About Me: I'm a freelance web developer that specializes in WordPress Themes and plugin development. I've written about some of my projects here.
I upgraded my server yesterday to the VPS300 plan at Spry. My old server was being hit pretty hard and wasn’t managing to serve the pages at a decent speed, actually if you made a visit in the last few days you would have thought the server was down. I was told with the upgrade my server would be placed on a different nod that has fewer servers so I should see a big performance boost. From what I can tell it’s a lot faster and my traffic is heading back to normal rates, although mint is driving me crazy with it’s inconstant stats.
The price isn’t getting to me yet, I already get a large discount with Spry and TLA is paying for the the hosting 5 fold. But I’m thinking there’s got to be a dedicated plan out there with a similar rate or bunk up with Jared and get our own server and colo it.
