Before you go about the process of creating a website, you need to make sure you know what your site will entail; who is going to want to access it and how and when it is going to be updated. These are just a few things you need to be aware of before you publish a website on the Internet.
Whenever you visit a website, what you see on your web browser is an array of files that are provided to for your viewing pleasure instantly. These files are populated to your screen by a web hosting company. In order to have a web site on the internet, you must have a web hosting account from a company.
I now work for a company that allows website owners to convert online, and for free, their site to mobile. They are called Ginwiz (http://ginwiz.com).
I'm currently using CentOS (512 RAM, Dual-core CPU) for my website. Here are the specs:
Django 1.3.1
Python 2.7.2
Apache 2 with mod_wsgi 3.3
MySQL 5 (about 5,000 records)
Memcached (120 MB for running)
Nginx for serving the static content
When my site has 2,000 visitors at the same time, the CPU usage reachs about 40% of total. And with 10K visitors, CPU is 90%-100%. The site is very slow.
I wonder that many people reach a web site at the same time. For example a simple currency converter web site. Many people can want to reach this web site and calculate at the same time. How does this happen?
I have a Premium SSL Cert with a provider and they sent me chain.cer, site.pem and site.cer.
Google is taking site’s loading speed into consideration in determining its ranking. Even though this will not land a big impact, it is still something we (webmasters) should really look into.
Got a T1-internet connection with a Cisco ASA 5510 appliance in our small office.
We have a site-to-site vpn connection from our office to a remote data center.
Question(s):
1) How can I find out if my site-to-site vpn traffic is being saturated via the Cisco ADSM?
2) Are there other simple/free tools that can show me if my site-to-site vpn connection is being saturated?
Thank-you!
I have a site with reasonably high traffic that I expect to increase over time which is currently on shared hosting.
My plan is to move the site (which runs on WordPress) to a Gandi VPS.
Can I develop the new site on the VPS using just the IP of the server and then, when it's ready to go live, can I just point my domain away from the shared hosting and towards my VPS with the new site?
