This presentation is for the SF WordPress Meetup. It's based on a blog post I wrote on setting up a high-performance WordPress server.
It will cover the most important topics (in my opinion) of setting up your WordPress host:
- Setting up a VPS
- Navigating Linux
- PHP-FPM
- nginx
- MySQL
- Sending email from a server
- Installing WordPress
- Configuring WordPress Multisite
- Caching with Batcache
- Measuring your host's performance
I'm posting it on Github because I've seen it work well for other presetnations, and because it seems like a fun and easy way to make it available.
