I have a client who needs to run their store on Magento. They get 10-12k visitors a month. It is also well-known that Magento is very resource intensive. Be honest--is WebFaction's hosting up to the task? Do we need to add extra RAM to the account? Any recommendations or gotchas we should know? Thanks in advance! asked 26 Apr '13, 12:43 Alliance |

We host plenty of them already, and we have an unofficial installer available here: WebFaction Magento Installer You shouldn't need any extra RAM - since we serve PHP sites as CGI by default, all of your requests should be short-lived, so you won't have long-running processes for the Magento site. Our general recommendations are:
Hope that helps! answered 26 Apr '13, 12:48 seanf Thanks for the quick response, seanf. The client already has a WebFaction account, so I think we'll use it to develop and test the site before we launch it. I'll try to remember to keep everyone posted on how it goes.
