Choosing The Best Web Server For Your Online Business - The more popular...
(Page 2 of 3 )
The more popular server is Virtual Hosting. This is a single server that is shared with many users. Because it's controlled by an administrator, you don't need to worry about technical skills. However, you don't have as much control as you would with a Virtual Private Server, because every time you want to change something in your settings, you have to contact the admininstrator. Secondly, you're only allowed one website, so if you want to start a second site, you have to create a new account. The good news is, it's a great deal at only about 20 to 50 dollars per month. So if you have a small business with just one or two websites, and you don't want to worry about technical skills , Virtual Hosting is the best choice.
You also have to think about web server software. One type is Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS). It only works with NT-based server systems, as NT is a Microsoft product.
