Short for a Virtual Private Server, a VPS refers to the partitioning of a physical server into multiple ones. Since each VPS features its own Operating System (OS), it receives a specific share of resources from one physical server so they are isolated, unable to interfere, and can be separately rebooted.

VPS Hosting is a type of web hosting that’s suited for those who have outgrown Shared Hosting. Since multiple websites reside on a single web server with Shared Hosting, with no guarantee of resources, VPS Hosting allows for fewer users to share allocated resources of hard drive space, memory, and processor power. Each user on a VPS server has access to a virtual machine that runs on its own copy of an Operating System (OS). This lets VPS Hosting customers experience similar capabilities and performance levels of a Dedicated Server for their web hosting services.
In order for your website to be seen online, you need a web hosting service. Web hosting services differ by how the servers are set up (i.e. the space allocated) and the type of access that people (aka hosting customers) have to them. Every website you’ve ever visited has a website hoster. The main types of website hosting are Shared, Dedicated, VPS and Reseller.
Shared Hosting is a type of web hosting where a single physical server hosts multiple websites. Considered the cheapest hosting plan, many users utilize the resources on a single server, which keeps the costs low. Users each get a section of that server where they can host their website files. Shared servers can host hundreds of users. Each customer who uses the Shared Hosting server has access to such features as databases, monthly traffic reports, disk space, email accounts, FTP accounts, and other add-ons offered by the hosting provider. System resources are shared on-demand by users on the server, where each one gets a percentage of everything from RAM and CPU as well as the single MySQL, Apache, and mail servers.
Managed WordPress Hosting simply means that all technical aspects of running a WordPress website are taken care of (i.e. managed) by the web hosting provider. Managed WordPress Hosting, EasyWP, also features a user-friendly dashboard that allows you to update, manage, and back up all of your future installations. This means that you don’t have to figure out how to use a control panel (cPanel or Plesk) to manage your website. (As a friendly reminder, cPanel is a dashboard that is used to control your hosting environment.)
Choosing a VPS host usually implies that you already have some basic server management knowledge and skills. With us, however, you can rely on us to set up everything for you. If you prefer to do things on your own, please refer to our Knowledgebase article, specifically the VPS services section.
VPS Hosting is perfect if you need more resources (compared to Shared Hosting) but prefer not to spend as much (compared to Dedicated Server Hosting). When deciding what VPS Hosting plan is right for you, the following three factors should be considered: 1) the amount of resources required to host your website, which includes CPU, RAM, and bandwidth; 2) your OS choice (as some applications may require a specific OS) and 3) your choice of Server Management (User-Responsible, Basic or Complete). “User-Responsible” means you handle all technical and administrative tasks yourself, “Basic” means you receive a proactive response if unexpected server failure occurs and “Complete” means all technical and administrative tasks related to your VPS are handled for you. You can also think of it as fully-managed VPS Hosting.
First-time EasyWP, VPS and Shared Hosting customers are eligible for our 30-day money-back guarantee. Addons for web hosting services and Private Email Hosting are non-refundable.
Whenever you purchase hosting from us, we offer you a monthly uptime guarantee. If for some reason we don’t deliver on this guarantee, which is determined by us, you’ll be eligible for a prolonged service cycle—depending on your chosen web hosting plan.
Your annual Shared Hosting plan comes with one domain name on offer. You have a wide range of top-level domain names (TLDs) available with discounts up to 100% for the first year.
All of our web hosting services, besides Email Hosting, work with your website. If you’re a beginner and you’re looking for the simplest way to host, we recommend EasyWP, which takes care of all the technical aspects, or Shared Hosting, which is one of the cheapest hosting plans and also features the free Website Builder tool. If you’re looking for web hosting that scales to your business needs, a VPS or Dedicated Server is the perfect website hoster choice.
