What is a dedicates web server?

Dedicated Server Web hosting is basically leasing an entire web server from a provider. The hard disk storage is basically of huge capacity and the technical support is quite comprehensive. The dedicated option enables the maintenance of a huge website while not worrying about hiring the support staff.

Dedicated server web hosting provides you an opportunity to lease an entire server with on-site technical assistance. You can modify the server to suit your need. You should choose a dedicated server hosting if your site needs to be tailor-made to your requirements or if you need committed resource in your site because of the heavy amount of traffic.

Advantages of Dedicated Server Hosting

Dedicated server web hosting provides many attractive features like the following:

• There is no need to buy own equipment
• Updating/maintaining your equipment is not required
• Flexibility of package depending on storage space and data transfer allocation
• The regular features are commonly declared
• Upgrade needs can be executed from the same dedicated server and Web Host Provider
• High speed servers which are also robust and packs a high capacity upon purchase
• Improving your server or adding a fresh server is more convenient and less costly. Enhancements can be implemented less than 24 hours upon submission of job order to the host site. Improvements are cheaper because only the cost of monthly rentals is being paid, and not the whole cost of investment. The difference between the package of current system and the latest system is being settled, for both the introductory and the monthly cost.

Disadvantages of Dedicated Server Hosting

The most alarming feature of managed dedicated servers is the price, but there are other setbacks as well.
• Dependent on the web hosting provider
• If allocation for transfer of data is surpassed, a financial charge is appraised.
• The dedicated web servers provider charges heavy fees each month as payment is not only for the physical hosting, but also for the hardware on which the site is located. Though this may appear cheaper in the short term compared to the large investment expenditures needed to get co-location implemented, in the long run this model is much more costly.
