Once a web hosting plan has been availed, a site’s files get stored on the web server of the service provider. These files get processed on the server and get retrieved from there by the browsers of site visitors, which makes the site accessible to those site visitors.

7. Service of Shared Hosting • Shared Hosting is a web hosting service that is meant for those, who have either less budget for availing the service of web hosting or whose sites do not have the need for dedicated server resources for their optimal functioning nor the need for enhanced site security and speed. • In Shared Hosting, a single physical web server is used to store and process the files of multiple sites. This sharing of server resources among multiple sites, limits the availability of server resources to the individual sites, impacting their speed and performance. Moreover, the shared server environment does give rise to security issues.

8. Advantages and Disadvantages of Shared Hosting • Shared Hosting, as a web hosting solution, has its share of advantages and disadvantages due to the sharing of server space and server resources among multiple sites. These advantages and disadvantages are being mentioned below, in no particular order. • Advantage of using Shared Hosting – Shared Hosting turns out to be the most economical web hosting solution, owing to the sharing of a single server by many websites. • Disadvantages of using Shared Hosting – Limited availability of server resources, issues with the hosted sites’ speed, security and performance are commonplace in Shared Hosting. Moreover, it is not possible for any particular customer to customize the server. This is because multiple sites are hosted on a single web server.

9. Service of Dedicated Hosting • Dedicated Hosting is an ideal web hosting solution for those sites that require dedicated server resources for their effective functioning, as well as for sites that need enhanced site speed, security and performance. • In Dedicated Hosting, a single physical web server is used to store and process the files of a single site. By hosting a single site on a single web server, this type of hosting service does away with sharing of server resources among multiple sites. Thus, Dedicated Hosting is able to offer dedicated server resources to the hosted site. The availability of the entire resources of the web server leads to the hosted site utilizing this exclusivity to its full advantage and delivering top-notch performance, along with enhanced site speed and augmented security.

Those with less budget for availing web hosting might find this to be an issue for them.

12. Service of VPS Hosting • Virtual Private Servers (VPS) are used in this type of web hosting service. Hence, it is known as VPS Hosting. VPS Hosting provides dedicated server resources to the hosted sites and is able to create the environment of a dedicated server on a physical web server that is being shared by multiple sites. This makes it ideal for sites with the requirement of dedicated server resources and sites that are looking for augmented site speed, security and performance. • The use of Virtualization Technology makes it possible to virtually segment a single physical server into multiple servers that are configured to install their own OS and software and function as independent web servers. These multiple servers are private and remain isolated from each other and the files hosted on them remain separated from other files as well. The availability of this virtual and private server environment on a shared server, provides dedicated server resources to each of the hosted sites. This boosts performance and site speed of the hosted sites and enhances their security.

13. Advantages and Disadvantages of VPS Hosting The dedicated server environment of a Virtual Private Server (VPS) is able to offer many benefits. Once again, there is hardly any disadvantage of availing this type of web hosting solution. • Advantages of using VPS Hosting – The main benefits of hosting a site on a VPS are the flexibility to customize the server at will, the availability of unique IP address and dedicated server resources, enhanced site speed and performance, along with heightened security. Moreover, it provides dedicated server resources at prices which are usually less than that for availing Dedicated Hosting. • Disadvantage of using VPS Hosting – There isn’t any disadvantage of using VPS Hosting, apart from the fact that it is not the most economical web hosting solution, despite being less expensive to avail than Dedicated Hosting.

14. Conclusion: Website owners have various web hosting services available for hosting their websites.
