How VPS Web Hosting Works

Up till several years ago, the sole means to obtain a functionality-rich web hosting package was to purchase a dedicated server. As a result of recent software app improvements, virtual web servers have been introduced and they've quickly come to be one of the most widely used web hosting solutions as they offer incredible performance at a quite modest price. Also popular as a VPS web hosting or a virtual dedicated server, this hosting server is an excellent platform for heavy resource-demanding web pages.

VPS Web Hosting - Is It Better Than Shared Web Server Hosting?

A couple of virtual servers are set up on a physical server, utilizing its system resources. Each virtual private server works exactly like a dedicated web server and its system resources are guaranteed, incl. the central processing unit load, RAM memory and hard disk space allowances. These system resources are much higher than those offered by any shared hosting plan, so a Virtual Server is the most prudent choice for heavy resource-requiring script-based online portals with lots of viewers, or if you desire to host a huge quantity of domains in the same account.

The Virtualization Interface of a VPS Web Hosting Server

Each virtual private server is administered via a Control Panel GUI, regularly referred to as a virtualization interface. This tool allows you to restart the entire virtual private hosting server or separate services like HTTP, MySQL, and so on, to check and administer all active processes and to monitor the consumed and the unused system resources. As you will have full root-level access, you can also activate server-side applications that may be necessary for specific script-driven platforms to run, review exhaustive web traffic stats and history of all the tasks running on the VPS web hosting. One of the best features of the virtualization panel is that you can use it to quickly activate a Control Panel on the private virtual hosting server.

The Control Panel of a VPS Web Hosting

There are lots of different web hosting Control Panels, but a couple of them are more widely used than the others - Hepsia, cPanel, Plesk and DirectAdmin. If you order a VPS web hosting, you can make use of the web hosting Control Panel that the web hosting vendor is providing, or you can install your own. This tool will allow you to handle domain names, files, databases, File Transfer Protocol accounts, electronic mail addresses and everything related to your web hosting account. Managing a Virtual Server account is not different from managing a shared hosting account, so if you have any experience with the latter, there won't be anything new for you if you get a VPS web hosting. More expert customers can access the virtual hosting server through an SSH terminal as well.

Earn Revenue With Your VPS Web Server

One of the advantages of possessing a VPS Web Server is that specific Control Panel user interfaces offer a reseller admin level, so you can create and sell hosting plans. You can even set up reseller accounts and have other persons carry out the entire job on your behalf, so while you have a virtual private web hosting server for your websites, you can also generate decent money by offering the resources that you do not use. The reseller and web hosting Control Panel interfaces can be integrated with billing and customer support platforms like WHMCS, AWBS or ClientExec, which allows you to create different plans, to bill your clients directly and to offer a 24/7 support service. As you are given complete root access to the virtual private web server, you will be able to activate any server-side apps or libraries that your customers may require for their web sites, so you will have an advantage over web hosts that deliver shared hosting services and cannot install such applications.
