1) Select server type, server room, and configuration

1- Server type Only "Shard CPU" is available, other types are not mainly used for websites and are very expensive.

There are 4 options in the chart below, the firstAMD CPU High Performance (high-performance server) and the secondIntel High Performance (High Performance Server) is a new server launched in March '22, the thirdHigh Frequency (HF server) is the HF server of the old package, the fourthRegular Cloud ComputeWorst performance is not recommended.

It is recommended to choose the first oneAMD CPU High Performanceserver to build the site, using theAMD EPYC CPUandNVMe SSDStorage that is powerful and fast.

In order to compare the performance of the first three servers, we opened three separate servers and installed the Pagoda panel to run the score test, the conclusion is the following chartAMD CPU High Performance (High Performance Server) has the best and most stable performance, so it is recommended to choose it to build a website.

Here are the previous 3 different CPU host runs (data based on 2023, data subject to change)↓:

March 2023:AMD CPU High Performance High performance server score results ↓, configured for 1G1H, Silicon Valley server room.

The following chart shows November 2022: intel High Performance Intel High Performance Server Run Score Results ↓, 1G1H, Silicon Valley server room.

November 2022:intel High Frequency Intel HF server run score results ↓, 1G1H, Silicon Valley server room.

AMD CPU High Performance High-performance servers run the highest scores and have the best performance.

Optional Configuration ↓:

Click to viewPrice list of all models of servers with different configurations.

Build Woocommmerce FT2B standalone site or blog:
Release1-2For websites, try to choose at least $12 USD a month 1H2G high frequency server (50GB capacity). Put2-3The website suggests a minimum of $18 dollars a month 2CPU2H high-frequency servers (50GB capacity), the conditions try to choose $24 dollars a month.

WordPress and plug-ins are updated frequently, the server performance is getting higher and higher, especially Woocommerce and Elementor plug-ins eat configuration. And visits up after the high server load will lead to the site becomes stuck or even inaccessible.

The following picture is a customer's website temporarily can not open feedback to us, after investigation found that the server card can not handle so many requests so the website temporarily can not be accessed. The server configuration is low to put 3 websites, really strain. Stable operation of the site is very important, do not save that little bit of money.

build (esp. with simple materials)WoocommmerceCross-border e-commerce retail site:
B2C retail e-commerce sites have more and more complex functionality and have much higher server requirements than B2B sites. Put1-2website, it is recommended to choose the minimum $ $12-18/month package. Put2-3The lowest option is $ $24/month 2G4H high-frequency server (100GB capacity), and you can upgrade the package later when you encounter performance bottlenecks.

3) Vultr speed measurement to select the location of the machine room

If the business scope is global selectionUnited States (America) Region. U.S. network construction is better, global access speed are fast suitable for foreign trade B2B sites, cross-border e-commerce sites. The business scope is specific to the country / region to choose the closest to the region's server room (for example, the British market to choose the London server room).

Los Angeles (USA) machine room to the mainland of the fastest link speed, many people will choose it to build a website in the country, especially to build ladder software. Because too many people pile up in this room will lead to many problems, such as SSH often can not connect, ip is blocked, and occasionally the network is very slow. Plus it is the only one that has failed several times before so it is not recommended to build foreign trade websites. We will generally choose the Silicon Valley server room, it is recommended that the first speed test to choose the most suitable for their own network server room.

Note: Often some servers (e.g. 2H2G) are sold out in some server rooms, so switch between several server rooms to find the right configuration.

Click Speed TestGo to the following page to test your network accessUnited StatesWhat is the ping value of the server room? The lower the ping value, the lower the latency and generally the faster the speed. Record the top 3 US regional server rooms for the test results, using the followingDownload Speed TestTest the actual speed.

Click to download speed testEnter the following interface, first select the server room you need to speed test, then click the red box at the bottom of "100MB" or "1GB" to download the file speed test.

In the download interface to see how much download speed, the following chart shows my download speed is 7.0M / s. Wait a few seconds after downloading to see what the maximum speed is, then click to cancel the download, otherwise the file will really download to the computer. The Ping value of the low several U.S. server room download speed are measured, choose the fastest server room to open the server.

