Any basic hosting including yours right now can handle 1k UV a day assuming they are spread over 24h, not just 30 minutes. If you are paranoid as me, use a CDN.
1,000 clicks per day is nothing. It's hard for me to imagine any hosting service not being able to support that.
100,000 clicks per day on shared hosting has never been a problem for me. (And I've run some crazy convoluted things on there)
I'd never get hosting through a domain registrar though, that's just asking for trouble. Go for a company who focuses on hosting.
I've had no problems with HostGator which I've run some sites on, though their support sucks. Being self sufficient and knowing how linux/httpd/htaccess/php/php.ini works helps with that a lot.
"What service can support 1,000 clicks a day?" I think says something really scary about your current provider, or the software you're running. It shouldn't be a problem for any real hosting provider.
A VPS is called a droplet on DigitalOcean. A VPS can handle more traffic than shared hosting as only the OP's website will be hosted on it. Also, their cheapest droplet is almost the same price as that of some shared hosting. I suggested to him this because they give you free credits to try out their service.
It's a monthly plan but if you cancel earlier you will be only charged for the time you've used the VPS for. It's very easy if you're using WordPress. I use Openlitespeed WordPress one-click installer image from the marketplace. There are different images for different setup and I think it's very easy to set up for any purpose. Give it a try if you have a VCC or a PP account.Thank you for the explanation. I didn't know that the droplet was a VPS, do they bill "pay as you go"? Also is the VPS empty or is it already setup?
It'd good performance-wise as well as price-wise.It's incredible, the performance at Digital Ocean is almost double for half the price (without cPanel) of what other VPS competitors offer![]()
I think shared hosting can still handle it right? Even for 3k-5k traffic.For that reason, I'm considering migrating to another web hosting. I want my website to be ready for moderate traffic (+1000 click per day)
