Mobile phone tracking

Paying software to locate a phone are in full swing, and quite expensive.We were curious to see what we can do, and if possible free of chargeBest combination nearly for free is :Plan 1 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.kidcontrol.gpstracker (an internet connection is needed on both sides, wifi or data), we recommend only leave wifi always enabled, but leaving data always is best of course to track at maximum... but will cost battery, and health injuries to the mobile phone holders... Plan 2 To avoid having Internet connected (unhealthy for adults-children like plan 1) since it is needed for getting back GPS location, you can get location instantly on request by SMS : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.tracking.trackbysms&hl=fr (For this one, only a phone plan with SMS included is needed) and some € for app... (For a few more €, possibility to automate at regular intervals) NB :For those claiming to be protecting from kidnapping, this is fake to the extent that is mobile phone has no battery, or was turned off, you can't get back anything neither from plan 1 or 2, the best you can get is from plan 1 with last locationregistered (mode if data was enabled) and if there was an internet connection turned on... Plan 2 with automation is pretty good also...

Only HA hosting with full replication of your site, added with a local private CDN can make a difference of several seconds in the US and Asia :https://www.yoorshop.hosting/announcements/854/High-availability-hosting-with-private-CDN-in-EU-USA-ASIA.html If your traffic does not exceed 25% internationally, this is almost useless, but you can testReminder : with cloudflare for custom SSL, it costs 200$/mo !!! deterrent... We recommend best and cheapest : https://www.keycdn.com/?a=31796 See also :https://www.keycdn.com/support/getting-started (There are many integration plugins at the bottom of this page) $ 49 / year, or 75 GB of traffic per month, which means a lot, see awstats of cpanel to evaluate your bandwidth consumption ... For our case, we have done a manual integration of the static resources. This leaves our SSL EV intact. (Cloudflare is not performing enough and does not allow free to leave the main SSL of the site) We use an alias with SSL let's encrypt from their platform :https://www.yoorshop.hosting/ (Which allows you to have interesting keywords within website as this is also supposed to play on SEO, this is the main reason why we use such CDN) Test the situation before and after:https://tools.pingdom.com/
