High traffic websites may require bigger data transfer speed to avoid frequent traffic spikes. There are possibilities of your server crashing and slowing down due to high traffic which can have a negative impact on your business performance and productivity. You must consider increasing the port speed on your dedicated server. Go4hosting offers dedicated servers with 100Mb/s port as their default configuration. If you have decided to increase the uplink port of your server, you can do up to 1Gb/s at an additional fee. Uplink port speed is the physical link between your dedicated server network card and the switch it is connected to.
It is important that you understand that once you increase your port speed, the data and information content will reach the internet faster which will lead to a larger quantity of bandwidth consumption. It is recommended that you consider ordering for additional bandwidth also when you request for increasing the port speed to have an improved performance.
