Dedicated Servers vs Shared/Resell Hosting

Jul 26, 2010

For a long time I had opted for shared hosting or resellers because it seemed like it was the most affordable. I had really wanted to switch to a dedicated server given the perks, namely having my own server and not having to worry about slowness or unreliability when on a shared server due to having to share space with other clients, but doing so wasn’t feasible given that it cost so much per month. Despite that little problem, it still didn’t prevent me from checking out sites like Gigenetcloud.com and other sites to check on prizes.

Shortly after my realizing that I really did want a dedicated server, the opportunity to get one presented itself, which is odd, given that I’m certainly not one of the luckiest people on the planet. In any event this lead me to Compare Gigenetcloud to Other Providers and determine which one would be the most feasible. Essentially a few friends and I got together to split the cost of a server and while I still pay the majority between the 3 of us, I don’t really mind because it is well worth it given the benefits, like daily and weekly back ups, and never having to worry that my site is going to be slow and cumbersome due to an overload on the server because of all the other sites sharing the space as well. All in all, I’m pretty pleased with having a server and given the numerous sites I own– it’s well worth it!
