Web Hosting
Monday, September 5, 2011

The web hosting industry is extremely important for the continuity and functionality of the internet, as every website online requires access to a web server at all times. Without a web hosting plan, your website would cease to exist, and without the right type of web hosting, it will not perform optimally. Thus, it is very important to make sure you are choosing the right kind of hosting for your online endeavors.

Virtual private server (VPS) hosting is akin to an advanced form of shared web hosting, as you are sharing a web server with other people. However, with VPS, you have access to more server resources because the entire server is split evenly at all times. In other words, when your site runs out of bandwidth, it can immediately draw bandwidth from another part of the server as long as it is available. The hosting concept is often referred to as the cloud concept, and when it is used in several servers at once, it is called cloud VPS hosting.

Most corporations or greatly successful online business owners use dedicated web hosting because it is extremely powerful. With dedicated hosting, you are basically renting your own web server that is stored and maintained at a professional data center. As the owner of a dedicated server plan, you have complete control over the server because you can install any type of software you’d like, including various control panels and content management system. Most dedicated hosting plans cost around $100-$400 per month, depending upon the server type.
