Posted by Neha in A Virtual Private Server is based on the technology of virtualization and is created by dividing a physical server via a virtual partition. Each partition allows each Virtual Server to act as an independent entity and hence as your personal or private server.
Since a Virtual Server shares one physical server with the other VPS accounts, therefore it is very cheap when compared to a Dedicated Server Hosting. Shared Hosting plan is also very cheap but it will not give you all the features that a Virtual Server would give you.
Virtual server is of two types – Windows VPS and Linux VPS. Windows VPS is widely used by people since it is very easy to use and is based on GUI (Graphical User Interface). Windows VPS is also known as Windows Virtual Server and is a very easy and an affordable way to begin a website.
If someone wants to have only one website then in that case Shared Hosting would suffice. But it will not give you the possibility of expanding in future. Suppose in future you wish to have more than one website under different domain names then Shared Hosting is not advisable. A Windows Virtual Server or a Windows VPS would be a better idea for such things. VPS Hosting is the best decision for hosting multiple websites on your server. Here you have an option to select between Windows VPS and Linux VPS. Both will give you the same advantage.
The main drawback of Shared Hosting as compared to VPS Hosting is that you will have to spend your money on buying additional domain names as well as additional Shared Hosting for each domain separately. But in case of VPS Hosting or Windows VPS all you have to do is just buy a Virtual Server and then customize it the way you want to. You can add or delete domain names as and when you desire as per your needs.
You can also handle your domain names by using one single cPanel which is a great feature available in a VPS Hosting. If you host multiple domain names on your Windows VPS or Windows Virtual Server using VPS Hosting then it will give you a larger visibility on the web.
By using this type of hosting you will be able to improve you reputation on the web and will be able to display your viewpoint to large number of people in various ways. You can create lots of things on your Virtual Server, using VPS Hosting, such as an internet directory, a news content website or an e-commerce shop. You can also set up a pay per click earnings web page. You can create your own blog using Fantastico software through which you can use multiple websites and add your own content. This content can be forums, video galleries, support centers etc.
As far as cost is concerned the whole set up would cost you as much as if you had taken a Shared Hosting plan for each domain or website.
Once you have registered the required domain names with your VPS Hosting provider and they have become active, you can now manage them very easily by using the control panel of your Windows VPS or Linux VPS. You will also be able to arrange FTP accounts, e-mail accounts, and databases per domain.
You will be able to find lots of cheap plans (Cheap VPS) on the internet. All you have to do is do some research on the web and select the right VPS Hosting provider and also the plan that would suit you the most. The cost of a cheap VPS or a Windows VPS is a little more than a Shared Hosting account but the advantages are huge. You just have to select the right Windows VPS Hosting provider so that you are able to get the maximum out of your cheap VPS.
