Being able to choose the right hosting package, as everything else, should be based on a users need. Insufficient server resources for a website that is resource intensive can mean server stalling and website crashing. And excessive resources for a website that doesn’t require too much server resources could mean under-utilization of the server and unnecessary money spent.
In this article I will be discussing VPS Hosting, and I have listed two questions that should be able to capture your need for a VPS Package.
Question 1: Are you operating or starting up a business where client interaction with your website is important? For instance, a game based site, forum, or popular business. Initially you might see modest growth, but you’re expecting rapid expansion and user interaction via the website? If that’s the case, I assume you would require your website to be agile, scalable and flexible to support the growth?
Question 2: Are you looking at owning your very own “Virtual Machine” that is as good as a private dedicated server, but at a much more affordable price? This could be to meet your App or Software Development needs.
If you’ve answered yes to either of the above questions then VPS is the perfect hosting option for you. A Virtual Private Server allows you root access and provides you with the private resources similar to a Dedicated Server. This allows you to customize your software application and a host of other aspects at a fraction of the cost you would pay for a complete Dedicated Server.
Advantages of Virtual Private Servers
- Server administration has full root access to the virtual machine
- Any VPS account is isolated and separated from other accounts on the same server
- Hardware or any replacements or physical upgrades are taken care of by the web hosting provider as he is responsible for the management of the underlying physical server
- Customers coming to your site will experience faster load times so you will eliminate visitors from becoming impatient and leaving.
- With VPS hosting, you have your own server and have access to dedicated resources which automatically translates to having access to more RAM, a faster CPU speed, and more disk space for storage.
- From a user point of view, VPS is easy to scale up and down and used on a per demand basis
- A VPS is cheaper compared to a physical server with similar amount of resources

Your VPS is now completely deployed and ready to use.
A VPS server is an ideal choice when looking to upgrade from a shared hosting package. However, for websites with a larger quantity of traffic, virtual private hosting may not be the best solution since their need for resources are high, which would require an entire server, or multiple servers. For any other more than moderate requirement or development purpose a VPS Hosting package is perfect.
