VPS hosting stands for Virtual Private Server hosting. It involves dividing a physical server into multiple virtual servers, each functioning as an independent server with its own operating system and resources.

In shared hosting, multiple websites share resources on the same server, whereas in VPS hosting, each website is allocated its own virtual server with dedicated resources, offering more control and scalability.

VPS hosting provides increased control, customization, and security compared to shared hosting. It allows users to install custom software, scale resources as needed, and enjoy better performance and reliability.

VPS hosting is ideal for websites that have outgrown shared hosting and require more resources and control. It’s suitable for businesses and individuals looking for a scalable hosting solution with better performance and security.
