As convenient and affordable sharedhosting can be, it has its limits and people need to know what those limitsare. Webmasters need to know the right time they have to start looking awayfrom their shared host and upgrade their website to VPS hosting. Yes, sharedhosting might have done good things for you and your site but a website growingin traffic, having regular viewers and patrons, ramping up the data andbandwidth usage deserve a better host.

VPS is the simply the next level fromshared web hosting. Primarily, the idea ofVPS hosting is almost the same withshared hosting, as VPS servers are partitioned from a single dedicated server.But unlike shared web hosting, the virtual partitioning of VPS hosting meansthat each website being hosted at a particular VPS has a world of its own. Inshared web hosting, all the websites in the server share the same disk (diskspace), the same processor, the same RAM, the same IP and bandwidth and mostimportantly they share the same operating system.
