Yes! Hosting comes in all different shapes and sizes, with different setups suitable for different types of a webmaster. In general, hosting can be broken up into the following categories:
Shared Hosting: This is usually the cheapest form of hosting because it’s the most affordable among the four, when it comes to the use of hardware. Shared hosting means that multiple (more than one) different websites are all hosted on the same server, with each user being allocated a certain amount of storage space, Bandwidth, databases and a certain amount of other resources. This is often the best option for startups and bloggers.
VPS Hosting: A virtual private server is a step-up from shared hosting and costs more, VPS setup is more like a advanced shared hosting setup . It generally uses more powerful hardware and takes its name from the fact that while multiple websites are being stored on the same physical hardware, each uses virtualisation software to allow them to operate independently as though they were dedicated mini-servers.
Dedicated Hosting: Dedicated hosting or a dedicated server is a good choice for the pros, it involves the use of a server that’s dedicated to a single website. In other words, unlike shared hosting and VPS server, the user doesn’t have to share storage space, IP address and resources with other people and they have a physical piece of hardware all to themselves.
Cloud Hosting: Cloud hosting allows webmasters to tap into multiple servers that are all interlinked and designed to take over from each other if needed. In other words, if you need more resources, the cloud will provide more resources to rise to the demand. Cloud hosting is usually the best option if you want to aim for 100% uptime and don’t care how much you need to pay for it.
