High-performance, cost-effective co-location of servers.
In response to customer demand, Diamor offersShared Vultr VPS foreign trade serverbusiness.Only available to our website building clientsWe refuse to sell imitation brands and other high-risk sites to join. Reasonable control of the number and type of sites, without any performance limitations, security, stability, high-speed, our own foreign trade sites also put here.

Rent your own server, if you want to run smoothly, play site speed and performance at least 1H2G configuration (10 ~ 20 U.S. dollars a month), but also their own configuration / maintenance server. Cost money, time and effort results are not necessarily good.

Low configuration VPS server can not afford to run high version database and PHP, memory and so on easily exhausted, at least 1H2G, but also have to configure a good server environment regular maintenance. Shared host CPU, disk read and write restrictions are serious, you have to use a high-grade package and buy a few years at a time to be cost-effective, financial pressure.

We share Vultr VPS server in USA, using AMD CPU, NVMe storage (better than SSD), multi-core high memory. Smooth running, dedicated maintenance, optimized firewall according to WordPress.

B2B website co-location price: 6 US dollars/month/unit.
B2B website co-location price.7~10 US dollars/month/unit.

Advantages of shared servers.

  1. Lower prices, 1/3 - 2/3 cheaper than renting them individually.
  2. Better performance (several times the performance) and faster, with no CPU or disk read/write limitations;
  3. Large memory for better and faster installation of MySQL 8/ MariaDB 10.7+, PHP 8x.
  4. No need to configure their own environment, maintain, upgrade and not worry about forgetting to renew and being removed by the merchant.
  5. Free relocation of sites (incoming and outgoing), with no conditions or restrictions to move sites at any time.
  6. Installation of enterprise-grade firewalls and abnormal data monitoring for greater stability and security.

Considering the security issues, do not provide a shared server management background to joint customers. The reason for the cheap shared lease is the full and reasonable use of idle resources (foreign trade website traffic is not large), site ownership and control is still in the hands of the customer. Access, CPU, disk read and write no restrictions, dissatisfied with the site can be moved at any time.

1) Select host type

You can only choose the following chart "Cloud Compute", the other 3 hosting types are the lowest price from $28 / month, too expensive. Foreign trade to build a website can not use and can not afford to use such a good server.

2) Select CPU and hard disk capacity

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 thirdintel High Frequency (HF server) is the old package of HF server, the fourth worst performance lowest price is not recommended.

Pasted 131

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 servers) have the best and most stable performance.It is recommended to build websites. Note: AMD server hard drive capacity is a little less.

Pasted 127

AMD CPU High Performance (High Performance Server) server has 2 more advantages: 1 - more price packages and more choices; 2 - more CPUs in the same price package (see the comparison below). Figure 1 is the AMD High Performance server package and Figure 2 is the Intel High Frequency server package.

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

Pasted 78

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

Pasted 77

AMD server CPU scores are almostintel High Frequency Intel's high frequency server CPU scores are twice as high, and the hard drive and memory scores of the two are basically the same. It seems that Vultr has finally figured out AMD CPUs and is giving it the powerful performance it deserves.

(November 2022 old content) We tested and found that AMD's latest machine performance is rather poor! It is reasonable to say thatAMD CPU High Performance and intel High Performance The performance of these 2 new servers should be better thanintel High Frequency But from the score situation both CPU performance and disk read/write speed areintel High Frequency Lead.

I had wondered if the Pagoda score was inaccurate and even asked Vultr customer service if the new server was better than the old one, but Vultr customer service said that server performance was affected by many things and they could not determine which server would perform best for my site, so I could test it myself and choose the best server.

So I put aintel High Frequency The old site on top of the server is replicated and relocated toAMD CPU High Performance Server comparison, the 2 server parameters are the same, the website plug-in settings and so on are the same, the resultsAMD CPU High Performance The server above the site background card into a dog. AMD above the site is not accessible, no CC attacks, just a few pages routinely open in the background, in the pagoda shows CPU and memory there is still a surplus of cases directly running blocking 100%.

I found these 3 server performance test videos on Youtube, and the test results are the same as the Pagoda score. You can check the video if you are interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyraIgQ4ViI.

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.

Pasted 64

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.

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 2023-05-6: Centos 7 has been discontinued and is not the official version, we recommend using Debian 10 x64 instead.

