hi,
i have a website which was 512Mb Droplet , it had 700,0000 post all imported using data feeds of products. the website database use to crash often , so i upgraded on 1Gb droplet.

But the problem are still the same,

  • website is slow takes too long to load
  • Wordpress Admin panel more slow. *importing more products is still slow (previously it used to import 500 products in 1 minute now it takes more then 15min for it ) *database crashes (before it used to crash 5 times a day ,now 2 times a day).

this are some of the problems i am facing , cant afford higher droplet .being a student , i am tight on budget :(

So guys please help me out by recommending best practice, solutions , plugin, advice regarding this.

Thanks in advance ,

    First, you need to share more information about the current setup.

    1. OS installed. Did you install any control panel?
    2. what web server did you install? If Apache, what method was it installed dso, fcid, php-fpm, cgi?
    3. Sample apache configuration parameters.
    4. What modules are installed for php?
    5. What version of WordPress? How many plugins are installed with wp?
    6. Have you considered installed a cache plugin for WP?
    7. Are you blocking useless bot accessing your site, which often steal memory resources?
    8. Firewall?
    9. Mysql configuration and stats? http://mysqltuner.com/
    10. Can you provide some basic statistics about mysql and the OS? Mysql stats? Current os memory allocation? Service memory allocations?

    mysql stats - install http://mysqltuner.com/
