Hey everyone, I own and maintain a forum right now which gets around 30 000 + unique visitors a month. There are usually around 50 - 200 users on the forums at once being active. I am currently on shared hosting with the following specs: # Dual XEON (2 processor) # Dual AMD Opteron 246 @ 3.20 GHz 2+ GB Ram # Advanced Control Panel (Cpanel) # CentOS Linux # Redundant OC-3 / OC-12 Lines # 2 x 250 GB 10 RPM Ultra 320 SCSI Hard Drives. I have no clue on what kind of server/host I should be with, or when to upgrade. Could anyone give me some advice?
min 10 gigs and space min 500mb ... this isn't a request, i just need to know like what specs i would need for my forums to run smoothly.. and if i need like VPS, semi-dedicated, dedicated? when would I upgrade?
For a VPS, make sure you go with a 512 Dedicated RAM and a fair amount of CPU. If you are new to VPS, make sure it's "Fully Managed".
What is your budget we can set you up with something..
