What are the reasons to choose a Dedicated Server?
A dedicated server is the ultimate in power, security, and control. With a dedicated server, you won’t have to share resources with anyone. Here are some of the top reasons that people choose a dedicated server over other hosting options:
Security is a top priority
If you’re running a major online business, security should be a major priority. With web hosting services that have shared resources (VPS or shared hosting) you run the risk of security breaches and attacks. A dedicated server conversely offers optimal security for your websites and any stored user information.
You expect consistently high levels of traffic
The amount of traffic coming to your website every day is an important factor in your websites’ performance. If you expect high levels of traffic daily, a dedicated server will allow your site to handle even the biggest traffic spikes.
Page load times need to be lightning fast
If your page load times are lagging you will generally experience a negative effect on the performance of your website. Visitors who come to your site will generally only wait for two or three seconds for a page to load before they leave. Avoid losing business and page visitors by hosting your website on a dedicated server where resources are abundant.
You need custom programming options
If you have custom programming needs, a dedicated server is the right option for you. Generally speaking, shared hosting does not give you custom programming options, whereas a dedicated server is yours to configure however you please. You’ll have full control over your server and your hosting environment.
You’re anticipating major growth
If you have a site that will require major resources in the not too distant future, you may find it best to start out with the type of hosting you'll need rather than trying to migrate your site to a dedicated server. Other hosting options will allow you to scale up, but there's a limit to the amount of resources you'll have access to.
