RAM (Random Access Memory) refers to the amount of memory allocated to your website per hosting plan. RAM is used by the server to temporarily store data and run processes that are essential for your website's performance.
Each web hosting plan is allocated a specific amount of RAM (MB or GB) based on the hosting plan you have chosen. The amount of RAM you need will depend on the size and complexity of your website, as well as the amount of traffic it receives.
It's important to monitor your RAM usage and ensure that you have enough resources allocated to your website to ensure optimal performance. If your website exceeds its allotted RAM resources, it may slow down or even become unresponsive, which can result in a poor user experience for your visitors.
To avoid this, you can optimize your website by minimizing the use of resource-intensive scripts, reducing the number of plugins or extensions, and caching content to reduce the load on the server's memory. If your website continues to exceed its allotted RAM resources, you may need to upgrade your hosting plan to one with more RAM.
