A virtual private server, or VPS, is one step above shared hosting. It is also one web server, but it’s divided into multiple virtual servers.
With VPS hosting, each website is hosted on an individual virtual server, although these virtual servers are all on one web server.
VPS emulates a dedicated server environment without the accompanying high cost.
VPS is ideal for websites that require extra server resources, privacy and more storage. This is the solution we recommend for our clients with midsize businesses.
Because of the virtual server environment, websites on a VPS platform enjoy better performance.
