Dedicated servers are when your
web hosting provider lets you rent out an entire machine for
your web hosting needs. Usually mission critical operations
where the web site needs to be ultra-secure and stable are
hosted on dedicated servers. Hosting on a dedicated server
gives the consumer more options and more control than
traditional shared hosting, and offers much more storage -
it is literally the difference between owning an apartment
and an entire apartment complex. Dedicated servers used to
be very expensive but as all hosting prices have been
reducing the process of having an entire server is no longer
out of the question for low-end users, and can offer startup
businesses a unique opportunity to host massive amounts of
data (images, video files) and also host and resell portions
of a server themselves as a web hosting reseller. For more
information on reselling web hosting services, see our
reseller guide. |
