Websites
A server sized for the site you actually run.
Marketing sites, blogs and brochure sites spend most of their time idle and then need headroom for a traffic spike. The sizing below reflects that shape rather than a peak-load figure.
Recommended resource profile
A starting point, not a floor. The hints say what runs short first.
- vCPU
- 2 to 4
- Memory
- 4 to 8 GB
- Storage
- 80 GB NVMe and up
- Transfer
- 4 TB and up
Two is enough for most single sites.
PHP-FPM workers and a cache layer.
Media grows faster than code.
What this workload actually needs
Conditions that have to be true before it will work, whatever plan you pick.
Requirements
- A domain pointed at the server, or a domain registered in the same account.
- A TLS certificate. Certificates are not bundled with a virtual server plan.
- A web server and runtime you install yourself, or a control panel license that installs them.
Deployment considerations
- A control panel license makes routine work easier and consumes memory. Budget for it before choosing a plan size.
- Media-heavy sites outgrow storage before they outgrow CPU. Check the storage upgrade path for the region you pick.
- Backups are an option you enable, not something that exists by default.
What we do not do
- We do not install or maintain your CMS, its plugins or its themes.
