Fastest Wordpress Setup

Posted on October 15, 2013

What is the fastest Wordpress setup for 5$ per month plan on condition that I’m using Cloudflare as my CDN? I’m thinking about Nginx + Varnish after reading some reviews on the net. But I’m not experienced, so I’m not sure… Please, advise, which configuration to choose for the fastest Wordpress setup on DigitalOcean?

Yes I agree with angelica.costa. I tried EasyEngine (https://github.com/rtCamp/easyengine) and it work fine for me.

Most probably Nginx, PHP-FPM, Zend opcache, Varnish. <br> <br>If imageheavy use cdn for image-delivery. But don’t use cloudflare because serving already cached content from varnish is faster. Cloudflare ensure availability during traffic spikes.
