    Hi people!
    A have some questions about my favorite CMS MODx.
    Before, I have made small corporate sites. Now I want create a huge web catalog with many pages.
    How many pages will be ok for MODx and it will not down?
    How many hosts in a day it will be ok for it?

    Waiting for answers.
    Thanks.

      Hi,
      That’s certainly a good question, but very difficult to answer, especially with few details about what you will need.

      I will say this: anecdotally, I have heard of MODx sites with tens of thousands of pages. So its capacity can be very large.

      And of course, if you will have a lot of traffic on your site, you will also need very strong hosting. I’m always amazed that people want to put huge sites on really bad hosting.

      Good luck, Dave

          Hi,
          Dedicated server, there you go! Impressive - someone who has a huge site, and doesn’t want to host on Godummy! wink

          There are a lot of questions like this that have been asked before. I just found that I over-stated the case.... apparently the Evo limit is around 5000. At that point, the cache and tree begin to bog down. Revo apparently does not, so this would probably be a good time to consider it!

          Here are a couple of threads to read:
