Enjoy! Unless specifically requested I avoice the overhead of things like cPanel/DA anyway.
The only thing to bear in mind with this approach is site migrations and IP address changes. It's fine for smaller blog sites, but if you've got anything ecommerce like just be careful not to "lose" an order/etc in the change over. If you have the ability to, dropping the TTL on the DNS settings helps massively as the DNS changes won't take long.
There's no LUX BuyVM stock showing just yet - in fact the 2gb instance has -1 stock in stock.
And most importantly. Plan your OFFSITE backup. In case you are able to manage your VPS on your own. No one can tell if your provider will go deadpool in a day notice. So being prepared will be the best.
Just in case, you've not settled down yet, we surely can work something out for you.
Awesome sauce! If you need help with setups or got how to questions, I am just a pm away
@Francisco overdid himself. Check out LU E3-KVM 2GB stock.
Thanks for everything, man. I got a solution now that I am working on. I'm doing some small DNS-transfers now with non-important sites and learning about the do's and dont's.
Yes, I have started to understand this. Thank you for the heads up. How do you usually take care of this yourself?
Nice website man! I got it sorted out but I'll put you on the list of possible solutions for future expansion, ok?
What did you go with in the end, VPS or reseller? (and who with?)
@fisksvansen glad to hear you got it sorted out, as @Mr_Tom said let us know what solution you used in the end
Another lesson learned just recently. So after 48 hours that the provider was not able resolve my issue, I restored the backups to another provider.
Important to take note, that even if your provider is AWS, Google and other big players, you should have your offsite backups into another provider. Even if you phone the provider, you will bump into issues that even they cannot resolve even for 3 months.
So be prepared always.
For offsite backups, there are different types of backups. You can do a research of these.
If you use a control panel, you can also check if it has offsite backup feature as mostly have one.
For offsite backup storage, you will also need to consider restore speed. So it is also important that your backup storage provider have huge network.
You can check out these (no need for server sertup, low maintenance, durable storage):
You can also use storage servers (you setup your own server):
I suggest having your offsite backup storage to be close to your server for possible low latency.
In your case, I suggest to get first cloud storage, and Backblaze may be the cheapest option for you as the pricing is per usage/month starting at $0.005/gb.
Then get a storage server ($5/mo) for learning purposes. If you use block storage, there's an extra step as you need to attach the block storage to the VPS.
Hey guys! I will go with reseller at the moment and slowly learn more about VPS and in the future perhaps move over to that. Some space opened up over at buyshared.net so I went with the second option there. It’s perfect for me in this time of transition. I seem to have 3 clients lining up already.
Oh my, that’s a really good summary. I am very grateful that you put all that work into it. Thank you!
