Are you looking for a dedicated hosting? But money is problem. I will tell you the best substitute for it. It is virtual dedicated hosting. I will tell you much about it. Like other hosting virtual dedicated hosting or VDS is a server that provides you the same facility as any dedicated server can provide with one fourth of its cost.
But like other hosting it also has merits and demerits, which I will explain to you.
VDS is also called a physical server which can be slatted into a number of virtual machines performing independently like a single dedicated server.
Advantages
• The main advantage is of money which every customer seeks for. The price is near about one fourth than that of a dedicated server. VDS also provide the same advantage. If you compare it with shared web hosting it is a bit expensive but provides simply the best balance of economy and control.
• In this server, services such as memory and space are shared but each server performs in an independent manner
• Another advantage is that every owner can have full control over the directory level and with this control the person can perform on many things like-
1. They can rule over own file directories.
2. They can assign the domain name without asking the web host.
3. They can create a new e-mail account.
4. They can change their passwords.
5. They can set permission.
6. They can upload any software or delete it.
• VDS gives power of a web host to its customers.
• VDS also is very secured server than that of a secured server. If a person any how finds the root directories in shared server, can damage all the sites on that server where as in VDS this is not possible at all. In VDS the hacker any how got one site he can not move to another one because they are totally invisible.
• Another facility is that every site owner will get equal distribution of storage, memory, downtime and bandwidth.
There are few disadvantages too:
• If you are a beginner and you do not know what you have to do or you are doing, can be risky for you if full control is in your hand, using server like VDS.
• If you do not know about the technical skills to perform over the server, you can by mistake delete all the files or allow any virus to come. So this may be bad if you are using VDS.
Over All
If you are going to host your site on VDS, always know how all the resources or services are distributed, what options are given to you for operating system, also uploading or deleting any software?
However if you are looking towards a dedicated hosting, I will suggest you to choose VDS or virtual dedicated hosting. That will provide you same facilities with a small monthly rent.
