Hello, I was wondering if Latency is an issue hosting my Chile only site in Nexcess. Will the advantages of a optimized shared Magento hosting be more than the latency?

Thank you very much.

Well, randomly came back to this post and it has been almost a year since I’ve been with Nexcess. Wow. Absolutely love their service! Great support and fabulous uptime :-)!

Currently with Nexcess and they are wonderful! Haven’t loaded any SKUs yet as we’re still working on development, but the speed, price, and support is wonderful :). P.S: Some of your extensions have GREATLY helped out. We do appreciate the time you took creating them!

Ashley,
We are hoping to launch our new magento site within 2 weeks. Been working on it for 2-3 months now. Once I got alot of SKU’s loaded in (and we have WAY more to go) it is getting really slow. We are currently on the Crucial Web Hosting Split Dedicated Tier 1.

I originally had WEBO Speedup loaded but ran into some problems so I rolled back to pre-install. Do you have any current advise for hosting (e.g. Nexcess SIP-300 ?? ). We need something that is going to really hum. I will have about 150,000 SKU’s, but we only show configurable sku’s so there are many simple SKU’s never seen.

I have enjoyed and learned from some of your other posts, so thanks!!

Do you recommend any “speedup modules” to install in addition to a particular hosting company?

Indeed, assuming you run all 25 stores from the same magento instance with the multiple store setup, it’s still only 1 installation of Magento. There’s nothing to stop anyone on our end or crucials end or properhosts end from creating 100 different folders on their account and installing magento in each of the folders either.

also note how many instances of the store is allowed to run on a server.

eg sip200 allows only 13clients BUT it could potentially host upto 325stores (each client is allowed 25 domains and instances).

others may not allow that many eg properhost, crucial etc

Frank, this is direct from Nexcess:

The demo store is running on the SIP-100 plan which is apache and the server is shared with 29 other clients. The breakdown is like so:

SIP-100 – Apache – 30 clients total on the server
SIP-200 – Litespeed – 13 clients total on the server
SIP-300 – Litespeed – 4 clients total on the server
SIP-400 – Litespeed – 1 client dedicated server

Can you let us know which sip server your using for the demo store, Apache or the LiteSpeed Web Server>
Thanks
