The Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a breakthrough web hosting platform that looks and performs much like a dedicated server, with a price tag comparable to many shared server solutions. VPS is a one-of-a-kind web hosting product that is ideal for businesses with big needs, small budgets, and limited internal IT resources.

A virtual server is a cross between a dedicated server and our regular hosting plans. Virtual Private Servers offer the high-powered hardware and control of a dedicated server as well as the cost savings of a shared-server hosting solution. How? One powerful dedicated server is partitioned into a limited number of virtual servers. Each virtual server operates independently since the entire operating system and Internet services are duplicated for each account (diagram).

Our VPS plans allow extensive customization of the server configuration, including the Apache web server, PHP, CGI, Perl, and the ability to host multiple web sites, along with a wide variety of features. Your VPS server can also be upgraded with advanced features such as ShopSite e-commerce software and Miva Merchant e-commerce software. See our comparison chart for available options and our add-ons page for pricing.

Our latest generation of FreeBSD VPS plans (Basic through Pro Plus) extends the advantages of VPS control, flexibility, and isolation. Never before has a VPS been this close to having your own dedicated server—you can even reboot your VPS. VPS even includes root access via SSH for maximum control over users and applications.

Each Virtual Private Server resides in a protected sandbox that also provides enhanced "fair share" technology, which protects the system resources allocated to each VPS. This is the best defense in preventing any single VPS on a physical server from abusing shared resources and, ultimately, it keeps your website and applications performing consistently. Potentially insecure programs are disabled or removed, and a hacking alert system immediately notifies system administrators of break-in attempts.

Now, our provider has combined the industry leading Sun Solaris™ platform with their exclusive VPS technology to create a powerful and formidable Web site development and hosting solution.
