hello,
I have better than 30 years of programming experience, the last 13 of which have been primarily php and MySQL related. There are a number of things that can be done, from, optimizing your MySQL database to optimizing your server settings to checking out your code and ensuring that it is 100% safe and ready to go
If your server is a dedicated or vps server, it would be best to start with the server settings themselves, ensure that your code is good, and then move to the database itself.
If you take a look at my profile, you'll see 100% completion, 100% 5 star rating, and dedication to task. This is just how I work. You'll also see a link to my website, where over 10 years of testimonials from clients reside. Rest assured, I will not over bid, I will not delay work, I will not quit until the task is completed.
I look forward to hearing from you and working with you on this project
Tom Whiting
