What hosting provider do you use? I think mine is letting down my SEO!

Hello

I am curious to what hosting plans you are using, and what you would recommend.

I am currently paying £30 per month for shared reseller hosting with tsohost and having problems every week with my most popular website (1-10k hits a day). website gets internal errors and intermittently goes extremely slow.

I have about 10 sites in total most very small traffic. So just looking for something fast, good for WordPress sites and ideally good for migrating over onto.

Please let me know your recommendations. My budget is £100 per month, ideally a little less.

Thanks!

Steven

Hi Stephen

Honestly, if you are getting 1-10k a day then being on a shared server is really not ideal. You are at the mercy of all the other sites on that server and when they start chewing up the bandwidth you are really going to see a slowdown in performance.

I use Fasthosts and pay them £94 a month for my VPS which I run 5 websites on. It's reasonably easy to understand the Plesk interface and I can re-start it ay any time and the price includes two backups per month.

I'm sure there are similar deals out there with other providers I just wanted to give you an idea of what I had done. Maybe think about a full SSL when you move as well if you don't already have one.

This is the spec:
vCPUs:2
vCPUsMemory:8GB
System disk:40GB
Storage disk:40 GB

Hello Steven,

I personally recommend banahosting, its shared hosting (plan of ~10 usd) really worked for me. Having nearly houndred websites and sometimes some sites with spikes of 1M visits in a day.
Here its website: banahosting.com, if you'd like my referral link.
Also its support is really awesome, had several problems, from hacks, to too many visits/active users online. Always with a response within a few hours.

If you need more power, i'd recommend linoVPS, i've know them as the big hoting behind banahosting, the problem there is that you need some VPS expertise or have to hire someone to configure the hosting.

Hope I've helped.
Best luck.
GR.

Gaston - Is that  1M 1 Million or 1 Thousand?

He needs to cope with 10 Thousand and for that, he will need his own server.

1M = 1million.

well, to be stricly fair, it depends on how many resources we web consumes. 
That 1M visits in a day were to a website with just 5 pages of pure HTML.

The best to do here is to contact some that specializes in web hosting/servers performance and match the needs of Steven's website.

You're telling me that you are paying $10 a month for a site that spikes at 1 Million visits a day?

What's the max client on the server?

[GastonRiera]

had spikes of 1M visits a day. Happend over 2013 and 2014. 
Again, that is a website that consumes almost nothing of resources, just 4-5 pure HTML pages getting 6 lines from database.
