Ever wondered how many visitors your website can handle before it starts slowing down?
A well-optimized WordPress website on decent shared hosting can often handle 10,000–50,000 visitors a month. But it really depends on how your website is built and how well it's optimized.
Things like too many plugins, large images, poor caching and database issues can slow your site down. And since shared hosting means sharing server resources with other websites, that can sometimes affect performance too.
The good news is that a few simple changes can make a big difference. Enable page caching, compress your images, remove plugins you don't use and stick to a lightweight theme.
But what if your traffic keeps growing? If your website starts struggling to keep up, it might be time to move to VPS hosting.
With Truehost, you can start with shared hosting and upgrade to VPS as your website grows, without switching providers.
