While dedicated servers have been the standard for maximizing hosting capabilities, increasing use of virtual private servers (VPS) has made the power and performance of a dedicated server available at a fraction of the cost. A multitude of web hosting services are providing the support and resources necessary for businesses large and small, as well as individuals, to make the conversion from shared web hosting to virtual private servers or from a dedicated server to a VPS hosting plan.

VPS services are available with many different options and price points depending on your specific needs. Before choosing your VPS web hosting service, you need to understand your online needs and determine what resources you will need to fulfill them. Utilizing a hosted VPS service almost removes any need for technical knowledge.

Although you still have a lot of decisions to make in terms of your service – think scale, server power, and storage.

Each type of VPS hosting offers its own advantages, and it is completely up to you to decide which VPS hosting plan offers the best option for your needs in terms of resources and pricing.

Each virtual private server can have a different operating system, has root access, can be rebooted independently and can be configured with unique software and applications without affecting any other virtual server.

With a virtual private server, you can dedicate server resources based on your specific preferences and needs. Additionally, you are not subject to the security and performance vulnerabilities of shared web hosting. Virtual private servers run on either Linux or Windows systems, while the choice of user operating system, such as CentOS, Ubuntu, and Debian, is completely up to you.

Leading web hosting company provides more server control with economical virtual private server hosting.

Fulshear, TX (PRESS RELEASE) August 11, 2010 – JaguarPC, a leading web hosting company, announced today how its virtual private server hosting plans are giving small and medium sized businesses more server control to maximize website performance while enhancing security. Website owners can choose the operating system, software, and applications most suited to their needs while experiencing faster performance with JaguarPC’s VPS web hosting.

“As one of the first VPS hosting providers since 2002, JaguarPC VPS hosting customers have and continue to receive a first-class web hosting experience. JaguarPC VPS hosting eliminates slow loading times and buffering delays that typically cause frustration with other web hosting providers,” says Greg Landis, Founder and CEO at JaguarPC. “Our VPS hosting customers have more options, more control, and even greater security and server performance with all VPS hosting plans at JaguarPC.”

JaguarPC VPS web hosting provides each website with its own server resources, allowing each website to be unaffected by the activities of other websites. Designated server resources and choice of operating system and software are key components that drastically enhance website and application performance when using JaguarPC VPS web hosting services. JaguarPC maintains constant uptime and fast loading times with all VPS hosting plans through its state-of-the-art technology and infrastructure.

“JaguarPC’s VPS hosting, available with dedicated server resources, gives our customers freedom to grow their business rapidly without having to worry about exceeding the limits of their hosting plan and provides more flexibility including burstable RAM at 1-4GB and diskspace starting at 15GB,” says Landis. “Root access and full management services are also available with all JaguarPC VPS hosting so customers receive more control and security with their VPS hosting plan.”

JaguarPC VPS hosting customers can run their applications and websites on their own operating systems as JaguarPC virtual private servers are isolated from other websites utilizing the same physical server.

Virtual private server (VPS) hosting is the bridge between shared hosting and dedicated server hosting. With VPS webhosting, website owners have the freedom to configure a complete virtual server based on their specific needs, same as dedicated server hosting, while sharing the costs of the physical server with other website owners, same as shared hosting.

The main benefits VPS hosting provides for websites include security – both physical and network, performance under high traffic conditions, and flexibility with present needs and future growth. This article explores each of these topics in detail and also examines the importance of expert technical support, competitive VPS hosting pricing, and the different VPS hosting options available.

Are VPS hosting plans secure?

As with every type of web hosting, the security of VPS hosting plans depend on the quality of the hosting provider’s data center and the safeguards built to protect data in all circumstances. Important considerations to confirm before purchasing a hosting plan include:

• Routine server backups to protect your website and data.


• SSL and SFTP, both necessary for safe data transmission.


• Network security from malicious attacks.


• Physical protection from natural disasters and emergencies.


