It’s not enough to build your company website and host it, a critical point that most people miss is testing how the site performs under stress, this should give you a fair idea of what your hosting environment is capable of as well as how solid the infrastructure is and if it can cope with massive loads. We regularly run tests on random sites on our servers where we test 10 000 active users over a one minute period, so effectively around 170 people a second.
We use loader.io for all independent testing, and you can view the full results online
