It is always variable, never going to change that. If anything it does prove that a CDN can in fact add more time to the page load. But again, depends, variables, etc.. Learnt a lot in the last 48 hours, that's the real benefit, for me at least :)

And with Cloudflare back on. (Image) TTFB (0.6s) - FCP (1.1) - LCP (1.5) All very interesting, I am spending way to much time on this :)
-
(Quote) Well, this is the thing, it is all very dependent on factors. I mean as mentioned above sometimes Cloudflare gets in the way. This is me running it again with HM, removing Cloudflare and reverting back to their own DNS. TTFB (58ms) - FCP …

(Quote) I guess the question is whether DDoS is going to be an issue for the site. I mean your average site won't need to worry about DDoS attacks. For the majority of site owners, I doubt that DDoS or IP exposure is even a consideration.
-
(Quote) This is an interesting one, I did test this yesterday by removing Cloudflare and reverting back to the provider DNS and from the UK/EU the overall performance based on GTMetrix improved enough to make it worthwhile not using a CDN. As expec…

Thanks, I think the discussion and purpose are clear without needing the thread needing to descend into privacy, illegal activity, ToS and so on. That is more of an LET than LES requirement.
-
(Quote) Whilst I agree with the happy medium approach unless there is something specific about your targeting needs, I honestly detest a site that makes me wait 2 seconds or more.
-
(Quote) What? Just yours? Do something about it if you think it could be better done. Nobody will stop you from opening a few threads.
-
(Quote) Absolutely, I think you would be making a mistake to include the Pro Pack in discounted/lifetime/legacy. What you provide now is good enough. If people in those categories want the pro option, I am sure you will provide a competitive cost …

(Quote) Sorry, just meant Hetzner, got their cloud on my mind as I am testing some things on there today..
-
(Quote) All shared/reseller hosting, no VPS, well maybe running on a VPS but I doubt it. Can't share the site, not mine, just used it as an example with the person I was discussing this whole topic with. Also, appears to be large just resized imag…

So more of a performance proof of concept I took a large, image-heavy WordPress install, not mine but I had permission and copied it to various locations and then ran it through GTMetrix. Either cPanel/DirectAdmin with Cloudflare. Hostmantis UK (c…

(Quote) I am the same, up in Scotland, just outside Glasgow. Everything is a round trip via London. So for me the same thing. That extra bit to/from large parts of Europe has no real effect. I mean the UK example is just that. A good host in th…

Slightly above your budget but worth it with Hetzner Cloud. 4 vCPU (AMD), 8GB Ram, 160GB NVMe, 20TB Traffic. 12.40 EUR monthly.
-
(Quote) Doubt it. (Quote)
-
(Quote) That was another point actually. I suggested that even if you picked a UK host and the performance is poor that will likely affect you more than say a German host that was significantly more performant.
-
(Quote) I like it. One of those things that you will get used to but an improvement. The only thing I don't like is that if you hover over the left side it pops up fine, but move back to the right to do something else on that page, you need to cli…

Had a play around with the new theme, looking really nice and feels a bit more intuitive in places where it wasn't before. Simple things make a difference.
-
(Quote) I saw what you did there.
-
(Quote) This is good but the reality is that CentOS is commonly chosen if you are using a control panel. You are now supporting CentOS 8 as you had to given you are so tied to cPanel. People in the main use Ubuntu/Debian without panels on their VP…
-
Still a big gap in the market for a good automated set and forget backup provider that does not charge the earth. JetBackup for Linux is a really good option price & feature wise but CentOS 7 only. Ottomatik.io is amazing but stupid expensive e…

@mason have you moved it? Seems super quick all of a sudden.
-
That is way nicer than the current ones. Especially the Icon Grid one which just makes me shudder when I see it.
-
(Quote) I do like Hetzner Cloud, a good choice.
-
(Quote) Ok, ignore what I said above, really, just fuck off now.

LET was built out of the passion of one guy for low-end systems by someone who had a genuine interest. LES was built by someone with a genuine interest in hosting and a desire to break away from what wasn't good at LET. That is what made them popu…

(Quote) Yeah, you lost my attention right there. As far as that other site that some of your suggested domains point to. There is nothing more that I hate in hosting than scammy BS affiliate top host websites. All fake reviews and always the top …
-
@seriesn - Good job, some great plans and pricing.
-
(Quote) I mean, I don't want to rain down on you but the day of the forum is gone for hosting. Sure you can have more niche boards like this one but WHT has had its time and it knows it. Good luck with it though. Also, is topwebhosts.com yours?
-
Thanks, if I do something it will use my own hardware and not be lowend.
-
(Quote) That is pretty nice. Good to see new things being added.
-
So, decided it was time to get back to DA and start learning how to manage it properly. The non-compete after the sale of my hosting business is ending in the not too distant future. Maybe, might, could, possibly do something with DA in the future…
-
(Quote) Makes sense, I guess someone like DO adding it to their marketplace will end up generating more support that you care for which of course takes you all away from other tasks such as improving the panel.
-
(Quote) Licensing is always the answer. I suspect they would only offer it if it can be installed and activated without any up-front cost to them. A bit like cPanel and Plesk. DO and Vultr offer both but cPanel is a trial period, Although Vultr …

@DA_Mark Any interest from larger cloud providers, DO, Vultr, Hetzner or others in them offering licences?
