Web hosting and cloud hosting-where is web hosting better than cloud hosting

Now, with the increase in the use of cloud servers, many users who use traditional virtual hosting (shared web hosting) have begun to choose cloud hosting because the latter is relatively better and faster. But the former also has its own advantages.

The following are the advantages of virtual hosting:

1. economically affordable

The cost of cloud hosting is higher as its rental fees and upgrading charges on main machines cost a lot. Each year sees an average of several thousand dollars. An alternative Web hosting is relatively inexpensive and it only costs hundreds of dollars a year. This is a good choice for webmasters who lack funds.

2. More secure Data on virtual hosting

All content on the website is stored in the Internet, among which trade secrets and personal information may be urgent to be encrypted. In particular, hackers are huge threats to users. virtual hosting is used to store data on the server, which is relatively safer. However, it cannot completely exclude hacker attacks; it is obviously that store data on shared web hosting is much safer than on a cloud hosting. Today's cloud hosting have not yet presented a particularly ideal security performance so webmasters who track safe website will undoubtedly choose traditional hosting.

3. Lower time delay for virtual hosting

Data use through cloud hosting is directly performed on computers, which may have time delay sometimes. While virtual hosting is different. It bypasses the transportation network and directly accesses the Internet. The number of network path between the website and users is reduced, so time delay will be also less.

4. More flexible virtual hosting 

Cloud hosting is not as flexible as virtual hosting. If you want to use cloud hosting, you need ensure that your website has vendor-specific application or format of that cloud hosting. If you want to upgrade your website, your data will be lost, and you will not be able to insert spreadsheet files created as Google documents in other applications. If you use a virtual hosting, you can upgrade the site at any time without worrying about data loss.

5.Comprehensive support on virtual hosting

Compared with virtual hosting, the concept of cloud is developed lately, and its technology is not yet perfect, so it also has no perfect technical support. However, cloud computing is evolving; its technology is also improving; and many people are studying this field. Choosing virtual hosting or cloud hosting depends on your need.
