Benefits of having a VPS
Advantages of using a VPS instead of a normal Hosting
We have previously talked about what is a private server and its main features . In this article we will describe a series of features and benefits of VPS.
When you have shared hosting and your project begins to grow, the conditions offered by shared web hosting are insufficient to function in optimal conditions.
When to switch to a VPS?
If your web project is starting and you do not have major technical requirements to work, you can start with a shared hosting. Also if you are starting as a developer and want to do design tests, programming; if you have an incipient blog, virtual store or e-commerce project or simply a personal website.
You should change when you consider it necessary according to the scalability of your project. That is, once your project matures, develops and grows in visitors, it would be convenient to migrate to a Private Server.
