What makes a good web host?
I’ll admit it, I have A.D.D when it comes to technology. There’s always something new, someone cheaper, or something shiny that grabs my attention. But new isn’t always better.
As I’m writing this post, I’m having conversations with my web host, A Small Orange, over high CPU performance. It seems that something on my WordPress site is causing the server to work extra hard. We’ve found out it’s either related to index.php and/or wp-cron.
Taking Chances with Dreamhost
I’m taking the chance on Dreamhost hosting. I’ve read the good the bad and the ugly, however I’m still checking it out.
Actually, I’ve used Dreamhost for another site in the past and it hasn’t been bad at all. So maybe it’s the unusually high amount of traffic the site gets that makes a big difference. Who knows.
No, TwisterMc.com is not moving from ASmallOrange hosting. I love ASmallOrange and I just need more space and bandwidth for some items that are causing issues. So I decided to check out Dreamhost as they have unbelievably high monthly bandwidths (2 TB+) and storage (200MB+) for a small price. Less than $3 a month actually with the promo code SRVR87.
