How many visitors will my account/server be able to handle? Print

  • 6322

Such questions are impossible to answer on the basis that all websites are different.

Let's consider two different types of website:

- A HTML/CSS website which is 200 KB in size.

- A WordPress PHP powered website which is 2 MB in size.

The WordPress website is going to require a lot more resources (CPU power, Bandwidth, etc) than one of the HTML/CSS website.

Even if we know the type of website, there are still too many potential variables that impact how many visitors an account/server will be able to handle.

As a general rule, make sure to cache as much content as possible, which will reduce the amount of resources required to serve the content. You can also off-load assets to third-parties. For example, instead of hosting large images locally, consider using a specialist service such as Imgur or Google Drive.

"Very happy"

I've been using Ethernet Servers since 2014, and they’ve always provided excellent service. I have many shared hosting accounts with them, and for the past five months, I’ve also been using their managed dedicated servers. What really stands out is their support. George, who I respectfully call Sir, is always there when I need help. He’s very knowledgeable and professional, and his assistance has made a big difference for me. If you’re looking for affordable and reliable web hosting, I highly recommend Ethernet Servers. They’ve been great to work with, and I’m very happy with their service. Thanks for everything!

"Service is excellent"

The service is excellent. George went above and beyond. In this day and age, it is very nice to have a real person that I can deal with rather than a chatbot or some nameless/faceless tech support department as is often the case at other hosting providers. Highly recommended.
