: Is it Better to Use a Separate VPS for Each Website or Have One, Stronger VPS? In what situations should one purchase multiple VPSes to host multiple websites? For instance, renting three VPSes
In what situations should one purchase multiple VPSes to host multiple websites? For instance, renting three VPSes with 1GB RAM 3 times vs renting one VPS with 3GB RAM?
The problem I am currently having with multiple VPSes is that I have to setup a lot of configurations on each, and as they generally all need email (PostFix), LAMP and the same Apache configurations, I'm finding it very frustrating to use.
Therefore the top priority is going to be performance and ease of maintainance.
Which path shall I take? I appreciate all opinions with points backed up.

Honestly, it depends on the load the VPS's will be under. If you run high-traffic sites with memory-hogging applications (hello, un-optimized WordPress in an un-optimized environment...how YOU doin'?), keeping each VPS separate is probably the better idea so that if one site gets a traffic spike or other load-causing event and causes a server slowdown your other sites are still up and running.
But if these are small sites with not a ton of traffic and you know how to tune both application and server resources properly, then it should be far more time and cost-effective to get one beefy server instead of dealing with a ton of identical VPS's.