If you are doingDomestic WebsitesThe main choice is the Los Angeles machine room, near the mainland domestic visitors to access the speed faster, depending on the specific speed test. It is not recommended to choose Japan / Singapore machine room, the daytime speed can be, but at night the packet loss serious very card. Tokyo / Singapore room is not directly connected, you need to detour the United States and then to Japan / Hong Kong and then to the mainland, but the speed is not as fast as the Los Angeles room.

4）Select server system

CentOS 7x64 Without SELinux is more stable and faster, CentOs 8 I feel is not as fast and stable as CentOs 7.

Update 2024-07-26: Centos 7 has been discontinued for maintenance and is not recommended. It is recommended to use Debian 12 (11 is fine) instead, which is more stable and lightweight. And nowPagoda PanelThe focus is on optimizing Debian 12 first, followed by Ubuntu-22.

If you don't want to use Debian, and you are tech savvy and want to use LiteSpeed, click "Marketplace Apps" and select "OpenLiteSpeed WordPress" or "CyberPanel" to install it.Don't use LiteSpeed if you're new to itThe website is not as fast as it should be, and it's easy to get problems and the website is slower!

5) Additional Options

The default situation has been checked automatic backup and IPv6 address, between the reservation to enable "Enable IPv6", the automatic backup canceled. IPv6 will speed up the website access speed, is also the future trend. Domain DNS resolution remember to do 2 AAAA resolution to IPV6 address to access the site through the IPV6 address, one is @ and the other is www (the same as A record, specific Baidu).

Regarding the automatic backup suggestion to cancel, the following board will explain the function in detail, and you can additionally turn it on at a later stage according to your own situation. Cancel the automatic backup according to the steps 1-3 in the following figure.

The following SSH Keys are ignored and skipped.

The following picture is to set the label, do not enter leave it blank is fine, you can enter it later. Input the server name on the left(Chinese is not supported), input the server label on the right(supported)Chinese). Feel free to fill in, note that you can not use "/" and other special symbols, generally fill in the web site / business scope and so on easy to identify.

The bottom left corner shows the monthly rent of the server, confirm the details are OK and click (Deploy Now) to enable the server.

To this server rental is complete, automatically jump to the server list will display the server information just rented, at this time shows that the server is being installed ↓.

Wait for 2-3 minutes, the installation will be completed and it will turn into Running. follow the steps below to continue.

This concludes the Vultr purchase tutorial, here is the tutorial on how to use it.

6) Check if IP is blocked (optional)

If you want to check the ip address of the server to see if it is blocked domestically (Wait 10 minutes after the new server is configured before pinging it), follow the tutorial below.

Like Vultr, the cheap servers will be used by some people to take the ladder software, resulting in some servers ip address by the domestic Great Firewall (GFW) blocking. One of our customers server ip address is blocked, resulting in not over the wall to log on, but also can not use some of the functions of the domestic plug-ins, change ip after the return to normal. So it is necessary to ping the ip first, ping can not be deleted to re-rent a (or change ip).

Ping method: Right click the Windows logo in the lower left corner of your computer > click "Run" > type "cmd" and press "OK".

Enter the screen below and type ping+space+your server ip address (red box below) and press enter.

If the prompt is the same as the figure below, 0 is lost, and the round trip time is more than 100ms, it means that it can ping through and the ip is not blocked.

If you get the same message as below, "request timeout" or 100% is lost (must be 0 loss means no problem), there is a high probability that the ip is blocked, follow the above steps to rent a new server.

If your server has already built a website and so do not want to discard, you can use a change of IP to unblock while retaining data. The following is the official Vultr IP change method, tested and available. The approximate method is 1 - a snapshot backup of the previously rented server (see the backup section below for details); 2 - rent a new server in the step of selecting the system, select Snapshot, will display the previously completed snapshot backup, click to select, other registration steps remain unchanged. After the new server is rented, it will have all the content of the old server, including websites, pagoda panels and so on. As long as the domain name is resolved to the new server IP, you can continue to use the previous URL to log in/open the website, pagoda panel and so on. After the new server has tested the content to access it normally, you can turn off the old server and delete it.

