What is Dedicated Server Hosting?

Dedicated server hosting is a type of hosting that is superior to traditional web hosting because, as a client, you are not sharing the server that you upload content to, with others. This is, as opposed to shared hosting, wherein a server is shared with multiple clients - giving less control (and potentially less stability) to you. 

There are a variety of main differences, advantages and disadvantages between traditional shared hosting and dedicated hosting. Which one will suit the needs of you and/or your business?

Almost all clients could greatly benefit from dedicated hosting, including website administrators, gaming communities, social networking admin, and in particular any website owner whose sites use content that needs special software to ensure efficiency. 
 

What are the Benefits and Disadvantages of Dedicated Server Hosting?


Dedicated hosting has a wealth of benefits versus shared hosting. For one, it gives you more flexibility regarding the particular server you select. You get custom options like operating system, hardware, installed software, control panel, and so on. 

As a result of this ability to customize your host server, you as a client will experience a faster and smoother operation overall. For website administrators, that also means that the visitor experience will be enriched and more tailored to what you intended it to be.

The main disadvantage of dedicated hosting is that it does cost a bit more. Its benefits outweigh this and the overall value of having that dedicated server makes it well worth the additional charge for many websites, though.
