What is important is the amount of processing the server does per hit.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, a cached article can be served up without needing to repeatedly run PHP code from WordPress as well as database queries. On the other hand, a request which has not been cached will need WordPress to go through all these processes.<\/p>\n<p>Traffic increases are also important. If a blog normally gets 2,000 hits per day but, because one post has become viral, gets 20,000 hits, it will require sufficient infrastructure to manage the influx.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_You_Can_Select_Web_Hosts_for_High-Traffic_Blog\"><\/span>How You Can Select Web Hosts for High-Traffic Blog.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Consider_CPU_and_RAM_Usage\"><\/span>1. Consider CPU and RAM Usage<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The CPU and RAM usage of the web host are amongst the most crucial resources that should be checked before hosting your highly visited WordPress blogs.<\/p>\n<p>The CPU processes all the work that needs to be done when running PHP code, databases, plugins, etc. RAM works as the memory for performing these processes. In case the available CPU or memory runs out, the users might face slow loading of pages, failure of requests, etc.<\/p>\n<p>It is important not to consider only the <a href=\"https:\/\/harmonweb.com\/blog\/how-to-check-disk-space-in-cpanel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">disk space available<\/a> in different packages. A web hosting plan with 100 GB of storage does not mean that it is superior to another plan with 30 GB of storage in terms of capacity to manage traffic.<\/p>\n<p>In case of the shared hosting, pay attention to the limitations on the use of such resources as CPU, memory, number of entry processes, input\/output, and others.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Pay_Attention_to_Server_Location\"><\/span>2. Pay Attention to Server Location<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Where your hosting server is located physically might have an impact on the <a href=\"https:\/\/harmonweb.com\/blog\/how-server-location-affects-website-speed-and-user-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">network latency<\/a>. If you have readers in Nigeria, for instance, then the network route between these users and your server will be of importance.<\/p>\n<p>In case your readership is global, a CDN would come in handy. Server location must never be thought of separately from server quality, since a local but congested server will perform worse than a properly configured server located far away.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Choose_Fast_Storage\"><\/span>3. Choose Fast Storage<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Your choice of storage is not only related to how many files your server can store.<\/p>\n<p>WordPress websites that generate high traffic will have to read databases, files, logs, cache, and other items. Faster storage will decrease the time needed to do these tasks.<\/p>\n<p>SSD and NVMe storages may perform I\/O much better compared to regular hard drives, but storage alone shouldn\u2019t be seen in isolation.<\/p>\n<p>In case you have a lot of articles, pictures, back-ups, and other documents on your blog, think about how rapidly your storage space is going to increase.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Consider_PHP_Workers_and_Concurrent_Requests\"><\/span>4. Consider PHP Workers and Concurrent Requests<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This is one of the crucial technical aspects to consider when talking about WordPress sites.<\/p>\n<p>If the site does not use caching, and the visitor makes a request for a page, then WordPress might have to run PHP processes. The number of concurrent PHP requests that can be handled is determined by the PHP workers.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of a sudden traffic burst, this could further slow down the responses even if the hosting package is considered to offer adequate storage and bandwidth.<\/p>\n<p>This is why high traffic blogs need to consider more than just the number of visitors and need to know how their hosting environment manages concurrent PHP requests.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Opt_for_Scalable_Hosting\"><\/span>5. Opt for Scalable Hosting<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The type of hosting you require now may not remain constant six months from now.<\/p>\n<p>For example, your blog might go through a phase of fast expansion once it achieves search visibility, publishes viral posts, or becomes popular on social networks.<\/p>\n<p>Search for a hosting company which enables you to make an easy transition from:<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">Shared Hosting \u2192 Managed <\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong><span style=\"font-size: 10pt\">WordPress\/VPS Hosting \u2192 Cloud\/Dedicated Hosting<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>It all depends on your particular website.<\/p>\n<p>An optimized blog can continue to stay on shared or managed WordPress hosting for quite a while. But other websites which have a lot of concurrent users, lots of plugins or require heavy database queries may need a <a href=\"https:\/\/harmonweb.com\/blog\/types-of-web-hosting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">VPS<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The important point here is that there needs to be an upgrade plan and not one that waits for the server to fail.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Use_a_CDN_When_Your_Blog_Has_a_Large_or_Worldwide_Audience\"><\/span>6. Use a CDN When Your Blog Has a Large or Worldwide Audience<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/harmonweb.com\/blog\/what-is-web-caching-and-how-does-it-work-a-harmonweb-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Content Delivery Network<\/a> enables caching of content from a nearby location.<\/p>\n<p>It becomes really handy when you have users from various countries visiting your blog. Rather than having every user access static content from your server, a CDN caches images, CSS, JavaScript, and any other type of content that may be eligible for this kind of caching.<\/p>\n<p>Cloudflare also states that the cache is able to store frequently accessed material within different geographically dispersed data centers, thus limiting the number of requests to the origin server.<\/p>\n<p>A CDN doesn\u2019t remove the need for proper hosting. The requests that cannot be cached will still go to the origin server. Nevertheless, good caching will reduce origin traffic and increase scalability.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Emphasize_on_Caching\"><\/span>7. Emphasize on Caching<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/harmonweb.com\/blog\/best-free-and-paid-caching-plugins-for-wordpress-hosting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Caching<\/a> will make a huge difference in the workload that the server has to do.<\/p>\n<p>If you do not use caching properly, then every single time there is a request for a certain page, your WordPress website might have to process all PHP codes and retrieve the data from the database.<\/p>\n<p>Page caching enables the retrieval of frequently requested web pages from a cached version instead of creating one every time.<\/p>\n<p>According to WordPress\u2019s guidelines, server caching is often applied on highly trafficked sites, whereas opcode caching can help optimize the performance of PHP.<\/p>\n<p>For a busy blog, look for a host that is compatible with things like:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: square\">\n<li>Full page cache<\/li>\n<li>CDN support<\/li>\n<li>OPcache<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/harmonweb.com\/blog\/what-is-object-caching-redis-vs-memcached-explained\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Redis\/Memcached<\/a> where needed<\/li>\n<li>Object cache<\/li>\n<li>Browser caching<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The idea here is to minimize unneeded processing on the origin server.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Database_Performance_Assessment\"><\/span>8. Database Performance Assessment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/harmonweb.com\/blog\/how-to-optimize-your-websites-database-for-faster-performance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WordPress depends greatly on its database<\/a>. Information such as posts, pages, settings, users, plugins data, comments, etc., may be saved in the database. The more a blog expands, the larger the database becomes, and more queries will need to be made.<\/p>\n<p>A busy blog should therefore take into account the following:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: square\">\n<li>Database server performance<\/li>\n<li>Efficiency of queries<\/li>\n<li>Database load created by plugins<\/li>\n<li>Caching of objects<\/li>\n<li>Amount of memory available<\/li>\n<li>Size of the database<\/li>\n<li>Performance of backups and restores<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A slow database may be a bottleneck even if there is sufficient storage on the server.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_Hosting_is_Appropriate_for_a_Traffic-Bound_Blog\"><\/span>Which Hosting is Appropriate for a Traffic-Bound Blog?<span
