(Page 1 of 5)
Shared, virtual private server, dedicated, and co-located–which flavor of Web

It might be
easier to count the number of flavors one can find in ice creams than to?count
the different web hosting flavors. That may be a bit of an?exaggeration,?but
going by the current trend it does not seem far from reality.
Just for

Hosting, Virtual Private Server(VPS) Hosting, Managed Hosting, Budget Hosting,
Reseller Hosting, Custom Hosting” and so on is what we see upon doing a simple
search for hosting on the Web. Though the?search shows a number of results
referring to different flavors of web hosting, in essence they all are
variations of four main flavors:?the famous?four (Shared, VPS, Dedicated, and
Co-located).
This article
explains the concept behind the famous four as well as the benefits of selecting
one over another.

see a difference in access speeds and server configurations, but we also see a
