Server Performance

Average hosting uptime

Miss Hosting has invested generously in its infrastructure, which is evident from their average uptime of 99.9% across all levels of hosting plans. They pay special attention to key factors that influence customers’ experience, and since uptime is one of them, they make sure their customers get nothing lesser of the best.

Although Miss Hosting’s average uptime isn’t exceptional, it is fairly on a par with many bigger hosting providers.

Website Speed

Website Speed is another factor that can make or break customers’ experience with their hosting service provider. Miss Hosting doesn’t seem to miss out on this aspect and cares enough to give their clients a decent website speed.

We ran website speed test on one of our dummy websites hosted by Miss Hosting and recorded an average speed of ______.

Server Response Time

There’s a slight difference between website speed and server response time you should know. While website speed determines how fast a website page loads, server response time, on the other hand, determines how fast the content of the page loads. Good page speed makes no sense if server response time does not catch up.

This is where Miss Hosting strikes a perfect balance between the two, in order to give end-users a fast browsing experience.

VPS Hosting

Miss Hosting makes sure that your website gets nearly all things unlimited and flexible, along with various security features to keep your website up and running, no matter how large or media-heavy it may be.

In a shared hosting environment, you are likely to pay the price for resource starvation caused by other websites on the server, whereas with dedicated hosting, you can kiss goodbye to such woes.
