Choosing the Right Hosting Plan

Shared, WordPress, VPS, or reseller? A pragmatic breakdown of when each tier actually makes sense — based on real traffic numbers, not marketing copy.

Hosting selection looks complex because it's pitched complex. There are really four categories, each with a clear scope. This article compares them in concrete numbers.

Shared hosting

Static sites, portfolios, small business cards. Under 5,000 monthly visits. Resources are shared with other tenants on the same server — that's why pricing sits below 10 €/month.

Doesn't work well for: WordPress with heavy plugins, e-commerce, custom Node apps.

WordPress hosting

Shared hosting tuned for WordPress: LiteSpeed Cache, object cache (Redis/Memcached), auto plugin updates. Right for blogs, business sites, small stores up to ~20,000 visits/month.

At GrafixHost: every WP plan ships with LiteSpeed Cache + Redis + auto malware scanning.

VPS hosting

Dedicated vCPU, RAM, NVMe. Isolated — neighbors can't burn through your resources. Right for: Laravel, Node.js apps, Docker, dev environments, e-commerce with real revenue.

Requires basic Linux. Or pick Managed VPS where we handle the server config.

Reseller hosting

White-label for agencies and developers. cPanel + WHM, optional WHMCS license. You earn the spread between your price and ours — typical margin 40-60%.

Quick rule

| Monthly traffic | Plan | | ------------------- | ----------------- | | < 5K | Shared | | 5K–20K + WordPress | WordPress hosting | | 20K+ or custom code | VPS | | Reselling | Reseller |

When in doubt, start smaller. Upgrades happen with no downtime; downgrades save money if the capacity wasn't needed.
