When you have a small online business, you are able to perform the running of your business using the services of a standard web host. This means you will be sharing your server with other businesses. This is fine to do until your business expands and it becomes beneficial to have a dedicated server. You will then have the use of this server without sharing the space with anyone else. As your company expands, perhaps with several branches of your business, you will find it more convenient to have all those branches operating with the same software ensuring consistency within your company. There are two main types of dedicated server, dedicated Linux servers and dedicated Windows servers. The main benefit of using a dedicated server is stability for the company. Losing uptime is not going to be productive for your company and will also cost you profit. You also need to know that you are at less risk from viruses and malware. When sharing your hosting space you can be affected by others and experience greater problems from downtime and the threat of viruses. Dedicated Windows servers enjoy a higher profile than Linux although the choice to be made between them is really dependant upon the size of your business, your technical knowledge and personal preference. A dedicated Windows server is likely to be more vulnerable to viruses than Linux. When deciding upon the type of dedicated server it is advisable to use the services of a company such as us at CWCS Compuweb Communication.
