Is VPS Hosting better than Shared Hosting?

Is VPS hosting is best and can it give me more profit as compare others. Most of all have one common question at the time of choosing a web hosting that which type is best for my website. And the answer is that if you have a business which offers more products and services, then you should go for VPS hosting even as a start-up.


Following are the main advantages of VPS Hosting:

Performance:
Let’s assume that any one account sends out a mass mailing of spam and violates the company’s terms of service, then this action will put load on server and impact the performance of all other accounts negatively. Many times if a country wants to ban a website then it bans IP of the server and so other websites are also automatically ban for that country from the same server.

And in the case of VPS Hosting it has the guaranteed resources. Any customer cannot access more resources than it have the permission I mean it allotted. Here if you have a bad VPS account neighbor then also it will not affect your account, they will impact only their account.

High Customizability:
Some applications require that certain ports and/or protocols should be opened or closed in the firewall and in shared hosting you cannot customize this setting for opening and closing any port or protocol because of security reasons. In the VPS hosting you can customize the firewall configuration because here a single physical server is divided into many virtual servers and hence you have your own copy of operating system here. We will see some more important features of VPS Hosting in next post, which are much better as compare shared hosting.
