One second. That's all you've got to make a first impression.
If you run a small website that has aspirations of becoming a large web presence then you know that you spend as much time promoting your site as you do maintaining it. Your business depends on traffic and you dedicate time and energy to generating that traffic. So imagine what a nightmare it would be to finally get the level of web interest you've beenafter, only to have your website go offline line under the strain? The chances are extremelyhigh that this has happened to you because you host your site on a shared hosting platform. When what you really need is a low cost dedicated server.
Shared hosting platforms appear very inviting at first glance. For very little money they promise unlimited storage space for your site and unlimited bandwidth for user access to your site. But what you may have overlooked is that crucial word "shared." A shared hostingpackage means that a single server hosts multiple websites at the same time. You have no way of knowing which websites you share space with or how popular they are. This is vital information to know because although you have a contract for unlimited bandwidth, a server by its very nature only has a limited number of connections that are available at anyone moment. Too many requests at once and your website will slow to a crawl, if it loads at all. Or worse, your traffic never arrives, because another website on the very same serverhas more traffic than you and is squeezing you out of the system. All that traffic clicks off to some other page because the average web surfer takes less than one second to determine whether a site is worth their time.
Finding the best dedicated server to fit your budget is worth the research time involved when you think about the alternative. Losing all that precious traffic because you were using shared hosting.
