4. Shared Hosting
 The most common type of hosting used by websites
on the Internet today
 Very cost effective,
 In most cases, offers all of your website's needs in
terms of space, bandwidth, emails, etc.
 Why? Because you are sharing the hosting with a lot
of other websites on a single, powerful server.

5. Shared Hosting - advantages
 Low cost (average price is 5-8$ per month per website).
 You can use your own domain name
 You get a lot of software: database, CGI, etc. Most of
them will run automatically.
 If you run a small business and don't expect more than
1000 visitors to your website per day, then shared
hosting is for you.
 You don't really need any technical knowledge.

6. Shared Hosting - disadvantages
 The bandwidth is limited - if your site becomes very
popular you might find yourself running out of
bandwidth quickly.
 The support is usually slower and less personal than
the dedicated option.

7. Dedicated Hosting
 You are the only one using the server.
 You are in total control of the server and what goes
on the server.
 You decide whether to host 1 site or 100 websites.

8. Dedicated Hosting - advantages
 Bandwidth is much much bigger.
 You can tailor database, email and any other
software or application – to your needs.

9. Dedicated Hosting - disadvantages
 Expensive – prices reach a few dozens to a few
hundred of dollars per month.
 You need a lot of technical knowledge – and
especially knowledge in server and database
management.

10. Conclusions
 If you're making your first Internet venture, and your website
is still far from getting a lot of traffic - start with shared
hosting and your own domain.
 Dedicated hosting is ideal for websites with high traffic and
large businesses who want complete control over the server so
they can fine tune their server for e-commerce, etc.
 If your website is enjoying a lot of traffic or is critical to your
business (shopping, for instance) - then it is highly
recommended to use dedicated hosting.
