Hello, I own a 200,000 impressions a day proxy website using 4.5gb of bandwidth daily. I am currently hosting it on a reseller account. My hosting package is getting to its limit and although I could just upgrade the limits, I am more interested in moving it to a VPS or a dedicated server, since I will soon be starting a marketing campaign and am expecting the traffic to triple at the least, after a couple of months. However, I have no idea what hosting specifications should I look for in order for my site to run smoothly for my visitors and load quickly their pages. Could anyone advice me on what server specifications should I look for, to host between 300gb and 1 terabyte of monthly bandwidth usage while keeping the site as fast as possible? P.S. If you are going to recommend me a specific host or package, unless it is really professional please abstain from it. P.S.S. Contrary to most proxies, my site does require using MySQL (between 10-50gb of space), so could you also consider this factor in your recommendation.
Its better u go for a vps but make sure the person u buy ur vps from have many customers on 1 server or u wont get what u should get.. try to find one with Xen technology
