Business Hostgator painfully slow, any good VPS cPanel hosts that are good that aren't dedicated? - GoFuckYourself.com

johnnyloadproductions · 06-07-2015, 01:54 AM

I've had a VPS account with hostgator going on 4+ years and all kinds of things have happened to sites on there. Some sites get corrupted files while some lose files altogether. This has mostly happened after Brent Oxley jumped ship and it went into new ownership.
On top of that it is painfully slow, each click seems to take 4-5 seconds to load a simple wordpress page.

Any hosts that are reasonably fast with the same rates as hostgator?
Maybe I'll go through the process of hosting more sites on one droplet on digital ocean and adult friendly sites like vultr.
Still cPanel is fast and easy.

Try DigitalOcean! :P

See you sig!
Peace!

- now the real shit -
dont get anything with one core.

I was with DreamHost for 7 years...
Thank god I moved to a server server with more than 1 core (8 now)...

fuck those overselling shits... only if u can't pay more... :/

Digital Ocean + CPanel is one option.

Here's a how to Install CPanel on a Digital Ocean droplet running Centos..

Because Digital Ocean is all SSD you can, for a small processor sacrifice, add Swap to your droplet using this tutorial to add a Swap file to your Digital Ocean droplet.

The number of sites you can run per droplet depends on how much memory and disk space you have available and how much traffic they receive.

Digital Ocean only provides one IP address per droplet however you can run 2 droplets running CPanel and synch DNS between them, so NS1 = Droplet 1 , NS2 = Droplet 2.

However once you start spending $20 per droplet, $14 for CPanel VPS per month you might as well move to OVH and their SoYouStart offerings.

An Intel Xeon W3520/ 4 cores 8 threads / 2.6Ghz / 16GB RAM / 2 * 2TB HDD & 250Mbps unlimited data transfer is only $42, add $20 per month from OVH for CPanel lands you with a capable server for $62 per month. https://www.soyoustart.com/us/offers/sys-ip-1.xml

Wait... hostgator is not a good host? Does anyone else know about this?

+1 for digitalocean

johnnyloadproductions · 06-07-2015, 10:31 AM

Thanks for the responses.

What really provoked this was the speed of the sites and the fact I started experiencing trouble with adwords because of "poor user experience" from the sites that were hosted.

Certified hosting is good but I don't need that much space on a server, I've used them before.

I want SSD drives for all my stuff, hosting included.

Less than a week ago I took apart my 2010 27" iMac and installed a SSD into it. Quiet and loads everything 2-5x faster. Speed matters a lot more than it used to, especially with all other websites out there.

Question:

Why are you promoting Digital Ocean hosting in your sig "for all your needs" and yet, asking for hosting advice.

It would seem to contradict your DC recommendation... I am just saying.

I have small businesses I host for, not many. Digital Ocean requires some command line skills to get everything up and running, nothing extreme but would throw the average folk into a fit.

Have a look at Linode too. I'd use them over digital ocean.

Can always give Vultr a try. Faster speeds and more locations than Digital Ocean

Latency from Melbourne to Vultr Sydney is appalling, what type of interconnect / peering do you guys have here ?

Choopa Phil · 06-10-2015, 08:11 AM

I'm pretty limited on my info about Vultr, whoever I know they do operate within an Equinix facility in Aus.

If you have any specific questions Vultr can be reached here - https://www.vultr.com/contact/

a decent shared hosting account might work for you.

Not sure what you are using but why do you not try this again on their speed test

SFO1 Speedtest | DigitalOcean

against our tampa data center

Tampa Speedtest | Cloud Blok

they do 6.19 mbps down and we do 8.01 mbps down.

Don't say stuff that isn't true dude. They do not even have a connection that lest you down 85.31mbps, don't kid yourself.