7) Run scores to the server (optional)

For various reasons, even if the same configuration, the same room, while renting the server performance will be inconsistent! It is recommended that after the server is rented, do not build the environment and so on, immediately install the score software to run the score test.

If the pagoda panel build, after installing the pagoda first do not install LNMP and other environments, first go to the 1 software store to install the following runtime software, check the runtime.

We try to rent 2 servers with the same configuration, the same system, the same room to compare performance, this is the first rented server scores

This is the second rented server run score

Obviously the second server has better CPU performance and disk read/write, if the server score is above 13,000 it's OK, if it's below 12,000 (run a few more scores to test) it's recommended to re-open a server.

Vultr Tutorial

The following is the background use tutorial, if you can not read or website revision please comment message, we will update.

1）Familiar with backend

"Compute" in the "Products" section is the server list and details. Click on the corresponding service name to enter the server settings interface, you can check the usage and modify the settings.

In the upper right corner of the server details there are buttons for quick reboot, shutdown, and buy new server features.

Click on "Make a Payment" to enter the top up screen, you can choose the appropriate way to top up your balance. The green amount in the upper right corner is the account balance (if it shows a negative red number, you are in arrears), and the black amount on the left side is the server cost for the month so far (hourly rate).

2) Contact Customer Service

If you need to contact customer service, click on "Support"."Go to the support page and click Open Ticket in the upper right corner to create a work order.Vultr does not have an online customer service, so you can only contact the work order.

After submitting a work order, you can see the submitted work order in Support. If it is fast, there will be a reply in a few minutes, if it is slow, it may take a few hours, but usually it will take less than 24 hours to recover, and an email will be sent to notify you of the reply.

3) Revision of information

If you want to modify your profile, click Account to enter the profile page, you can modify your cell phone, email address, etc.

4) Upgrade server configuration

First, click into the "Products" section, click on the corresponding server in the server list interface, and then go to "Setting" > "Change Plan", as shown in the figure below.green boxFor the host's current package configuration, select the target package configuration in the red box, and click the "Upgrade" button to upgrade the configuration.

If there are not enough hosts left in the server room with available packages, you will be prompted that you cannot upgrade. In this case, you need to copy the server to another server room with the package before upgrading. Method: Take a snapshot backup of the host first and then open the new host, select the snapshot backup of the old server in the operating system, select the server room with the target configuration package and then open the host. After the new host is opened, remember to resolve the website domain name above the host to the IP address of the new server.

5) Data backup

Be sure to do data backups! It is recommended that both site backups (UpdraftPlus) and server backups be done. In-site backups are free and can restore specific data for a specific site alone, Snapshots backups can restore the entire server even if the server is deleted/damaged (forgotten to renew and deleted or hacked) and have the highest security. Kryptonian players are recommended to choose Backup backup for server backups, while civilian players choose Snapshots backup. Panel (pagoda) backup will take up hard disk space and is not recommended.

Server Backup (chargeable)

Vultr server backups are divided into Backup backups and Snapshoots snapshot backups, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

Backup Backup
Backup is easy to understand, is to automatically backup the entire server on a regular basis, retain several copies of backup data, when you need to restore the server, click the corresponding time period of the backup data can be automatically restored, the advantage of automatic backup is very convenient, the disadvantage is the high price.

Backup price is approximately 20% of the monthly server price. 6 USD/month package server automatic backup price is about 1.2 USD/month, 120 USD/month server package automatic backup price is 24 USD/month. And so on.

Snapshots Snapshot Backup
Snapshots (hereinafter referred to as snapshot backups) are manual backups that require you to manually tap on the backup yourself in order for it to be backed up. It is billed according to the total size of the backup package, $0.05 per GB. The advantage is that it is cheap, but the disadvantage is that you need to backup manually. Click "Snapshots"Go to the backup screen below.Enter a random name in Label and click "Take Snapshot" to start the backup.

