  • Dedicated Hosting
  • Shared Hosting
01

What is Dedicated Hosting?

Dedicated hosting is a single web hosting environment that’s dedicated to the needs of a single website. This is typically for websites that are large, receive a high volume of traffic, or require a unique hosting setup. In dedicated hosting clients get complete control over their server environment. This allows for complete server customisation and is ideal for larger organisations.

02

How does dedicated hosting work?

With dedicated server hosting, you’re renting an entire physical server. This provides you with unparalleled customisation and control over your server environment. Plus, you’ll have access to higher levels of server resources. With a dedicated server, you’ll be able to customise your CPU type, operating system, and the total amount of RAM and storage available.

03

How does dedicated server hosting differ from shared hosting?

With dedicated hosting, you have access to the entire server. With shared hosting, you’re simply renting a portion of that same server. You can think of it in terms of an apartment building. If you choose a shared hosting environment you’re renting a single apartment. While with a dedicated server you’d be renting the entire building, and keeping every room open for your own needs. You can see why dedicated hosting is typically a much more expensive option. Instead of sharing resources with hundreds of other websites on the same server you’ll have access to the entirety of the server’s resources for your own website.

04

What’s the difference between managed and unmanaged dedicated hosting?

With unmanaged dedicated hosting, you’ll essentially be renting a blank server, and customizing it to your liking. You’ll be in charge of technical tasks like server maintenance, security, software updates, and everything else required to keep your server secure and running. With managed dedicated hosting, you’ll typically have a team of experts that will help to setup and manage your dedicated server. You’ll usually have to do some technical tasks yourself, but that list will be much smaller than if you were running an unmanaged dedicated server.

05

What are the drawbacks of dedicated hosting?

Dedicated hosting isn’t the best fit for every kind of website owner. For starters, they’re much more technical to manage. Sometimes even requiring an entire team. If you’re less technical, but still require a dedicated server, there are managed dedicated server hosting packages that will reduce the number of technical tasks you must perform. Another disadvantage is the cost. Dedicated server hosting environments will be the most expensive option available to you. So, if you’re just starting out, or have a low budget for hosting, then there are better options out there.

01

What is Shared Hosting?

Shared hosting is the most common type of web hosting. In this, either a single server or a group of servers are organized in such as a way so as to share their hardware and software resources in such a way to host multiple websites and applications on it. In other words, shared hosting users make use of the same resources on a sharing basis for general hosting purposes.

02

What are the Pros of Shared Hosting?

Shared Hosting is nowadays so cheap that you can buy it at the cost as low as R14.00 per month. it's also the best fit for newbies and blogging beginners who have a very limited budget to start their online journey. Shared Web Hosting plans comes with pre-installed hosting management software like cPanel and you need not worry about setting up the server configurations yourself. It’s a readymade package that offers you features like One-Click Installation of most of the popular Web Software like WordPress, Magento, Joomla, etc.

03

When I use shared hosting, will it be difficult to upgrade in the future?

You won't have to go through much to upgrade because the packages are designed to be scalable depending on your needs. You can easily upgrade your package by purchasing a different product on your ClientSpace Account and if you need to switch to dedicated servers you only need to contact us on support@okuhledigital.co.za and we will assist you with the upgrade including backups and ensuring minimal disruption of uptime.

04

Why would I want to share, when I can have my own server?

Besides the glaringly obvious price difference, your website may not need the whole server space to function properly. In fact, if you’re a small e-commerce site, or run a simple personal site, chances a shared hosting environment is sufficient. Not only do you save money, you also know that each penny you pour into your site is going towards something useful.
