Dedicated IP web hosting
The web hosting company whose services you use can make a huge difference to your website. This difference can be positive or 
negative in nature. The impact it has on website depends upon on two factors:
• Level of service of the web hosting company
It is safe to say that the fortune of a website depends upon the web hosting company to a large extent. However, once your website is up and running, there are other factors to consider too. The next important aspect to consider is whether you are willing to share the serve space with other websites or would you like to have a dedicated server for your website? This article aims to review the pros and cons of shared and dedicated IP hosting.
As an owner of a website, you would already know that every website on the Internet has its IP address. The IP address refers to the Internet Protocol address. The IP address is a unique form of Internet address that identifies the server of the website. IP address can also identify the domain names of the websites. In simple words, this means that a user can make use of both the IP address or the domain name of the website in order to access it on the Internet. There are some websites that share their web hosting place.
Others however, maintain their own web hosting space or server. Whether a website has its own exclusive IP address or a shared IP address depends upon whether the web hosting space is being shared or not. Normally, small or medium-sized websites share their web hosting space. This arrangement is referred to as ‘virtual hosting’, or shared hosting. Under virtual hosting, several websites share the same web hosting space or server, as a result of which they possess the same IP address too. Large websites, on the other hand, or those websites that receive a lot of Internet traffic, usually enjoy a dedicated web hosting space or server. Such websites tend to have a separate and unique IP address.
The best aspect of virtual hosting is its price. If you decide to share your web hosting space or server with other websites on the Internet, you can be rest assured that it will be an extremely inexpensive option for you. The factors that do affect the pricing of a shared web hosting space are the storage space, the technology used in your website, as well as the bandwidth requirements of your website. Depending upon the above-mentioned factors, the price of a shared web hosting space can range from $3-$20 per month. However, shared web hosting spaces are also prone to frequent server crashes and slow speed.
A dedicated web hosting space, on the other hand, costs much more but it also provides its users with a lot of features and advantages. In other words, it really pays to have an exclusive or a dedicated web hosting space, along with a unique IP address. It offers you more control of the server or IP hosting space. The second great benefit of a dedicated IP hosting space is that irrespective of the volume of traffic, the speed of the server remains fast. The third advantage of a dedicated IP hosting space is that it allows for easier and hassle-free setups, such as anonymous FTP or secure socket layer encryption or SSL.
