VPS Hosting FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is VPS Hosting?
VPS (Virtual Private Server) hosting is a type of web hosting where a physical server is divided into multiple virtual machines, each isolated from the others. Each VPS operates independently with its own operating system, resources, and configurations, providing more control and customisation compared to shared environments.
What is VPS Hosting used for?
Virtual private servers are used in a variety of solutions including hosting websites, running applications, managing databases, and more. VPS hosting solutions are particularly beneficial for businesses and individuals who need more resources, security, and control than what shared web hosting can offer, but don’t require the full power or expense of dedicated server hosting.
What is the difference between VPS hosting and web hosting?
The main difference between VPS hosting and web hosting is the level of control and resources. In web hosting, multiple users share the same server resources, which can lead to performance issues if one site consumes excessive resources. Unlike web hosting, VPS hosting provides dedicated resources and greater control, including choice of operating system and full root access, as each VPS operates independently within the server.
How to migrate from web hosting to VPS?
Migrating from shared web hosting to a VPS hosting involves several steps. You will need to choose a VPS plan that suits your requirements in terms of disk space, RAM and CPU.
If you are using Plesk or cPanel, the migration process is easy – simply backup your website data from the shared hosting environment, and then restore this on your VPS. Once your website(s) have been restored on the VPS, you can test to make sure everything is functioning correctly, and finally update your DNS settings to point to your new VPS.
If you already have a shared web hosting service with us and are looking to migrate to VPS hosting, please reach out to our support team and we’ll be able to provide assistance and advice to ensure a smooth transition.
What operating systems are available?
We provide a range of Linux based distributions such as AlmaLinux, Ubuntu, and Debian. The choice and version required depends on your specific needs.
Is an admin panel provided?
We offer a choice of two industry-leading admin panels with our VPS hosting plans; cPanel or Plesk. These are optional, and can make server management easier, especially if you prefer a graphical interface. If you prefer a different panel, you are welcome to bring your own licence.
How much control do I have over my virtual private servers?
Our VPS solutions offer substantial control over your virtual server. We offer full access to the Linux VPS allowing you to configure settings, install software, manage security, and customise the environment according to your needs, unlike shared hosting.
When is the right time to buy a VPS plan?
There are a few situations where your website or application may be better suited towards VPS infrastructure, vs a typical shared hosting solution. The most common reason to switch to a VPS is when you require more processing power than is available with typical hosting plans, or more control over server software, configuration and security; or a specific setting which is not supported by shared hosting environments.
Where are the servers located?
The location of servers can vary by VPS hosting provider. Our servers are based in Manchester, UK.
What is the difference between unmanaged and managed VPS hosting?
Typically, with unmanaged VPS hosting you are responsible for configuring, maintaining, and securing the server. This option offers maximum flexibility and control but requires more technical expertise.
With managed VPS hosting; the VPS provider handles server management tasks such as updates, security, and backups. This option is suitable for those who prefer to focus on their applications and leave server maintenance to the experts.
We offer a combination of both – with no additional fees. Our support engineers are always happy to lend a hand if you need it, but we do not proactively “manage” the VPS containers without instruction from our customers to do so.
