    I have website which provides free mobile stuff. Site is full of downloadable contents. In situations of too many simultaneous
    request from visitors, my visitors face either broken download or page unavailable.
    So i decided to share server load into two servers.
    Now i purchased two hosting accounts from different companies and uploded all data on both servers. Now i have one website name and two different dedicated IPs. Now problem is that i want to share load between two servers. If there are two simultaneous requests it should be handled one by server A and second by server B.
    I dont have enough knowledge to configure load balancing between two servers for my site.
    Kindly write down complete procedure.
    Thanks in advance.

    There are many many more things you can do before you start load balancing.

    If you are running out of connections try moving all of your images to the other host. This will take the load of your main webserver down considerably. If the image servers load is too high, create a second image server and randomize the src using php.

    Try hosting some of your downloadable content on the other servers too.

    Hope this helps :)
