When any business owner want to grow his online reputation then first of all he needs web hosting for website creation and maintenance on internet. Depending on business you can choose two web hosting services one is Shared Hosting and other is Dedicated Hosting.
Difference between Shared and Dedicated Web Hosting: -
Sites Hosted on the Server: In the Shared Web Hosting web Space is shared by the other users also means one server is hosted by many sites. Whereas In Dedicated Hosting a separate server is allotted by Web Hosting Providers not shared among others.
Bandwidth or Disk Space: In Shared Hosting, the disk space and bandwidth is limited because it is also shared with other sites hosted on same server. You can get more space by costing more money in shared hosting if available. But in Dedicated whole bandwidth and disk space is allotted to you. No Partition in disk-space and bandwidth.
Costs: Disk space and resources are shared between many hosts that's why total cost is very less that's why shared Web Hosting is very cheap Plan. Whereas in Dedicated Hosting you are fully dedicated for using the server and that's why it is costlier then shared hosting.
Required Technical Skills: In Shared Hosting your security and maintenance is operated by Shared hosting Provider. But if you are using Dedicated server then you need Webmaster who knows the technical knowledge for managing and securing the server.
Security: With Shared Web Hosting, security is the big issue because one server is shared by many users and virus, malware and spyware can attack on your site because of others. But in dedicated hosting you are fully dedicated to install and update the security programs so there is less chances of virus and malware.
Blacklisting Of Website: In shared Hosting the chances of blacklisting or block by search engines crawlers is increased because of spamming techniques by other site holders which are sharing same server. In Dedicated server it doesn't happen until you don't do spamming techniques.
Server Performance and Response Time: In Shared hosting the same resources are shared among more users. and sometime because of traffic overflow whole server response-time and speed goes slow. But in Dedicated server it does not happen. Because here you are single and you have space and bandwidth enough for your business.
