Every user has their own needs. Therefore, this article will explain to you how to pick the most suitable VPS specifications and the right hosting provider. If you are not really clear about what VPS is, you can know more by clicking here.<\/span><\/p>

To pick the VPS plan which suits you the most, you must define these few requirements:<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Point 1: Your Target Customers\u2019 Location<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

You must know where the customer comes from. Are you selling products to local customers or worldwide? These two are quite different. When you or your target customers are too far away from the server data center, high latency is the experience of slow website loading. So, obviously, we want to aim for low latency (as low as possible). The general rule of thumb for achieving low latency is:<\/span><\/p>

  1. When locating customers from within the local area, please choose a hosting service provider that provides services in the same local area.<\/span><\/li>
  2. When facing global customers, please use Content Delivery Network to optimize the loading speed for users across the globe.<\/span><\/li><\/ol>

    We usually refer to delay as Ping. The higher the Ping, the more lagging the experience, and therefore the slower the website loading speed. A website that loads slowly puts your online business at a great disadvantage. Loading speed is one of the criteria whether if you are losing customers or not. 3 seconds website loading speed is the new benchmark.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Point 2: Estimated Daily Traffic to Your Website<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t

    It is easy to know and estimate the daily traffic of your website. Set up Google Analytics> “Audiences”> “Overview”> “Custom Date” (the date the website is established until today)<\/span><\/p>

    Users are encouraged to upgrade from shared hosting to VPS hosting when the:<\/span><\/p>

    –<\/span>\u00a0 <\/span>Website regularly receives more than 10,000 traffic per day.<\/span><\/p>

    –\u00a0 <\/span>Website takes longer to load.<\/span><\/p>

    So, how do we get the amount of 10,000 traffic per day?<\/span><\/p>

    First, you must understand that the server’s ability to handle large amounts of traffic depends on several factors related to server resource specifications. CPU, RAM, used disks, RAID, etc. They all make up a powerful server. These estimates come from our own data during server load and stress testing, and current customer usage benchmarks. When performing a server stress test, we load each server resource to a maximum capacity of 100% to observe how the server handles the load and how it expands during heavy usage.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Point 3: The Amount of Storage which you needed<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Websites that provide users with videos need more storage space. Websites with large databases will also require more storage space. Usually, storage capacity is not a big issue, because you can upgrade storage at any time. However, the type of storage does matter. There are currently two storage types on the market-HDD and SSD. Generally, SDD performs better than HDD in all aspects. SDD has a faster read and writes speed, lower failure rate and faster startup time.<\/span><\/p>

    Given these advantages and the technology used SSDs are more expensive than HDDs. But it depends on you whether you want quality over quantity or vice versa. If you are not a patient person, you can choose SSD VPS Hosting because of its fast read and write speed.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    Point 4: What Application\/Software Are You Using?<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t

    The type of software and applications running on the VPS will determine which operating system you should choose-Windows or Linux. As an example, if you are more familiar with the Plesk control panel, it is only available on Windows. cPanel can run on Windows and Linux.<\/span><\/p>

    Of course, the control panel is just a contributing factor. List all software and\/or applications to be run, including database management software, enterprise resource planning software, etc. After that, you should be able to determine which operating system is best for you.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
