Shared Hosting
|
Virtual Private Server
|
Dedicated Hosting
|
Reseller Hosting
|
| Details |
Shared hosting means that there are many different websites all residing on one server. They share the servers resources. |
VPS servers are made by partitioning a dedicated server. Each partition can run as its own individual server. |
Dedicated hosting gives you the use of a whole server. It is not shared by anyone. |
Reseller hosting allows the administrator to partition his resources to allow clients to have their own hosting account. |
| Advantages |
-Lower Cost
-Easy to set up |
- More customization available
- Mid range price |
- Usually the fastest servers
- Complete control over all aspects of the server |
- Very easy for you to partition accounts for sale |
| Disadvantages |
- Not much flexibility, can be slower than other hosting options |
- A little more expensive than shared hosting |
- Higher costs
- More work to maintain |
- Higher cost
- Might not be as fast as a dedicated server
- More maintenance needed |
| This type of Hosting is for you if… |
This plan is great for people running smaller websites and that don’t need total control of everything. |
This plan is great for people who want to have a dedicated hosting plan, but don’t want to spend a lot of money |
This plan is great for people who run large and popular websites. People who have a lot of technical know-how usually use dedicated web hosting. |
This plan is great if you want to resell hosting to other people. It is also great if you want to run a large number of websites by yourself. |
