Is It Time For You To Upgrade Your Web Hosting?

Websites are built to draw visitors, especially for business websites. A successful website with proper search engine optimization strategy will grow well sooner or later, until a point where thousands of visitors might log in everyday. At this point, webmaster will need to upgrade their web hosting to a better one if they are using a shared hosting previously. Obviously, dedicated server is the best choice any webmaster can opt for, but it also costs a lot.

Fortunately, we have another option which offers an equal performance as well as a same stability of a dedicated server at a lower price. This alternative hosting is called a Virtual Private Server (VPS). They are in fact accounts that are being isolated from a great server into several small ones. Each VPS runs on their own independent Operating System (OS), thus using their own web and mail server which also means no sharing with other clients from the hosting company.

In a VPS hosting you can gain access into all configuration files, install and run your own custom software whenever needed just like a dedicated server. Besides that, you can also restore, reboot or make a back up all by your VPS account. When a website has a high level of traffic flowing in, it can still be able to run smoothly without much problems such as slow loading pages or downtime. If you own a really busy website, a network of websites or a video hosting site that may take up a lot of disk space and bandwidth, look for VPS services that can provide you with high bandwidth allowances of up to hundreds of gigabytes.

On top of that, VPS hosting can ensure a much better security than any regular shared hosting. In addition, the odds of damaging your site or being hacked are reduced, since all VPS account is being isolated from the each other. It is a service best used for websites that already outgrown shared server but do not quite requires a dedicated server. Ultimately, this server is about two third cheaper, yet at the same time offering you almost all of its benefits and advantages of a dedicated server.
