Estimate the RAM, CPU, and storage your VPS needs based on traffic, app type, and database size.
Choosing a VPS plan is where most people either overpay for power they'll never use or — worse — pick too little and watch their site crash during a traffic spike. Tell us about your app and traffic, and we'll estimate the RAM, CPU, and storage you actually need, with headroom baked in.
Watch two numbers: if RAM usage sits above 80% for days, or page loads creep past 3 seconds, it's time to move up a tier. Upgrading a VPS is usually a 10-minute job with most hosts.
Shared = you split one server with strangers (cheap, but their traffic spikes slow you down). VPS = your own guaranteed slice of CPU/RAM (faster, more reliable, slightly pricier).
Managed, no contest. The host handles security patches, backups, and server headaches. Unmanaged is cheaper but you're the sysadmin.
With most hosts, yes — scaling down is as easy as scaling up. That's why estimating with headroom is safe.
