Need VPS advice

[Weasellion]

I have wordpress site with 250000 UV monthly. Not to much plugins. No big peaks and max user in same time is about 350. Site have about 1000 pages, mostly text and pictures. Also some add delivery by adsense. Please can someone recommend proper VPS resource. And some good provider in Europe. Thanks

Data Backup Policy is very important. Regular backups safeguard your website in case of failures. Choose a host that offers automatic and frequent backups.

For a setup like this (250k monthly visits, mostly content + images, and a peak of ~350 concurrent users), I wouldn’t jump straight to a large VPS.

In most cases, performance here depends more on optimisation than raw server size—especially proper caching and how media is handled.

A reasonable starting point would be something in the range of:

• 2–4 vCPU
• 4–8 GB RAM
• NVMe storage (important for WordPress + image-heavy sites)

If things scale or you want more headroom:

• 4–6 vCPU
• 8–12 GB RAM

For providers in Europe, you could look at options like Hetzner or OVH depending on budget and preference.


Also worth noting: a well-configured cache layer (and possibly a CDN for images) will often make a bigger difference than moving to a much larger VPS.


I’d start moderate, optimise first, and scale only if you actually see resource limits being hit.
