Introduction
With the latest discoveries in the world of internet, people started to use the virtual hosting server as a reliable hosting solution, especially in the case of medium webpages with an average number of visitors. While a private server is definitely a better option, this method of hosting a site is expensive, so it is only recommended in case of big pages with tens of thousands of visitors every day. In fact, the virtual hosting server is a compromise between a private server and a shared hosting solution. Let’s see the advantages and disadvantages of hosting your page using this method for your website.
History
If you think about starting a webpage, maybe the solution of shared hosting is the best one for you. However, if you plan to have a successful online business, such as a virtual store, or a page hosting video files, it is better to consider virtual hosting server from the start. In any case, at the beginning, you will have only a few visitors a day, so the shared hosting solution is the cheapest and it is also simple. This kind of hosting will give you the opportunity to develop the basics of your service, and to understand what web mastering is about. As soon as your page grows, or if you want to send daily and weekly updates to your visitors, you will need to switch to a virtual hosting server solution.
Features
A virtual hosting server solution is a little more expensive than shared hosting, but it has its advantages. It will be as if you have your own server, with RAM memory, disk space and bandwidth, with the difference that other virtual servers are hosted on the same physic server. In the case of shared hosting, a single processor serves all the pages that are currently hosted on a server, and a hacking attack on one of those pages will surely affect the rest of the pages also. In the case of virtual hosting server, every server has its own resources and security protocols, so an attack of this kind will only affect the respective page. From this point of view, a VPS is surely more reliable than the simple shared hosting solution.
Tips and comments
The virtual hosting server is recommended in case you decide to send weekly updates and newsletters to your subscribers. It is also recommended for pages hosting video files, as those files usually occupy a large portion on the hard disk. If you want to determine the exact moment when the switch from shared hosting to the virtual hosting server must be made, maybe you should talk with the hosting company, as they have the possibility to determine the quantity of resources needed for your page. In any case, considering that the virtual hosting server is more expensive than shared hosting, and in some cases, it is not justified to use virtual hosting server because of the costs, you should start a website with simple shared hosting, and to switch to this solution only after a few months.
