If you are someone who regularly creates websites, forums or blogs you will know that there are two kinds of hosting available. Shared hosting which is usually more affordable but you are on servers sharing with others for your hosting. You then have dedicated hosting in which you have a dedicated server for your hosting and you do not share with others but this usually costs more due to it being dedicated hosting but the service is usually so much more better.

I have only ever used shared hosting myself as that has been all I was able to afford in the past. I never noticed too many issues using shared hosting and it was only the odd time I would see dip outs but most of the time they would let us know if there was going to be down time.

I haven't ever created a website, forum or blog so i don't really know much of the two kind of hosting available. Since you said shared hosting is quite affordable, i guess i prefer it to dedicated hosting.
 
If you are just starting out then a shared hosting provider is something you will want to consider especially if you are looking at cost. But you should always put plans of moving to a dedicated server whenever the website starts to grow.
 
Hello,

It depends on your need that why you need the hosting service.

Dedicated hosting is better for the server because it doesn't have to share resources with other sites.
However, it's also more expensive, depending on the budget. Shared hosting is excellent for beginning sites. With a shared server, I can have 100 sites on the same server.
Shared hosting is more for a fundamental and low-traffic website. Shared hosting involves sharing a server with many other users, so running a website costs much less than a dedicated server.

Dedicated server hosting means you are the only site on the server. Shared hosting limits your disk space and bandwidth because other sites share the server.
Dedicated hosting is the most expensive but also the best in terms of quality and support. Dedicated hosting is for those who want to control their server and have complete access to the information that's stored on it.

I prefer dedicated hosting to shared hosting because dedicated hosting provides one user with an entire server that is dedicated solely to their website. Dedicated hosting typically provides more resources and more control as compared to shared hosting, where multiple websites are hosted on one server, with each website sharing the server's resources
 
Well, dedicated hosting is far better than shared hosting, however, I am using shared hosting for all of ny websites. That's because my websites do not use a lot of resources, do not get a lot of traffic, and do not deal with secured data, for instance payment information.
 
I would go with shared hosting as a beginner. If my blogs ever get big enough, making at least $1,000 per month, I may consider going for dedicated hosting if it's not more than 10% of my annual earnings.

Whereas dedicated hosting is ideal for larger sites or websites with certain hardware needs, shared hosting is optimal for smaller websites that don't necessitate a great deal of resources.
 
i prefer dedicated hosting a the advantage you can get from it are numerous to mention and i think the only thing you can consider shared hosting over dedicated hosting is the cost.

I ma not sure what is the difference between the two. Is dedicated hosting a kind of hosting where you pay for all of your bills and receive specific support for issues related to hosting platform?
