What are Dedicated Servers?
Dedicated servers are servers that are exclusive to one website. This means that you get
your own server which you can alter and add whatever features you need to suit your
website needs. A simple way to understand dedicated servers is by using the analogy of
building a home versus renting a house.
Dedicated server hosting is like building your home from scratch. You have the freedom
to determine how many rooms the house will have, the colors that will be painted, type
of floor boarding you will use, and the type of decor it will have. You have full control
of how the house will look in the end as well as freedom to do additional customizing
futures.
Whether to go for a dedicated server depends on a number of things. First, you have to
consider the size of your website. Ideally, dedicated server hosting is beneficial to large
websites that handle high traffic each day like e-commerce websites. Such websites need
to be consistently fast and reliable with minimal downtime experienced. Only a
dedicated server guarantees reliable uptime.
