Choose the infrastructure for your workload

Three sizes of business, each sized from an assumed traffic figure rather than a measured one. If you know your own numbers, tell us and the estimate changes with them.

Medium WordPress Development

11–50 people · ~50,000 visits a month


On request

Shared Hosting

  • Single Core
  • 3 GB RAM
  • 30 GB storage
  • Managed

The same build as small — at 3.5 requests a second this workload still fits comfortably, so there is nothing to gain by paying for more.

Large WordPress Development

51+ people · ~500,000 visits a month


$92 USD USD

per month · VPS

  • 2 Cores
  • 6 GB RAM
  • 50 GB storage
  • Managed

About 34.7 requests a second at peak, holding roughly 2 GB of working data.

These figures are assumptions stated out loud, not predictions about your business. Memory, cores and disk can all be raised on the same server later, usually within the hour, with no rebuild and no new IP address — so starting one size below the estimate is normally the cheaper mistake.

Which tiers suit WordPress Development

Including the ones that do not, and why — that is usually the more useful half.

Infrastructure Verdict Why
Shared Hosting Managed space on a shared server Recommended A brochure site with light traffic runs comfortably on shared hosting, and the managed platform means no server to look after.
VPS Flexible virtual infrastructure with full root access Recommended A VPS gives you root, your own PHP and Nginx versions, and room for the site to grow past what shared hosting allows.
VDS Virtual server with resources pinned to you alone Workable Worth moving to once the site fronts an application rather than pages, or when a slow neighbour has cost you a lead.
Dedicated Server An entire physical server, configured to your specification Workable More machine than a brochure site needs, but the right answer when it sits alongside other systems on the same box.
Bare Metal Physical compute for sustained, demanding workloads Not this one Bare metal is sized for sustained heavy compute; a brochure site would leave almost all of it idle.

WordPress Development workloads you can host

WordPress is cheap to serve cached and expensive to serve uncached, so the object cache is doing most of the work.

  • WordPress multisite
  • Object cache
  • Media library
  • Plugin & core updates
  • Staging clones

Distances are from Wisconsin. Round trips are estimated from fibre distance, not measured — the figure your users see depends on where they are.

WordPress Development in Wisconsin

The closest of our 24 data centres to Wisconsin is Chicago, about 137 miles away. Round-trip time is set by physical distance more than by anything else, so the nearest site is usually the right one.

Wisconsin has a population of about 1,048, which is why the small build above is the one most likely to fit a WordPress Development business here — though the other two are a click away if it does not. Local time is America/Chicago, so routine maintenance and backups are scheduled against your overnight rather than ours.

Data stays in the jurisdiction you choose, which matters if you are working to state privacy laws such as the CCPA. Pricing is quoted in USD, and the figure is the same wherever the machine physically sits.

Network reach from Wisconsin

Estimated from fibre distance rather than measured, and stated as a range. Your own access network decides the rest.

every one of our 24 locations costs the same — so the only thing worth optimising is which of them your users are closest to. At the small size assumed above, that is roughly 10,000 requests a day crossing that link.

WordPress Development hosting in Wisconsin — FAQs

What size server does a WordPress Development business in Wisconsin need?
Working from about 5,000 visits a month, we would start at 1 core, 3 GB of memory and 30 GB of storage on Shared Hosting. That is an assumption about traffic rather than a measurement of yours — if you know your real figures, the estimate changes with them.
Where would the server for my Wisconsin business actually run?
The closest of our 24 data centres to Wisconsin is , about 220 km away. You can choose any of the others at the same price — the server is wherever suits your users, not wherever you happen to be.
Is a VPS enough for WordPress Development, or do we need a dedicated server?
A brochure site with light traffic runs comfortably on shared hosting, and the managed platform means no server to look after. You can move up a tier later on the same data and the same IP address.
Can you host wordPress multisite for us?
Yes — wordPress multisite is exactly the kind of workload these builds are sized for, alongside object cache and media library. WordPress is cheap to serve cached and expensive to serve uncached, so the object cache is doing most of the work.
Can we start smaller and grow?
Yes. Memory, cores and disk can all be raised on the same server, usually within the hour, with no rebuild and no new IP address. Starting one size below your estimate is normally the cheaper mistake.
