You can look towards a Semi-dedicated server as a higher and better version of VPS's as it offers more resources i.e. disk space, bandwidth and RAM and the hardware node is shared between a less number of users.

The main difference is, most VPS's are unmanaged, meaning you have to manage them yourself if something goes wrong you have to fix it, etc etc. Whereas Semi Dedicated Hosting, your host will take care of most, if any, issues.


As for Dreamhost you shouldn't use them as they offer "unlimited", which they state is not true at all here -> http://www.dreamhost.com/unlimited.html

Also, depending on your needs, they are what people call "onshore" which isn't very warez related friendly.

If you have any other questions, feel free to contact me at anytime so I can explain more :)

No it's not.
Theres a very big different between them all.
If you know nothing about them, please do not post your useless comments as it will confuse the person who made this topic.

I have now reported the topic to be cleaned since there are soo many off topic posts.
 
Still under VPS you have full control, under semi-dedicated you have access only to Cpanel, thats it. So, yes, you have more resources than at classic shared hosting, but less control under it.

That is correct, but sometimes that's all people need.
Alot of people don't know how to run a VPS, or don't want to learn; or possibly just can't be bothered to manage their own server.

If your website goes down in the middle of the night, would you rather someone else take care of it for you? Or wake up yourself and spend hours trying to get it back up? then figuring out the issue and try to prevent it.

with SDH it makes it much easier for clients.
 
Semi-Dedicated works the same way as shared, its just not shared with so many people
maybe 10 the most meaning better speed,quality,resources,etc
 
If you know what your doing get a vps, you control everything, like a dedicated server. If you want shared hosting except with more resources get semi-dedi.

@JJJ, useless post.

in otherwords you wont get full control with a sd.
this has been told 9999times.

Way to over exaggerate, Nancy. It actually was not really said. It was put as "you have full control" so I put it in a way everyone would understand


That's not always true, some hosts allow for SSH Access under certain circumstances. [And WrzHost is not the only host who offers SDH :P ]

But again guys, keep it on topic no need to argue. If someone states the same thing again it's okay, they're only trying to help, or put what someone else said in better terms.
 
wrzhost is not the only one that provides sdh, also check: mafiahost.eu

and i think sandino will introduce their sdh soon right? i thought you had that idea.:)
