How do your visitor limits work?
As we are hosting websites on the WP Engine infrastructure we have to review visitor numbers regularly to ensure that we do not incur additional overage charges as outlined by WP Engine here: https://wpengine.co.uk/overage-pricing/
As part of the essentials plan we include a 50,000 visitors per month limit by default and 80% of our customer sites are below this limit. Only 20% of the sites we host require a higher usage banding.WP Engine states that they will apply $2 per additional 1000 visitors over the allowed and agreed usage limit. WP Engine has its own mechanism for counting visitors and it might differ from e.g. Google Analytics, although Google Analytics should give you some idea about how many visits your site gets every month.
After the first month of hosting your site we will have a better understanding of your website visitor numbers as counted by WP Engine and we might have to adjust your included visitor numbers accordingly. We will contact you as soon as we notice that your site might not fall within the purchased visitor banding.
Our visitor bandings and pricing are as follows:
Number of Visitors Additional Price Per Month 0 to 50k visitors Included in AWESEM Essentials 50k to 75k £37.50 75k to 100k £50 100k to 150k £75 150k to 200k £100 200k to 250k £125 250k to 500k £250 500k to 1million £500 1millon+ Please contact us Finally, using a CDN or website firewall are ways to reduce server traffic and this can help avoid or reduce any overage charges.
