Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Hello Steven,

Thank you for reaching out. Given your budget and requirements, I would recommend considering a Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting plan. This would provide you with more dedicated resources, better performance, and the ability to handle the traffic of your popular website more effectively. Providers like Fasthosts, as mentioned in a previous message, offer VPS plans that may suit your needs well.

Additionally, you might want to explore managed WordPress hosting services, as they are optimized for WordPress sites and typically offer good performance and reliability. Providers like WP Engine, SiteGround, or Bluehost can be considered.

Remember to review the specific features and pricing of each hosting option to find the one that aligns best with your requirements and budget. (Study abroad) (Mechanical engineering) (Canada PR) (PMP Exam Prep)

if you facing any error in your hosting kindly contact the https://www.leasedlayer.com/ I would like to recommend this company because I have hosted my company site with this service provider I am running my site in a smooth way and their customer support is marvelous and good pricing also so that u can get better page speed which is more import to SEO

had spikes of 1M visits a day. Happend over 2013 and 2014. 
Again, that is a website that consumes almost nothing of resources, just 4-5 pure HTML pages getting 6 lines from database.

You're telling me that you are paying $10 a month for a site that spikes at 1 Million visits a day?

What's the max client on the server?

1M = 1million.

well, to be stricly fair, it depends on how many resources we web consumes. 
That 1M visits in a day were to a website with just 5 pages of pure HTML.

The best to do here is to contact some that specializes in web hosting/servers performance and match the needs of Steven's website.

Gaston - Is that  1M 1 Million or 1 Thousand?

He needs to cope with 10 Thousand and for that, he will need his own server.

Hello Steven,

I personally recommend banahosting, its shared hosting (plan of ~10 usd) really worked for me. Having nearly houndred websites and sometimes some sites with spikes of 1M visits in a day.
Here its website: banahosting.com, if you'd like my referral link.
Also its support is really awesome, had several problems, from hacks, to too many visits/active users online. Always with a response within a few hours.

If you need more power, i'd recommend linoVPS, i've know them as the big hoting behind banahosting, the problem there is that you need some VPS expertise or have to hire someone to configure the hosting.

Hope I've helped.
Best luck.
GR.

Hi Stephen

Honestly, if you are getting 1-10k a day then being on a shared server is really not ideal. You are at the mercy of all the other sites on that server and when they start chewing up the bandwidth you are really going to see a slowdown in performance.

I use Fasthosts and pay them £94 a month for my VPS which I run 5 websites on. It's reasonably easy to understand the Plesk interface and I can re-start it ay any time and the price includes two backups per month.

I'm sure there are similar deals out there with other providers I just wanted to give you an idea of what I had done. Maybe think about a full SSL when you move as well if you don't already have one.

This is the spec:
vCPUs:2
vCPUsMemory:8GB
System disk:40GB
Storage disk:40 GB
