another newbie

Hi, I have researched to the maximum and am trying to make a decision.
In my attempts to conclude I am having some difficulty in making a choice.

I am transferring 2 sites. No big deal. Both sites have forums and 2 blogs each, one site is still very new with little traffic the other uses more. I want to consolidate to one plan of some type that would give each site full access and control over itself. They are currently hosted in individual plans. I also intend to put stores on them eventually. I have read about the 50,000 file limit and although not there yet That could happen. I am very new to this still and dont want to make another mistake. I also have kids and would be thinking of giving them space to put up a site or 2. What would work best for this scenario. I really dont want to be down all the time like I am now.

Thnks

I have checked into this, it seems that you have a few Wordpress installations in which you are hitting our process limit of 25. Once you hit this limit it will give you an internal server error because of other processes not dying out. If this happens you can go into chat and we can kill the zombie processes. Just tell that chat technician that you need your processes cleared. We do apologize for this but, on a shared/reseller server this is the limit to give everyone an equal playing field CPU/Connections wise

Sorry but could you explain the 25 process limit to me. I know it probably is as self explanatory as I think it is but tell me anyway. If 25 people are active on a forum at a time would that constitute 25 processes??
Forgive me if that ^^ is really a stupid question.

No, a forum generally only opens connections to the database when needed and those connections are usually pretty short, just a fraction of a second, so you can have many more than 25 users online at once and not have problems.

Thank you, thats what I was assuming. Also do you know what the max upload size is. Where I am at now it is 80k which is not close to what my base is at 12.5m. So for me to restore is a problem. Had to pay to have that done. thanks
