I am starting a few different servers.... well in honesty 1 for now but it will be multiple servers as I can swing it.
Basically I am will have a few services that I provide, the most basic being shared hosting... I will offer some smaller packages for real cheap to some local students to give them a platform for learning html, css, etc. so Id imagine those packages will need to be pretty hardened from screw ups.
My other service will be Wordpress stuff... I want to offer both wordpress single install blogs, if they want it. As well as multisite.
I personally will be using 2 wordpress multisites, and I predict that these will get most the customers I have and 1 of the multis I can see getting a lot of traffic so I would imagine that would eventually need a dedicated.
However as Im just starting and I have no worries about downtime yet since we haven't officially started up yet I want to learn about how to optimize my servers for what I want to offer... ideally I could have 1 setup for all of them but I'm sure that's not realistic so if anyone has any tips on how to optimize my servers for optimal performance, while maintaining security please feel free to share them
Thank you
