Shared and reseller hosting are almost always managed services, but VPS services are more akin to dedicated server services in that they are normally listed as unmanaged, with managed solutions as options.<\/p>\n<p>If your website is on a shared platform, then the IP address of your site will be shared with hundreds of other sites, and will share the resources of that server with all of the other sites.<\/p>\n<p>On reseller accounts, each account is separate from the other, typically with each having their own cPanel account (or other control panel). Resources are still shared, and the security of the server itself is hardened by the provider.<\/p>\n<p>With a VPS, you get to select from a number of options, most noticeably the number of vCores, RAM, diskspace and bandwidth. Thus, you can lease just the right mix of memory and processing power to match your exact hosting requirements for everything from e-commerce applications to stand alone WordPress sites.<\/p>\n<p>Unmanaged VPS services can go as low as $1 per month, but I wouldn\u2019t expect much from those types of plans. Of course, there are a number of free control panels available, but the majority of prospects either already have cPanel or are similar with it \u2013 and that panel doesn\u2019t come free. To top it off, cPanel recommends a minimum of 2GB of RAM to run properly.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Comparative_costs_of_virtual_private_servers\"><\/span>Comparative costs of virtual private servers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Some upper level VPS packages can easily cost more than a dedicated server, but when comparing specs, they often match up well and are essentially the better solution.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1487\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1487\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1487 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/VPS-Versus-Dedicated-300x180.jpg\" alt=\"VPS Versus Dedicated\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/VPS-Versus-Dedicated-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/VPS-Versus-Dedicated-512x307.jpg 512w, https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/VPS-Versus-Dedicated.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1487\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Balancing between VPS and Dedicated Servers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>What virtual private servers offer are a go-between the price of a shared or reseller account and the price of a dedicated server. Not only that, but they offer control and flexibility in the types of programs and applications that can be run on them.<\/p>\n<p>For example, virtual private servers can be used as e-mail, DNS, FTP or Web Servers. They can also be used for VPN end points, or shared or private proxies.<\/p>\n<p>Do you need a remote Linux desktop? A VPS can be used for that as well. A repository? Yes.<\/p>\n<p>When you see VPS packages listed as KVM SSD VPS Services, these are services where disk space and memory are allocated independently from others, minimizing the possibility that one user on that server could impact another.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1488\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1488\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1488 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/Older-spindle-hard-disk-drive-300x276.png\" alt=\"Older spindle hard disk drive\" width=\"300\" height=\"276\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/Older-spindle-hard-disk-drive-300x276.png 300w, https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/Older-spindle-hard-disk-drive-512x470.png 512w, https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/Older-spindle-hard-disk-drive.png 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1488\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fast SSD versus slow spindle hard disk drives<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>SSD is essentially an Acronym for solid state device. It\u2019s a special type of drive that doesn\u2019t use spinning spindles like older and slower hard disk drives. A huge advantage to using SSD drives is their boost in performance and speed. In today\u2019s age of broadband everything, speed and performance is huge.<\/p>\n<p>Typically, anything that you can put on a dedicated server, you\u2019ll be able to put on a virtual private server. When you need to update vCores, RAM or drive size, it\u2019s easy to scale up. With a dedicated server, it is basically what it is. You could maybe add RAM, but typically you\u2019d have to provision a completely different server to upgrade your specs.<\/p>\n<p>Afraid a VPS wouldn\u2019t be powerful enough to run large dynamic websites? No worry, as VPS services have evolved over the years to be able to handle all types of applications from moderate to exceptionally busy. They\u2019ve proven over and over again to provide extraordinary cost effective value.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prolimehost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2014\/08\/unnamed-e1408122780935.jpg\" alt=\"ProlimeHost RAID Server Solutions\" width=\"400\" height=\"80\" \/><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"BROUGHT_TO_YOU_BY_PROLIMEHOST\"><\/span>BROUGHT TO YOU BY PROLIMEHOST<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>We\u2019ve been in the web hosting industry for over a decade, helping hundreds of clients succeed in what they do best and that\u2019s running their business.