• Monitoring of environmental conditions (like heating and cooling) for optimal performance.

Virtual hosting is safer than shared hosting since each VPS-hosted website operates in isolation with its own disk space, applications, and operating system. The vulnerability associated with sharing disk space is eliminated with VPS web hosting as malicious programs or scripts have no access to the separate virtual accounts.

How does VPS webhosting ensure high performance?

Performance, usually measured by fast loading times and constant uptime, is determined by many factors. A website with VPS hosting has its own allocation of disk space and bandwidth, usually much greater than with shared hosting, thereby increasing performance. A VPS hosting website owner may then use these resources to configure his website with the specific applications and software that will lead to optimal performance.

The high traffic of other websites on a server that greatly slows down performance with shared hosting does not occur with virtual private server hosting.

Flexibility – VPS hosting gives you all the choices

Selecting operating systems, applications, software and scripts is one of the most beneficial aspects of VPS web hosting. You may choose the best resources for your website in terms of reaching your audience and optimal performance, the same as when purchasing a dedicated server, but at a lower price. If you wish to test out new software on your VPS hosting account, it does not affect the rest of the server. You may build your website based on experience of what works best. As your website grows, VPS hosting scales easily to support growth and readily transfers to a dedicated server when the time comes to upgrade.

How much does VPS web hosting cost?

With shared hosting, the least expensive of any web hosting service, and dedicated server hosting, in many cases over 30 times the price of shared hosting, how does VPS hosting compare? VPS service costs around 2-5 times the price of shared hosting, giving you the power and control of a dedicated server with a much smaller price tag. The cost of shared hosting can be inflated to reach far more than the price of VPS web hosting when you take into account web visitors’ dissatisfaction with downtime and crashed servers that many websites experience with shared web hosting, resulting in lost revenue and damaged reputation.

What VPS hosting options are there?

Different web hosting providers offer different types of VPS web hosting. Linux VPS hosting, Windows VPS hosting, managed VPS hosting, and VPS reseller hosting are all available options. Each business and website has different needs and areas of expertise. The operating system and applications you want on your website will affect the type of VPS web hosting you choose, as will the time and knowledge you have for managing and monitoring your website hosting. The best option is the one that supports your business now and one that will accommodate future growth seamlessly.

When you hit a snag, get the answers you need

A vital element of VPS webhosting is expert technical support available 24-7-365. Wherever in the world you are located, and whatever time it is, your VPS web host provider must respond quickly and thoroughly to resolve issues and ensure your website is running smoothly. If the web hosting provider has resources available so you can increase your website hosting skills and knowledge, that helps immensely. Then you need not rely on support staff for ongoing issues.

For those outgrowing their shared hosting accounts, virtual private server (VPS) hosting may be the solution you need to get your website loading quickly and functioning optimally. With significantly more memory, power, and disk space than shared hosting, VPS hosting can be the springboard for considerable growth in your business.

Increased traffic and an increased interest in downloads from a website is great for business, until the loading and downloading times discourage visitors and slow the growth that websites need in order to succeed. A shared web hosting account has numerous other websites sharing network resources and increased traffic, especially a sustained increase in traffic, affects every other website sharing that server. A website on a shared hosting plan that experiences a surge in popularity could quickly reach their resource limitation, resulting in serious downtime.

What makes JaguarPC VPS web hosting great for growing businesses?

With JaguarPC VPS web hosting, you share a server with only a few other websites so you have much more disk space, memory and bandwidth to use, and you control your own operating system. Regular backups, software updates, and constant monitoring of the server means you get to focus on growing your web presence and building a relationship with your web visitors instead of worrying about the status of your web hosting.

With your choice of control panel and operating system, full root access and unlimited domains, JaguarPC VPS hosting provides you with the tools you need to control your website environment for optimal performance. JaguarPC’s technical support is available 24-7-365 for any questions, including details about the different VPS hosting plans: Linux VPS hosting, Windows VPS hosting, and managed VPS hosting.
