Shared Hosting has evolved significantly over the years, and it is now a stable, reliable, and cost-effective solution for most website applications. However, it may not be suitable for every occasion and script. Shared Hosting is mostly used for entry-level projects, but it can also be used for some large sites and applications.
For an online business showcasing its products with a contact form, a shared hosting environment can remain comfortable and efficient for its entire lifetime. It is also scalable, allowing for growth, and IDS Hosting offers an overage facility for additional space usage.
As the online business grows, the website, database, and email server may require more power, memory, space, custom server settings, dedicated IPs, higher levels of security, and a larger VPS infrastructure. At this point, the hosting provider might approach the online business and recommend a better solution than the shared environment.
For Business Entrepreneurs who are serious about managing risk and staying online no matter what, we recommend the Business Hosting Package. It is a one-stop-shop that offers everything needed, from a shared environment initially to a bolt-on approach that can be easily set up and configured as business conditions change.
