The first step toward resolving the issue is checking whether the server is responding to requests, or if it has really “gone offline.”

A very simple test is to employ ping (ICMP) packets to test the server’s status. Follow the steps below to verify whether your server is online:

1. On Windows, open Command Prompt. (Mac OS X and Linux users can open Terminal.)
2. Type the following command, including your server’s IP address: ping -t 0.0.0.0

If the server is online and responsive, you will see results returned quickly, with specific readings for each successful “ping.” If the server is offline, you will see slow responses like “Request timed out” or “Could not reach destination host.”

[From the RedArray Knowledgebase: https://www.redarray.net/portal/knowledgebase/16/How-To-Check-if-a-Server-is-OnlineorOffline-Ping.html]

1. Access your Linux server via SSH.
2. Run the following command, which will initiate a transfer of a large test file from Cachefly’s CDN: wget -O /dev/null http://cachecefly.cachefly.net/100mb.test
3. Note the transfer speed and connection quality as the file downloads.

Download tests such as this are an approximate, although generally reliable, method of testing download speed.

There are some important points to consider before searching for dedicated server hosting:

What is your budget?
By nature, dedicated servers are more expensive than hosting solutions like virtual servers or shared servers. It is important to consider that if your budget is low, it may be wiser to search for a virtualized solution (like a high-quality VPS).

What is your current resource usage?
This is the primary factor that should be considered when thinking about the necessity of a dedicated server. If your website, database, or other application has “outgrown” its current server or hosting account, then it could be very beneficial to move to dedicated hosting. Dedicated servers are most useful for medium- to high-activity applications, which not only require dedicated resources to be in use constantly, but also require the availability of additional resources to accommodate activity spikes and periods of high load.

Do you have special software requirements, security requirements, or bandwidth requirements?
Often, other types of hosting are restrictive when applications require making specific adjustments to the operating system, or specific firewall/security modifications, or if they require dedicated bandwidth. All of these are provided with a dedicated server, resulting in significantly easier and more streamlined management of many system aspects.

With these questions in mind, it becomes easier to find the ideal dedicated server. There is no “best” server, only the best server for your application. You should consider the amount of RAM, processing (CPU) power, and bandwidth that will be required to support your website or application, and begin configuring a server based on those details.
