Looking for a WordPress Wizard to rule out an issue with high resources utilization

Job ID: 37291709

Budget: $30 – $50 USD

I have a WordPress website with Woocommerce used, hosted in IONOS VPS (Virtual Private Server).

I’ve set up monitoring and it we seem to be hitting high loads on CPU and processes. Php_fpm is the identified process. For example, just looking this morning and cpu load is between 95-105%!

Last night I ran into a problem where I got that error database connection message again and I was unable to log into plesk (error 500). This is the first time it has happened since moving onto VPS. I had to restart the server which worked and cleared the cache – IONAS reported it will have been from maxing out resources. From what I can see PHP fpm perhaps needs optimising as its using a lot of processing resources.

I need a professional hand to rule out the problem and fix the issue completely. Thank you.

Website is built with Elementor Pro, and Woocommerce used for ecommerce functionality.

Budget: 50 USD.
