Many bloggers keep complaining that their blogs were suspended by web hosting companies because of heavy server usage and they plan to change the CMS thinking there would be problems in the CMS but the main problem is in the plugins which are you running.
The best suggestion for high traffic blogs with high amount of images and blogs which have a lot of plugins enabled is to use a wordpress plugin named : WP Super Cache which can help you in decreasing your server load by reducing the sql queries processing by creating html files. When it is installed, html files are generated and they are served without ever invoking a single line of PHP. This plugin works perfectly even though your website has hit homepage of Digg or slashdot generally called as the Slashdot effect and handles any type of traffic loads by enhancing the performance and helping the server from getting crashed.
You can download the Super cache plugin here
Amit, You are right…
This plugin really reduces server resources and also boosts site performance.
but how will it react for search engines ??? i mean SEO & will the links be changed ?? if yes then where will the traffic from SE’s go ?? as SE’s will have cached the old page address
Wow, amit nice find. I think i should try it out on my website. 🙂 Thanks.
its not the soultion amit,
i still get cpu usage as high as 120%
why so please lemme know..
let u know i have no plugins installed defualt wp theme.Still problem persists!
It would be a issue with the already create tables in your database, look into it and try to repair the same. Also try to reinstall your blog once which can fix most of the problems.
Seemly, wp super cache is the best choice. I have installed it, but that’s not enough with my blog. I use auto translation plugin.
Hi Amit…
I have used this plugin too. Do u know any plugin that will warn if we’re reaching the limit..so we could avoid being suspended? Thx and regards