Pasted 136

When building an environment like Pagoda Panel, it is recommended to choose MariaDB for faster database, 1G memory to install 10.1 (equivalent to mysql5.6), 2-8G memory to install 10.4 (equivalent to mysql5.7), and more than 8G memory to install the latest version (equivalent to mysql8). It is recommended to choose compiled installation for large memory and extreme installation for small memory.

If you are a veteran and know how to build a website and want to install OpenLiteSpeed, click "Marketplace Apps" and choose "OpenLiteSpeed WordPress" or "CyberPanel" to install.Newbies don't get thisThe probability of having problems and a slower website is very high!

8) Check whether the IP is blocked

Note: After renting a new server be sure to ping the server's IP address first to see if it is blocked domestically!

Because many national people take Vultr server to take the airport caused a lot of server ip address (especially the Los Angeles server room) by the domestic Great Firewall (GFW) blocked. One of our customers server ip address is blocked, resulting in not over the wall can not log in, but also can not use some of the domestic plug-in features, after changing the ip back to normal. So you must ping the ip first, if the ping can not be removed to rent a new (or change the ip).

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

cmd

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

ping ip address

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.

ping ip pass

If the same as the following chart prompted "request timeout", 100% lost, ip is likely to be blocked, re-rent a server it.

ping ip address

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.

Vultr change ip method

 

9) Check the server running score

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 builder, install the pagoda first do not install LNMP and other environments, first directly install the runtime software to view the runtime.

Pasted 90

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

Pasted 88

This is the second rented server run score

Pasted 89

Obviously the second server has better CPU performance and disk read/write, so keep this server and delete the first one.

If the server run score of 15,000 or more is OK, if less than 14,000 (more run scores several times to test) is recommended to reopen a server.

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 20% of the monthly server price. 6 USD/month package server automatic backup price is 1.2 USD/month, 12 USD/month server package automatic backup price is 2.4 USD/month.

Click Products at the top right corner to enter the server interface, and click Snapshots at the top to enter the backup interface below. Click Backup to go to the backup screen.

Snapshot Backup

Snapshots Snapshot Backup
Snapshots (hereafter referred to as snapshot backups) are manual backups that require you to manually tap the backup yourself before it will backup. It is billed at $0.05 per GB for the total size of the backup package. The advantage is that it is cheap, but the disadvantage is that you need to back up manually. Click Products at the top right corner to enter the server interface, click Snapshots at the top to enter the backup interface below> Click Add Snapshot at the top right corner.

Perform a snapshot backup

Enter a random name in Label and click "Take Snapshot" to start the backup.

Start Snapshot Backup 

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.

Snapshot Backup Pricing

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, recovery can only be done for the whole server, and it is impossible to select specific sites individually for recovery. If there are multiple sites on the server and one of them is damaged, the data of the other sites will be recovered through server recovery, and the content uploaded in these days will be lost.

 

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.

Pagoda Panel Backup Website

 

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.

UpdraftPlus Backup 1

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

Server lag is a very common problem that newbies often encounter. Many people encounter server lag will feel that the server does not work, or be attacked, in fact, in the vast majority of cases is the website itself out of order.

Pasted 96

Some customers can not afford to spend money, renting 1H1G, 1H2G low configuration server to build a website. The new website runs smoothly at first, but after a period of time suddenly stuck, the site is obviously not visited, nor attacked, nor any complicated operations. We investigated and found that the plug-in caused the jam.

Server clogging first try to disable all plugins in the background of the site, switch to 2022 and other default themes to check. If it's back to normal, try to enable the plugins/themes one by one to check who is causing the server to be blocked, then prescribe the right remedy.

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 viewSolution.... Sometimes upgrade plug-ins can also lead to jamming, may be a problem when upgrading the code caused by dead loops and so on, this case disable plug-ins and re-enable on the line.

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 process of building the page encountered an error dead loop and got stuck. In this case, set the pages built with Elementor to draft status one by one (equivalent to disabling the page) until the problem is restored.

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

2) The website cannot be opened

If the entire website including the Pagoda backend cannot be opened, it is usually because the server has been deleted by the merchant after too long a period of default (about a month). Login to the Vultr.com server backend and go to billing to check the balance. If the account is closed or the billing balance shows Owe when you log in, then the site is in default and there is a problem.

Weekly emails are sent to remind you when you owe a bill, but most people are not in the habit of checking their emails regularly or they go to the spam folder and become overdue.

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.
