Think of it this way… Liken web hosting to renting a house or flat, you need a place to live right? Just like your website needs somewhere to live, web hosting provides space on web server for your website to live in. The larger your family becomes the bigger the home you need yes? In the same way, the more your website demands from the server the bigger and more powerful it needs to be, hence variations in cost and performance. Your website may live happily in a ‘Small Flat’, however large high traffic eCommerce sites may need a ‘Mansion’ to live in! It’s all relative to your business and how much website traffic you’re expecting. All of our hosting options are fully scaleable so you can start small and grow big!
This is generally the cheapest and most basic form of hosting, where websites share space with other websites on the same server. Each website will have access to limited resources from the server as defined by their hosting plan/agreement.
In layman’s terms, a server is a powerful computer that stores all of the data and files that make up your website. When someone types your domain name into their web browser, that powerful computer “serves up” your website to the viewers screen.
Now for the virtual aspect: VPS uses virtualisation technology to split that one powerful server we just talked about into multiple virtual servers. Think of it this way: it’s one piece of physical hardware that functions like several separate servers.