After backup, the backed up data is displayed at the bottom of the page. You can delete the backup and restore the data via backup. Be sure to back up regularly to avoid data loss. We are manually backing up at least once a week and keeping several backups to save money and be safe.

One of our servers only hosts 2 new sites, although there are no articles and products but the snapshot backup out of the data has 4.24GB, a month to pay $0.212. Usually a small to medium sized website should have 200~400M articles + product images.

2 normal sites should be backed up with about 5G of data and the snapshot backup cost is $0.25 per month. For the same server with Backup backup, the monthly backup cost is $2.40. Snapshot backups are much less expensive. It is recommended that you should always take snapshot backups regularly and remember to delete old backups to save money.

The advantages of server backup are the highest security and the most comprehensive backup. Even if the server is deleted, all data can be restored, including the operating system.

The disadvantage is the lack of flexibility, the recovery can only be done for the entire server, you can not select a specific site individually for recovery. If there are multiple sites on the server and one of them is corrupted, the data of the other sites will also be recovered through server recovery.

Admin Panel Backup (free)

If you have installed a server administration panel such as Pagoda, you can backup/restore your website directly in the administration panel. The panel backup is free and you can backup/restore a website or database individually. The disadvantage is that you may not be able to restore the data if the server is deleted or you cannot login to the admin panel, and the security is not as high as server backup.

How to backup Pagoda: Go to Scheduled Tasks > Select the website to backup and the backup content to fill in the task name and click Add Task to complete the automatic backup. Database and website content cannot be backed up at the same time, you need to create a new backup task to back up database separately.

Through the panel backup, the hard disk space will be exponentially consumed very quickly, if at this time and then back up in the server, the data is very large, repeat backup. So it is recommended to backup only in one place, if it is a panel backup, it is best to backup to a network disk or COS object storage, and the backup interface selects to delete the local backup.

Site backup (free)

We install all our clients' websitesUpdraftPlus The Backup plugin automatically backs up website data on a regular basis toOneDrive (5G free space), theGoogle Drive(15G free space) and other free web sites with one-click recovery. And you can backup/restore database, themes, plugins, etc. separately.

Microsoft OneDrive can Taobao to find someone to expand the capacity, about 5 yuan to 10G, 55 yuan to 1T.

The advantage of site backup is convenience, you can choose to backup/restore database, theme, plugins, uploaded files, etc. separately. And you can separately backup the database before upgrading the plug-in, and restore the site by restoring the database separately if the plug-in has bugs that cause problems with the site. Site backup can also store the backup data in a third-party network disk, security greatly improved.

Because of the Great Firewall, domestic websites can only connect to Microsoft OneDrive in the UpdraftPlus list, and the data transfer speed is slower but within acceptable limits.UpdraftPlus Premium DownloadYou can check it out if you need to.

Common problems and solutions

Vultr hosting process encountered any problems welcome the comments below, questions will be answered. Server lag, security firewall, database version switch, website operation and maintenance can be asked.

1) Server lag

Some people rent a low-configuration server, install the pagoda panel, install a small WordPress site, no visits often lagging, and then blame the pagoda panel card, blame the server does not work. In fact, do not know how to optimize, chaotic installation of plug-ins, and the server, pagoda has nothing to do.

Possible reasons for server lag:

1. The panel is not set up properly, e.g., low profile high version, high profile low version, PHP extensions not enabled, PHP/MySQL parameters set incorrectly, etc;
2. There is no firewall in place to block malicious access and crawlers;
3. Messy installation of a large number of complex plug-ins, blind folding station, resulting in too many tasks in the background or stuck in a dead loop;
4. Caching plugins, Woocommerce product filtering plugins, etc. are running and taking up great resources;

One of our customers use Vultr 1-core 2G RAM hosting, Astra + Elementor + Woocommerce build, more than 600 products, product list page and more than a dozen kinds of attribute filtering function. His site is not stuck, using Elementor to edit the page is not stuck.

