In my experience unless a worldwide audience is the target then if its a UK site for UK people and hosted in UK/EU then cloudflare just adds another layer to potentially slow stuff down.

(Quote) Ah sorry you mentioned Hetzner Cloud so assumed it was a VPS.
-
(Quote) Correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like you're comparing shared hosting with a VPS? I don't know the specific details of the site but I'd be interested to see it - we look after and optimise a few sites for managed cli…
-
(Quote) Definitely. But at the same time most of the EU-based hosting would be fine too. I just wouldn't go US/Asia/Aus for UK based sites.
-
My ISP (Zen, UK) is well connected but they route everything to London first - so London has low ping times, but Manchester for example (which is ~40 mile away) is similar ping as Hetzner Falkenstein as it does a long trip down to London and back No…

(Quote) Yeah I'd agree with that - you're more likely to be marked down from an SEO/usability point if the website takes 3 seconds to load due to poor code/optimisation than losing 5ms if it's in Germany

I'm no expert from an SEO point of view but unless it's the other side of the world then hosting in Europe for the UK has no noticeable slowdown in terms of speed. More likely to be effected by how well the website performs.

We can do: * 1 core * 1gb ECC RAM * 512gb HDD * 5tb transfer @ 1gbps * 1 x IPv4, /64 IPv6 * Hetzner Finland location * £4/month (ex VAT if applicable) - Order (Full Range) We do offer a 256gb plan but it comes with 512mb RAM so NextCloud might be …
-
Thanks for the mtnion @ehab We could do the spec you need in Hetzners Finland DC - these are HDD based they've got good IO (I'll dig out a YABS if it helps). I can't get this into 10eur/month budget though, so if you can be a little…

(Quote) Gunna struggle with including VAT at that price sorry.
-
How flexible is the budget? Does it include VAT?
-
I am definitely using the prawn sandwich one
-
Assuming the old LES IRC was #les then it's still registered but ChanServ says owner is "freenode-placeholder-account" which I've noticed on other channels when the person who registered it no longer has a registered Nick. Just …

(Quote) I can't speak for other applicants at the time but it was a PHP Dev role and I left college as a qualified blacksmith - but I turned up with a laptop and demonstrated what I'd taught myself and got it lol. My laptop was running Sla…

(Quote) I applied for a job once for the hell of it (my first IT job actually) as I had no training other than self taught, and wasn't working in IT at the time. Turns out I was the "most capable" person who applied and was offered th…

(Quote) Okay true - but I've never had a speed issue using it.

What about bolt? I find that quite lightweight
-
Congrats @Mason and @mikho looking forward to seeing what happens in the future!
-
Is it not under update software configuration?
-
I don't know about OLS but on my DA server as an end user it's under Extra Features > Select PHP version then within the PHP selector there's an "Options" tab which has the memory limit value in there. This may well be li…
-
When you say you've increased the memory limit, have you confirmed it's being reflected at a website level? I've had cases of this before where it was meant to have changed but the end site was still seeing the old value?
-
There's mythic beasts in Cambridge too but again, not so lowend.
-
LoveServers used to do a £15/year small one in Manchester, but they've recently changed to billing in USD if that makes any difference. @SMARTHOST have some in Wolverhampton (veloxserv DC I believe) but not used them so can't comment. The…

(Quote) I believe that's just the LES exclusive category. I don't think it applies to the standard "offers" category.
-
(Quote) Ok... that I can't answer :/ lol
-
(Quote) I've not done much with LXC but the swap in proxmox could be presented as a swap partition - that could still be added to via a swapfile on the disk itself which could top up the swap to 5gb. For example on my desktop I have: $ sudo sw…
-
(Quote) £80/6 months?
-
(Quote) I know it can be installed on AX41/51/Intel E3s on proxmox so no reason why it shouldn't! Installer isn't very flashy and the partitioner takes some getting used to lol
