Hello, I am looking at the option to buy a VPS server with the following configuration:
Default CPANEL
CENTOS7

This for about 30 clients with normal wordpress, with an average of 150,000 visits per month.

I'm thinking of a VPS virtual server with 4 GB ram, 4 vCPU. Is something ok like that?

The idea is to find the most economical, but that it works correctly

Unfortunately, it's really difficult to tell you based on just that, visits aren't the only factor you would want to weigh in here. You may want to discuss this with a system administrator further for more assistance.


Thanks!

As @cPanelLauren writes, there are many factors here. Type of sites, webshops, peak visits, bad plugins, bad coding, heavy DB usage - list goes on :)
In general, I would say that 4GB RAM sounds a little bit small though. I would probably go for 16-32GB RAM and 4-8 vCPUs as VPS's are relatively cheap nowadays anyway.

But the good thing with most VPS/cloud providers is that you can scale as your need increases, right? :) - So maybe start off with a 8GB RAM VPS and grow from there.
