A VPS is a small server. It is not a physical server, but a large physical server divided into small small servers, with each such server having root access. Such small servers are called VPS, but the customers get a feeling that the server is virtually their own and hence the name. It is not a complete server, but a virtual server giving a feeling of a physical server. You will have full admin access to the server.

A virtual private server (VPS) is a virtual machine sold as a service by an Internet hosting service. A VPS runs its own copy of an operating system, and customers have superuser-level access to that operating system instance, so they can install almost any software that runs on that OS.

A VPS hosting environment mimics a dedicated server within a shared hosting environment. It is technically both shared hosting and dedicated hosting.

A VPS is basically a Dedicated Server without the high costs. With Unmanaged Virtual Servers we take a physical server and partition it off into separate sectors.

VPS hosting is cheaper compared to Dedicated Server. But you need to have some technical knowledge to administer your server. If you are owning a website which requires more bandwidth than what a Shared Hosting offers, VPS might be a best choice.

It gives you the same features of a dedicated server. Except you won't get as much space and bandwidth.

VPS hosting is a Virtual Private Server, and is a virtualized server. A VPS hosting environment mimics a dedicated server within a shared hosting environment. It is technically both shared hosting and dedicated hosting.
VPS Hosting is one of several types of web hosting accounts you can choose from to host your website online. To have a website on the internet, you need to have your website files on a web server. Setting up and managing a server can not only be expensive, but difficult too. Purchasing web hosting allows someone to rent space on a web server, making it easier for the average person to have host a website online because all they need to do is upload their site files (no server setup is needed on their part).

All three of these hosting account types are similar in the fact that they all give you a web server to run your website on. They vary in how they are setup, the features they offer, and the level of customization you can have with each one. Check out more information about our various VPS plans and features.
