will give you a box for free for a few days to test it out.

Now I know your lying... i've got the e-mails from Dreamhost for using excessive resources and I was barely pushing 1K a day on some of my sites at that time.

They oversell their boxes so bad, if you have any kind of serious traffic, you'll crumble the server. :2 cents:

egg shells

everyone acts like this guy just put his first site online yesterday and has no clue what he wants or why.

Hello,

Sorry for a delayed response but I wanted to speak with our Systems Administrators before making a suggestion here. They recommended our Dell Cx-1950-Woodcrest server as the minimum baseline for the requirements you have posted and that can be seen on the Caro.Net Closeouts Page and starts at $229/mo.

In addition, while the service was still new with us (at least for the first couple of months or so) they recommended that you add in our Proactive Level One Managed Services.

Anyway hit me up directly and I will be happy to discuss all of the options with you and if need we can even do a conference call with one of the Systems Administrators to discuss the requirements further.

Good luck with your search and Happy Holidays. :thumbsup

Most people on this board have no clue about mysql and just talk out of their asses.