For example, the Wp-Rocket plug-in preload function is very CPU-intensive, and a small configuration server will basically lead to a full CPU load as soon as this function is enabled, and the website will be very stuck, click to viewSolutionThis is the case when you disable the plugin and re-enable it. Sometimes after upgrading the plug-in will also lead to jamming, may be a problem when upgrading lead to a code dead loop and so on, in this case, disable the plug-in and then re-enable on the line.

So Diamo is inTheExcellent foreign trade hosting comparison recommendation》The article says: do simple static website, such as foreign trade sites, personal blogs, etc. with shared hosting is more appropriate, recommendedChemiCloud HostingThe performance of shared hosting is not as good as Vultr. Although the performance of shared hosting is not as good as Vultr, shared hosting has professionals to optimize the configuration and set up firewalls, so it is possible to run a simple static small website than Vultr.low configurationVPS hosting smooth.

Vultr is more suitable for use to do more websites or high performance requirements of large/complex sites, low configuration Vultr to build simple static small sites is fine, but to optimize the server configuration, do not mess with the installation of so many complex plug-ins.

A customer website using Vultr VPS, 2H2G, put 3 2B new website. The site had little traffic and few products, and it got stuck directly after installing Little Rocket. After adjusting the preload frequency, the situation improved, but still stuck, and the server returned to normal after adjusting and removing the unused CSS frequency.

If Elementor is the cause of the jam, it is likely that the page building process has encountered an error loop. In this case, set each page built with Elementor to draft status (equivalent to disabling the page) until the problem recovers.

You can also try Debug to see if the plugin/theme has errors that cause it to get stuck.

PHP is currently the highest recommended installation version 8.0, 8.1 many plug-ins are not compatible with the theme will be a lot of errors, resulting in lag.

It is recommended to install MySQL version 5.6 with 1-2G memory, and MySQL version 5.7 with 2-4G memory, and MySQL version 8.0 with 8G or more, compiled and installed.

Pagoda also need to be configured to play server performance, Swap must be set, MySQL and PHP should also be adjusted according to the operation of the parameters. There are a lot of tutorials in the Pagoda forum, go see more. Recommend the following 2 articles

MySQL Performance Tuning via Pagoda Panel

How to set up Liunx panel to make full use of server performance

(2) The website suddenly does not open

If the entire site, including the Pagoda backend, won't open, it's usually because the server was deleted by the merchant after being in arrears for too long (a month or so). Log in to the Vultr.com server background, go to Make a Payment or History under the Billing section to check your balance. If your account is closed when you log in or your billing balance shows "Owe", then you are in arrears and the site is having problems.

If you are in arrears, there will be weekly emails to remind you to pay, so watch out for the emails. Some people don't have the habit of reading the mail or the mail goes into the spam folder resulting in overdue payments.

Solution: If you can log in to your account, you can charge it right away. After a few hours (sometimes a little longer) the site will automatically resume.

If the account is closed and you can't log in, send an email from the email address of the registered server to support@vultr.comThe content of the email is simply to say that the server was deleted due to forgetting to renew the account. The content of the email as long as you say forget to renew the server was deleted, please help to activate the account we immediately charged in, customer service will be happy to help. Below is a sample email we wrote, you can copy and paste it directly and send it to us for reference only.

Dear Vultr,
My account (this email address) has been closed because I forgot to renew, can you please help activate it so I can pay the bill and restore my site.
Thanks in advance,

After the server is restored, an email notification will be sent (pay attention to check the email), immediately log in and fill the money in. Follow the tutorial above to reopen a server, select Snapshot in the step of selecting the system, it will show the snapshot backup completed before, click to select, other registration steps remain unchanged. After the new server is rented, it will have all the content of the old server, including websites, pagoda panels and so on. As long as the domain name is resolved to the new server IP, you can continue to use the previous URL to login/open the website, pagoda panel and so on.

If you have not made any backups on the server side before, the data will not be recovered. If you have backed up your data in the WordPress backend using a plugin like UpdraftPlus, directly open a brand new server, build a pagoda panel and a wordpress backend and then restore the data through a plugin like UpdraftPlus. Remember to resolve the domain name to the new server IP, the new server may be the same as the deleted server IP address.
