Shared web hosting - Disadvantages

A negative side of the shared hosting platform is that the web servers have some software installed on them and you cannot activate new software platforms. Certain websites, mainly online stores, require applications to be activated on the web hosting server for them to run, and with a shared web hosting solution, you can activate solely software platforms that do not demand complete server root access.

Virtual Private Web Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For web pages that request root-level access, or if your web page has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of daily visits, what you need is a VPS hosting or a dedicated server. A virtual server is a software simulation of a dedicated web hosting server and it performs in absolutely the same manner.

Both environments typically include full root-level access and can be rebooted via a software tool by the customer, independently from the hosting provider. Akin to the shared web hosting plans, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web hosting accounts sport diverse specs depending on what the hosting company offers. A virtual server package includes guaranteed data storage space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can at times be increased for short periods of time provided that there are unused resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware equipment it is utilizing, and it can be configured by altering or appending components. A virtual private web hosting server is simpler to run as it comprises a virtualization platform, which can be utilized to restart it, to install applications, check statistics, and so on. The management of a dedicated server is more complicated, so such a package would rather be utilized by tech-savvy clients.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Nonetheless, given web hosting corporations provide managed dedicated hosting solutions where they complete web server administration procedures on behalf of the client. This can be included in the plan or an additional service.
