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!

Hello Steven,
Thank you for reaching out. Given your budget and requirements, I would recommend considering a Virtual Private Server (VPS) hosting plan. This would provide you with more dedicated resources, better performance, and the ability to handle the traffic of your popular website more effectively. Providers like Fasthosts, as mentioned in a previous message, offer VPS plans that may suit your needs well.
Additionally, you might want to explore managed WordPress hosting services, as they are optimized for WordPress sites and typically offer good performance and reliability. Providers like WP Engine, SiteGround, or Bluehost can be considered.
Remember to review the specific features and pricing of each hosting option to find the one that aligns best with your requirements and budget. (Study abroad) (Mechanical engineering) (Canada PR) (PMP Exam Prep)

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. -
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?
-
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.
-
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.

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.

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 GBRegards
Nigel

How to get the most reviews for in home service providers?
Most of my clients go to the clients home to provide their service. For example a plumber or a bed bug extermination. Most of my clients find it hard to ask for and get reviews even though they do a great job. Is there an app or anything else out there that makes the process easier and gets better results than just asking? Are there any review aggregator applications? Maybe an application that a client can write a review in one location and the review is pushed out to multiple sites like Google My Business or YP?

How can I filter reviews that use profanity while using schema markup?
Google released new guidelines last year governing how schema markup is to be deployed on a website. One of those guidelines states that reviews on your site must not be filtered or altered to receive the benefit of schema markup. After my client was slapped on the wrist by Google for ignoring their Webmaster guidelines (and our advice ahem) they removed all filtering from the websites. However, being a family friendly company it is a requirement that no profanity be displayed on the website. Google's guidelines are not entirely clear about what to do. They state: "Profanity and vulgar language are discouraged. Reviews should be appropriate for a broad and diverse audience. Consequently, reviews containing vulgar or profane language may be ineligible for use." and... "Critic reviews must allow for customers to express both positive and negative sentiments. They may not be vetted by the business or restricted by the content provider based on the positive/negative sentiment of the review before submission to Google." The issue is that we need to vet the reviews to remove profanity, yet that may be triggering for Google. Any thoughts?

Anyone used Synup recently?
They are now promoting themselves as an alternative to Yext. In theory it sounds good, as it includes listings management that publish updates within 72 hours, along with review monitoring and notifications. I'm wondering if they live up to their pitch.

Want to use Google Business Pages but Spam Reviews are putting me off
Not sure if I am missing something here...I have phoned and asked Google business how they deal with reviews which are potentially fake and damaging to a business reputation, it seems there is very little a small local business can do about them other than report the review with no guarantee of anyone helping ...Has anyone else had this issue as I would really like to use this service to assist with rankings on google? It is hard to convince (and to be honest I don't want to have to convince!) a local business that this is a good service at the same time as informing them they will more than likely have to spend extra time fending off fake reviews...Not seen any good answers anywhere else, ignoring the reviews, adding more positive reviews or replying/managing reviews are not an option. Hope someone can help with this, thanks

Has Anyone Ever Used Nearby Now App for SEO?
Hello Moz World, I was researching different ways to expand a client's SEO beyond his brick and mortar location. I listen to a webinar by Brightlocal on tactics I could use to help improve rankings. (Great Webinar, nothing really relevant till after the 30 minute mark). One of the host recommended an app called Nearby Now which will help a local service provider rank in multiple towns by allowing clients to provide a testimonial in realtime in the city that the service was provided and link it back to the website. I sat down with a customer service rep, and it sounds like its a great low cost solution for service providers to rank outside of their brick and mortar location. My question, Has anyone used it? Have you had a good experience? Can anyone recommend a better app? As always, thank you for your feedback and time. Best Regards, Will H.
