How do you feel about using a single dedicated server (hosted of course) or VPS for one WordPress blog?

Do you think this would increase the speed and performance of the blog versus using a server to host several different websites/blogs/forums as most people do?

Have any of you done this and if so, how was it? Did you notice anything different about it?
 
I think a single dedicated server for a blog is too much. Unless the amount of traffic is really demanding it.
I would put it on a VPS over a shared hosting to improve speed.

I have a bunch of my sites on a single VPS, they all work fine (I barely use 3% of it's capacity). A VPS for a single blog would be an overkill as well
if the blog is not really-really busy.

I'm the same way. A bunch of sites on one VPS and it's worked well for me for the past 15+ years.

I do have a VPS MySQL server as well.

I'd say that's pretty much overkill. You don't need a dedicated server for a Wordpress blog. It can run fine on a shared hosting provider, or a reseller server. A dedicated server is perfect when you have a ton of traffic, or just want to have one. But, I wouldn't use a dedicated server just for one website.

I wonder about what it would be like to run just one website, one WordPress blog.

But that's not me LOL or you. Or any of us on here.

Lol, same here. I wonder how they're coping running SearchEngineJournal or SearchEngineLand. They're both powered by wordpress blogs, but now managed/owned by multiple people.
