Creating a website is an easy task especially with all the resources and tools that are free to use online. However, websites need to be hosted to reach the internet. You have two options for hosting. One is shared server hosting and the other is dedicated server hosting. When it comes to dedicated server hosting, it only means leasing an entire web server from a hosting service provider. It is all yours meaning you do not have to share it with anyone else. On a shared server, you share the resources of the server with a number of clients. There are other options too like opting for a colocation provider if you already have existing equipment. Server hosting costs vary depending on which to choose. Shared servers are the cheapest while dedicated servers are the more expensive solution. However, choosing a dedicated server truly has its benefits and is actually an affordable solution compared to purchasing your own servers. Plus, you simply get the best service that your money will buy.
A shared server may be a good solution for small companies and personal sites. In this case, there is really no reason for the owner to get an exclusive server unless the site expands. However, when your small business starts expanding, the bandwidth and disk space may suddenly become too small for your computing needs. You can deal with this in two ways. One is to stick with shared hosting while purchasing additional disk space and the other is considering dedicated server hosting. The first option will not be a good solution if your business truly takes off because before you know it, you will be encountering the same problem all over again.
Dedicated servers cater only to your site. You have all the disk space and bandwidth on the server all to yourself and you will never have to worry about adding disk space ever again. There will be absolutely no need for you to share the server with other website unlike on a shared server. You will have the option of building your website as large and as sophisticated as you want.
A dedicated server is also more secure over a shared server because you will have full control over the security of your server and your site. On a shared server, you will not have this kind of control simply because you share it with other people. Data on a shared server is almost like a computer being used at home by other people so it will never be as secure as you would like it to be.
Dedicated servers can be managed or unmanaged. When you opt for an unmanaged server, this means it is up to you to do the managing. A managed server on the other hand comes with services that will include technical support, firewall services, and security audits. A list of these services can be quite extensive.
On a managed server you will have the time to deal with more important matters knowing that someone is tending to your computing needs. You have the time to focus on the business end of things or looking over communications with your customers or clients. Managing a server is not only challenging but also time-consuming. Having the luxury of time alone is already a huge benefit in itself.
Lastly, you will have technicians for twenty-four seven support. As you own the entire server, any problem that arises is dealt with priority and is resolved in a matter of seconds or minutes. To put it simply, you do not experience this on a shared server. You get premium service on a dedicated server because of what you pay for. You may now sleep soundly at night knowing that you have professionals on top of things.
There are many options in terms of servers for your internet computing needs. There is shared hosting or dedicated server hosting or a colocation provider just to name a few. The type of server that you get really depends on personal choice, website needs and affordability of server hosting costs. However, if you can afford it, dedicated server hosting is the best choice.
