Why Use VPS Hosting?

VPS hosting gives you the stability and privacy that is lacking in shared hosting. It works as an immediate solution for websites that have outgrown the shared hosting.

A physical server is split into several smaller virtual servers using the virtualization software. Each VPS runs its own operating system. The sharing of server continues in VPS like in shared hosting but each VPS account is assigned independent scalable resources.

The number of websites in a VPS is lesser than in shared hosting. That is one reason why VPS is slightly higher in cost. VPS gives features that match the dedicated server without the high price tag. Because of its sharing nature, VPS is lower in cost than the dedicated server.

There are Several Benefits of using the VPS:

Reliable: Even if a neighbor pulls more resources, it will not disturb the other businesses since they have specific resources dedicated to their account.

Secure: Each VPS is housed separately in individual containers. If one account is hacked or attacked with a virus, it will not carry on to the other websites in the server.

Privacy: Each Virtual Private Server is assigned a dedicated IP which assures greater privacy and isolation. In shared hosting, if one account is banned it affects the entire server accounts as they all share one IP address.

Scalable: Unlike in shared hosting, VPS allows a client to pull more resources to manage traffic spikes.

Control: VPS allows the users to configure and customize the server in any manner that suits their business. It gives root access like in dedicated server.
