Could you recommend me a good hosting provider (and witch hosting plan) capable of bearing my website?

I am now hosted on ASO (A Small Orange) on a business plan.

Thanks all for your help

Do you have any idea on what the theme/plugin is actually using on average as far as RAM/CPU goes?

It's hard to say though, since we don't know much about the site itself. What's the amount of users like? By users, I mean purchasing, logging in etc, not just people browsing the site.

Could you give a list of other plugins you have installed & activated?

Our support is there 24/7 and when it's not online we have technical support with a ticket response average of less than 8 minutes, uptimes 100% this month and the previous one, dailyback ups, Instant setup and more. Just let me know if you need a promo for one free month on our highest package.

That's a great, useless post. It's also against the rules to self advertise.

How about helping the OP out and not advertising.

Thanks

I do not have stats about logging in customers, just I can tell that there is approximately around 500 unique visitors per day.

With that number of plugins in addition to running a storefront, this is mots likely your problem.

You mention "2GB" - how do you know this?

While sql wait still applies here, it's most likely due to the number of plugins attempting to connect, users as well as the theme itself.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you're either going to need to do one of the following:

1. reduce the number of plugins. (the sheer number of "woo" plugins is crazy!)

2. use shared hosting with much higher resources.

3. start looking into a VPS - I'd recommend going the managed route for this one.

-----------------------

Now, with that said, since I don't have access to the site from the server side, I can't really tell you exactly what's going on.

I do know that there have been more & more reports of the hosting company you're using (ASO) having issues with tightening up things similar to HostGator/BlueHost and the other EIG companies. Yes, ASO is an EIG company as well.

The points I listed, would most likely be an upgrade for you - I'd recommend double checking the RAM usage though, 2GB sounds quite high.

Thanks

I think that you must go on dedicated server.

Hey Koreahallyu, Like has been pointed out, some more info will be needed to know wheter something is actually wrong with your current host. Most times a combination of plugins may start to drain your server resources! However a quick google search for best web hosting services will show you some hosts you could actually bet your money on! Hope this helps

It should be noted, A Small Orange is also an EIG company so that might be where the problem lays as well...

You are angered because your premature hosting company didn't make it's way into the list and there is no way i can recommend something i can't vouch for.

I think you are the one being self-promotional here, all your response is seamlessly targeted at the OP having a bad hosting, so appalling.

Lol, please...I don't want my company listed on a site with fake, bogus reviews. Sorry.

Right.....entire datacenter has been down multiple times over the past few months, hardly what I'd call "reliable".

Come on man, let's not be disingenuous. 6 out of the 10 companies you list are EIG companies (which have a reputation for having issues) and the other four just happen to have the exact same $100 payout for referrals? Part of it is the hosting, part of it is the number of plugins and hopefully part of it is the traffic.

I'd also like to note, that if it's the site in your signature, it seems more like sql wait to me, which is indicative of either an overloaded server. The long wait times between loading pages is usually a tell-tale sign.

That is a huge amount of plugins. Was the page loading time ever good for your site with your current setup and hosting (a small orange)? If it was and has declined then it's most likely that your biggest problem would be on ASO's end...

Hey there koreahallyu, I noticed one thing that made my install of woocommerce go really slow was the # of taxonomies I had (product tags, cats, attributes, etc.). You may want to try reducing them if possible and/or get rid of any unused ones.

If your single product pages are slow, you could also edit the query that pulls in the related products. This is a pretty resource intense query, especially if you have lots of taxonomies. Fixing it reduced my page loads by 90%. It's in the abstract-wp-product.php file within woocommerce.

Thank you everybody for your help and your concern. I moved my site to a VPS 2 cores and looks it is working much better now.

I am on the same hosting: ASO.

I will see now if it will be fine on the long term.

With WooCommerce we had some issues with pages taking up to 12 seconds to load. However, I hired someone on Odesk to go in and optimize everything from cache settings, cloudfront CDN, database, css and javascript to optimization of all images on the site. Now it loads completely in less than 3 seconds.

I also disabled plugins that were not as useful as we thought they might be. The sites have good traffic, so we also use a dedicated server with plenty of ram. (8GB and up)

If you want best service, go for a specialist Wordpress host like WPEngine, page.Ly or Synthesis. They will not just host you, but take care of your site, optimize the plugins etc. Cheap oversellers are not going to help you much.

VPS is the way to go for sure.. I know having many plugins on woo-commerce is usually necessary but can bog things down pretty good... VPS and someone to go in an optimize everything is Key for an ecommerce store.

Screw a small orange, they suck. My woocommerce websites are loading for 2-4 seconds tops. I pay $30/m. For faster load time, you should also optimize your website.

With proper optimization WooCommerce pages can be loaded in under 2sec. Definitely too much plugins some are redundant and some of are total resource wasters. You need to get somebody to optimize your shop.

Most WP users are just throwing in every plugin somebody recommends and this is where problems usually begin. Once site is barely loading they blame WP

When using WP as ecommerce, there's no way you should load on a bunch of plugins. You should only have what you need. For example, you have contact form 7, but the Sistina theme (as do all the themes from that company) already has a contact form as part of it.

Do you really need a captcha? Do you really need cookies for comments? Even with better hosting, the plug ins should be pared down

Thanks
