VPS Hosting

VPS is an abbreviation for “virtual private server”. A VPS works by dividing a physical server into separate virtual machines. Each of these virtual machines, or virtual private servers, operate completely independently from one another. In other words, each VPS has its own operating system as well as allocation of resources like RAM, CPU and disk space. This provides you with an environment that closely mimics that of a Dedicated Server, without the costs associated with it.

There are many advantages to choosing VPS Hosting over competing solutions. These advantanges include:

• Improved Performance & Isolation– You don’t share resources with other users meaning your audience will enjoy your enhanced website performance in a VPS environment.
• More Control & Customization– Root access allows you to configure server settings to fully match your hosting needs.
• Cost Effectiveness– You get to experience most of the benefits of a Dedicated Server, without the cost.
• Highly Scalable– As your site becomes more popular, you can also easily increase your VPS’ resources to keep up with growth.
• Ability To Host Resource Intensive Software– Some software is not compatible in a Shared Hosting environment as it needs more resources to run properly. A VPS offers those additional resources.

Shared Hosting is likely your starting point when launching a new site because it is the most affordable hosting option. With Shared Hosting, you are hosted on a server where you share the physical resources, like CPU, memory/RAM and disk space, with other users. The primary drawback of Shared Hosting is that it can be relatively inflexible for more advanced users looking for a fully customized server configuration. Also, you can outgrow a shared hosting account as your site becomes more popular and you need a service that can handle the increased traffic. This is when you should consider VPS Hosting.

VPS Hosting is the perfect solution for when you need more power and flexibility than a Shared Hosting account, but are still looking for anaffordablehosting solution. Unlike Shared Hosting, you do not share disk space, RAM or CPU with other users. You can almost look at a VPS like having your own “mini” Dedicated Server. This is what makes a VPS a much more powerful hosting solution.
