Virtual Web Hosting
What is virtual web hosting?
Virtual web hosting is simply another name for web hosting that has more than one site per server. In reality around 97% of all sites on the Internet today are actually using virtual hosting accounts.
The reasons virtual hosting is attractive to website owners are clear:
- Virtual hosting splits the cost of a webserver amongst several sites hosted on it. A whole server for a single site can cost in excess of US$500 per month.
- The costs of server administration are also split
- Virtual hosting clients have access to all of the features they would on their own server
- Accounts are kept separate so one virtual hosting client cannot see the other virtual hosting clients files
All things considered, virtual hosting is the logical choice for the vast majority of sites online today.
