At HostEONS, we offer a full range of hosting solutions designed to fit everything from basic websites to heavy-duty enterprise apps. Let’s break down the real differences β€” and help you choose the right plan based on real-world use cases.


🌐 What Is Shared Hosting?

In Shared Hosting, multiple users share the same physical server and its resources (CPU, RAM, bandwidth, storage).

  • βœ… Cheapest hosting option
  • βœ… Beginner-friendly and fully managed
  • ❌ Limited customization
  • ❌ Performance depends on other users (β€œnoisy neighbors” problem)

Best for:

  • Personal blogs, portfolio websites
  • Small business websites
  • Lightweight WordPress installations

πŸ–₯️ What Is VPS Hosting (Virtual Private Server)?

VPS uses virtualization technology (KVM at HostEONS) to split a physical server into multiple isolated virtual environments.

Each VPS has dedicated virtual resources (CPU, RAM, Storage) and full root access, but shares the hardware.

  • βœ… Dedicated resources
  • βœ… Full root/SSH access
  • βœ… Install any OS or software you need
  • ❌ Physical resources still technically shared (but isolated)

Best for:

  • Medium-sized websites and growing businesses
  • Developers needing staging or app hosting environments
  • Running lightweight VPNs, game servers, or private servers

πŸ–₯οΈπŸ”’ What Is VDS Hosting (Virtual Dedicated Server)?

VDS Hosting is the next level up from VPS.

It still uses virtualization (KVM) but gives you dedicated CPU cores β€” not shared at all.

It’s almost like having a full dedicated server, but at a much more affordable price point.

  • βœ… Dedicated full CPU cores
  • βœ… Guaranteed RAM and storage IO performance
  • βœ… Full root access with no noisy neighbors
  • βœ… Perfect for heavy workloads and enterprise-level apps

Best for:

  • High-traffic websites and large e-commerce stores
  • Video encoding, machine learning, heavy databases
  • SaaS projects, private cloud infrastructure
  • Business-critical apps where uptime and speed are non-negotiable
