In the image we can see how there is a drastic drop in web traffic due to the change of server, and how shortly after the traffic is recovered, but with a figure lower than that which was before the migration. Finally, 3 months later, the values ​​and the lost web traffic are recovered.

3.- Optimized for loading speed
One of the aspects that the guys at Raiola Networks have managed to surprise me the most is the optimization of the speed of my Blog, reducing the loading speed by half, going from just over 3.5 seconds of loading to 1.7 seconds.

Below I will explain some of the components of their VPS that make the loading speed reduce to the minimum possible:

Nginx as a reverse proxy for Apache and cache : Nginx allows you to serve static files from websites and works as a page cache using Memcached (in RAM) to store the cache, with this it achieves very high efficiency when serving pages, especially on viral sites where the improvement is almost 100%.
ZendOPCache as OPCache for PHP: This is something that hosting providers do not usually implement, since very few manage to make an OPCache work correctly and be compatible with all CMS and PHP scripts on the market (in cPanel it is almost impossible to make it work 100%).
OPCache pre-caches processed PHP code and stores list of central african republic consumer email it in RAM. When PHP code that has already been processed and cached is executed, response times are reduced by more than half.

Memcached as an object cache: Memcached allows us to save cache in the server's RAM, where access times are up to 20 times faster. Normally, when it comes to Wordpress, Memcached is used with W3 Total Cache or with Flexicache , which reduces resource consumption and considerably improves response times.

VestaCP as a Panel: It may not be the most well-known, but it is a simple, flexible panel with potential. It may not be the ideal control panel for having large nodes with many shared hosting clients inside, as it lacks some important features for mass control, but it is an excellent panel with very low resource consumption. Its strong points are its excellent backup system, far superior to that of cPanel and Plesk , and its control of Nginx and its cache through preconfigured templates. Its consumption graph system offers real-time information on the status of the services, which is why people tend to like it quite a lot.
4.- Secure Hosting
When we hire a hosting company we think that this is something obvious and that any company will offer us the necessary security guarantees so that we do not have any problems with our website or blog, but this is not the case. We have to read the small print that they do not tell us and that can seriously harm our project from a web positioning or SEO point of view.
