Signature plans are the right fit for most WordPress sites: predictable, day-to-day traffic with straightforward resource needs. High-traffic, high-concurrency, or business-critical sites require more dedicated resources, scalability, and hands-on optimization. Here’s how to tell the difference, whether you’re comparing plans up front or one site in your portfolio has grown past what Signature was built for.

## Signature vs. Premium at a Glance

Yes. Most customers mix and match: Premium for the site that needs it, Signature for the rest of your portfolio. It’s uncommon for an entire account to move from Signature to Premium. More often, it’s a single flagship or high-traffic site within a larger Signature bundle that’s better served by Premium, while the rest of the portfolio stays on Signature.

## What Signature Plans Are Built For

Signature plans are designed for predictable, day-to-day traffic with straightforward resource needs. Each Signature site includes 5 dedicated PHP workers, with short-burst auto-scaling based on pool availability, so a site can absorb the occasional traffic spike without issue.

Signature is sold in bundles, from 1 site up to 100+ sites, which makes it the right fit for most individual sites, portfolios, and agency accounts.

## What Premium Plans Are Built For

Premium plans are designed for a single site with sustained high traffic, high-concurrency workloads, or performance requirements tied directly to revenue and business continuity. Each Premium site starts with 10 dedicated PHP workers and scales vertically with burst capacity to 110+ cores, giving it much more headroom under sustained load than a Signature site.

Premium also includes Jetpack Complete ($599/year value) rather than Jetpack Security, along with senior technical expertise for architecture review, resource planning, migration strategy, and a tailored optimization plan.

## Signs It’s Time to Talk About Premium

- **Traffic keeps climbing.** A single site sustaining high traffic (often 100K+ monthly visits) is outgrowing what a Signature plan is built for.
- **Spikes are becoming the norm.** If high-traffic periods, campaigns, transactions, or concurrent activity are putting regular pressure on performance, Premium provides additional dedicated resources and deeper scaling for demanding workloads.
- **Performance is business-critical.** The site drives meaningful revenue, transactions, leads, or customer activity, and slowdowns or downtime would have a material business impact.

None of these signs alone is an automatic rule. They’re meant to be considered together against how the site is actually used.
