I wasn't sure about posting this here or in webmastering, but that forum seemed more on programming and on web server maintaining.
Basically, I have a site that has grown large and I'm not a programmer myself. I've upgraded my dedicated server as much as the host will allow.
Does anybody know of some 3rd party service that would allow you to have 2 or more servers setup that have the exact same content on them and this "service" makes it so that as visitors come to the site it alternates which server they're taken to so that the bandwidth, processing, etc. is split between 2+ servers? I thought something like this existed as a service and somehow did it through DNS, but I wasn't sure.
I don't want to switch hosts, so I'm hoping it's not host dependent, but I need to find something as we grow.
Thanks for any help people can toss out to me.
