WordPress VPS hosting in Amsterdam, Dublin and Prishtina

WordPress VPS hosting from RS Computers

A WordPress VPS is a virtual server where the web server, PHP and the database belong to your sites alone. On shared hosting hundreds of accounts use the same PHP workers and the same database server, so a busy neighbour slows your pages and the host decides your PHP version, memory limit and cron rules. On a VPS you set them.

RS Computers runs these servers on KVM in three cities, with the same six plans and prices in each. Every plan has full root access, a client area to reboot, reinstall, open a console and restore backups, and a 99% monthly uptime SLA. VPS plans use shared vCPUs; VDS plans have dedicated vCPUs and a 10 Gb/s port for busy shops and agencies.

Shared hosting or a WordPress VPS?

Shared hosting is fine for a small brochure site. A VPS starts to pay off when the site earns money, when several client sites share one bill, or when plugins need more PHP memory, longer timeouts or extensions the host will not install.

What WordPress needs from a server

WordPress's own requirements page recommends PHP 8.3 or greater, MySQL 8.0 or greater or MariaDB 10.11 or greater, and HTTPS support, with Apache or Nginx as the web server. Debian 13 and Ubuntu 24.04 on our plans ship versions that meet all of these. The current release on 12 October 2026 was WordPress 7.1.3, published on 6 October (WordPress releases).

Memory decides the plan. In our own tests a small WordPress site used about 200 to 300 MB under load. A WooCommerce stack used under 300 MB after serving its pages, with each PHP worker close to 100 MB, and an uncached checkout page was built in about 0.13 seconds on the server (our WooCommerce lab). Each extra PHP worker lets one more uncached visitor be served at the same moment, so a shop with many logged-in buyers needs more memory than a blog with the same traffic.

The plan cards above list each plan's exact vCPU, memory and disk. You can move to a bigger plan later from the client area with a short reboot.

Setting up WordPress on your VPS

You do not need to be a Linux administrator. Three routes, from easiest to most hands-on:

• A free control panel. CloudPanel, HestiaCP and similar panels install Nginx, PHP, MariaDB and free Let's Encrypt certificates, then create a WordPress site from a form. Our free VPS control panels comparison shows which one fits.
• Our step-by-step guide. WordPress on a VPS goes from a fresh server to a live, HTTPS-secured site in about twenty minutes.
• We set it up. Installation, migration and tuning are quoted on request, based on what you need, by Telegram or email.

Moving an existing WordPress site

Most WordPress VPS customers arrive with a site already running somewhere else. The safe order is: build the new server, copy files and database, preview the site on the new server with your real domain, then freeze changes, make a final copy and switch DNS. Our WordPress migration guide was tested end to end with WP-CLI and covers search-replace for serialized data, cron jobs, and how to keep your Google rankings by leaving URLs unchanged.

Which city for your WordPress server?

• Amsterdam is one of Europe's best-connected internet hubs and suits visitors across the EU.
• Dublin suits audiences in Ireland and the UK, and keeps data inside the EU.
• Prishtina serves visitors in Kosovo and the Balkans over short local paths; read why host in Kosovo.

Pick the city closest to most of your visitors. A CDN in front of WordPress helps far-away visitors with images and cached pages, but uncached pages such as checkout always come from your server.

Before you launch

• Point your domain's A record to the dedicated IPv4 and the AAAA record to the IPv6 address, then issue a free certificate in your panel.
• Turn off WordPress's visitor-triggered cron and run wp cron event run --due-now from a system cron every few minutes.
• Send email through a mail provider on SMTP port 587, which works from day one. Outbound port 25 is blocked on new servers and opened on request.
• Keep your own off-site copy as well as our free weekly backups: our off-site backup guide shows how.
• Lock down the login and keep plugins few and updated; the security section of our WordPress guide lists the basics.
