    Can the WordPress.com Explorer plan reliably support a service-based website with an average of 10,000 daily visitors, or would you recommend upgrading to a higher-tier plan for better performance and scalability?

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    Hi there,

    At WordPress.com, all of our plans, including the Explorer plan, are built on the same robust infrastructure. This means they’re well-equipped to handle heavy traffic, like the 10,000 daily visitors you mentioned, without any hiccups. So, rest assured, your website can rely on the Explorer plan to support your visitor volume.

    The main reason you might consider upgrading to a higher-tier plan isn’t about handling more traffic—it’s about the additional features. Higher plans offer access to plugins, advanced SEO tools, and more sophisticated hosting capabilities that can help you expand and customize your site further. If you find yourself needing these advanced features, then an upgrade might be the way to go.

    Let me know if you have any other questions, and I’ll be happy to help.
