@IRJ Have you tried 4GB? Seems like your driving a lot of traffic - 2 might not cut it.

I haven't because it's double the price. I am looking at migrating all my hosting to A2. I am trying to keep web cost and social media costs under $50 a month.

2GB can potentially handle a lot of traffic. Millions of hits a month, depending on the platform.

I have about 26 plugins which I am told for a large wordpress site is common and perhaps on the low end.

@IRJ that's about 21 too many.

That's a lot more than I normally see, but I'm not authority here. But I do know that the plugins themselves and not the number of them would be a bigger factor. One bad one is worse than thirty good ones.

Definitely about 21 more than I'm used to.
