A Virtual Private Server (VPS) gives you more control over your hardware and resources. Your website data is housed in a segregated partition of a server, within which the resources are entirely your own. This is great, as with VPS hosting you won’t be sharing space or bandwidth with other websites, meaning you won’t see a dip in performance when another site receives a spike in traffic. The technical stuff is all yours with a VPS giving you more freedom to configure the server as you need it. Need more resources? You can scale up with ease.
