Thread: Can Classipress handle 1 Million+ listings?

Can Classipress handle 1 Million+ listings?

I'm planning to buy Classipress in the next few days and our biggest competitor runs a classifieds website with almost 3 Million individual listings. I guess my question is - Can Classipress handle millions of listings?

Also has anyone reached millions of listings or even just hundreds of thousands? I'd be interested to know how well Classipress handles it.

So far I'm assuming it can so long as it is given good server space and bandwidth but I just want to make sure.

Would really appreciate any responses or personal experiences that any of you have had.

Yes, as wordpress theme, it can definitely scale up and of which you are right given a good server specs. Here's a modified Classipress theme with more than a hundred thousand ads http://forums.appthemes.com/tuffclas...ssfully-16584/.

Thank you for the answer. Glad to hear that it can handle it. Would you happen to have any recommendations as to what server specs to have in order to handle that much? I was thinking of WPEngine as a possible host considering their good reviews and scalability. How much server space would 1 million listings take, assuming they all have photos and text? Their business one has 100 GB.
