    Hi, i am getting around 2500-3000 uniques a day to my wordpress blog, but my problem is, the site goes down at some times when there is a heavy load on the server. and its hosted at dreamhost. i would like to advertise it more and get more traffic, but that would be a waste of money since it will crash either way. anyone knows what kind of a dedicated host will handle that?:)

    Can be easily done with a decent vps.

    Good mysql optimization, php caching, object caching needed. You pages will fly if followed!

    A VPS would be sufficient for your blog. You will get Dedicated amount of resources with the vps, root access, privacy and isolation. It would also give you more reliability and room to expand.

    I run a VPS with 3 sites on it, one of them getting 5k visitors a day with no problems. I really like Servint because of their tech support. Also, they just upgraded bandwidth and storage for each of their VPS packages. I was getting 300GB bandwidth with 10G of space, but now I have 500GB bandwidth with 15GB space for $49/month....

    Hi there, with a dedicated server, you shouldn't be experiencing any problems like you are with that amount of traffic.

    I have a much better solution for you too, please let me know if I can talk to you about it. Thanks,

    I am managing websites that are getting over 25,000 uniques a day. You have to go for a dedicated server and optimize the Mysql/Apache usage, you will be all fine. PM me if you are interested, we could talk further.

    It really depends on the application you are running in the server and the server hardware. You could add me on messenger/PM me so that I could advise you.
