  • CPU
  • 1 GB RAM
  • 20 GB Data Storage
  • 1 TB Bandwidth

A VPS is a virtual machine created on a physical web server, which enables clients to obtain their own server to accommodate web site content. It provides an excellent balance between price and performance, so it is often the favored option for high resource-swallowing web sites that cannot be hosted on a shared hosting server. As a number of customers have their own personal VPS accounts on the same physical web server, all system resources can be used, which minimizes the fee per individual. Each and every VPS comes with full server root access, which enables users to activate any software programs or script libraries that may be required for certain web apps to function.

Strengths of the VPS Hosting Solution

The positive aspect of running a VPS is that it is fully autonomous from the remaining VPS hosting accounts on the physical server. It can be restarted, updated, and can even have a different OS than those of the rest of the Virtual Private Server hosting accounts on that physical server. It is actually like a dedicated server, but a private virtual hosting server costs just a fraction of the price of a dedicated hosting server.

Restrictions of the VPS Hosting Solution

Each VPS plan involves some hard disk storage space, monthly bandwidth and CPU usage restrictions. The Virtual Server suppliers are providing various plans so each customer can select the most relevant package for their requirements. A less powerful virtual server may be used to keep one site, while a more powerful one would be a more applicable platform for accommodating an array of websites and not bothering about resources. We are one of the top web hosting companies and we are offering a bunch of VPS plans.

Web Hosting Control Panel Alternatives: Hepsia, cPanel, DirectAdmin, etc.

The content on a virtual web server is managed via a web hosting CP just like any other cheap shared web hosting package. This may be the web hosting Control Panel that the hosting service company is providing, or any other website hosting Control Panel that the client installs - Hepsia, cPanel, DirectAdmin, Plesk, H-Sphere, etc. All files, email addresses, databases and domain names can be managed through the web hosting CP, and certain user interfaces also offer various levels of management - master reseller, reseller, user, etc. This presents multiple options for business as the virtual hosting server proprietors can resell web hosting accounts or have resellers of their own. More knowledgeable customers can handle everything through a Secure Shell console as well.

Parallels Virtuozzo Containers - A Virtualization Panel

All needed web hosting server, FTP, MySQL, etc. software apps are pre-installed on the virtual private hosting server by default, so there is no reason to bother about that. Software updates, installations, rebooting processes, etc. are all carried out through a virtualization panel that enables the customer to administer the Virtual Private Server via a GUI, which makes the administration of a VPS hosting server simpler and more intuitional. An apt example of such a platform is Parallels Virtuozzo Containers. The admin back-end is also utilized to create and retrieve backups, thus sparing you the time you'd otherwise have had to spend waiting for the hosting corporation's technical support personnel to accomplish these procedures.

VPS Hosting - a Low-Price and Stable Solution

A powerful feature of the VPS plan are the so-called "burstable" resources. If a concrete website is causing huge server load or nears the quota limit at some time, additional resources are allotted to this virtual web server on condition that they are available on the physical server. This enormously helps to keep all web sites online and makes the virtual web server a stable and reliable hosting solution.

A VPS - The Proper Option When You Need More System Resources

A Virtual Private Server is a splendid option for frequently visited web sites that demand a lot of resources. It is sufficiently powerful but at the same time it is much more affordable than a dedicated web hosting. At iClick and Host - Reliable webhosting at lowest prices we provide a couple of different packages, upgrading from one to the other is also easy and no site transfer will be required, so there will be no outage duration as far as the domain names that are hosted on the virtual web hosting server are concerned. The management is not much different than that of a shared web hosting account, but the performance is much greater as far as dependability and speed are concerned.
