Virtual Private Server is like a private server because you have guaranteed a minimum amount of disc space and CPU usage. The advantage is that you are not at the mercy of other sites on a shared hosting company. You can also often have more CPU usage an. However, Virtual Private servers can have their own problems, especially if you don’t get a managed VPS.
vHost didn’t work well. The server crashed twice in our first 30 days so we got our money back. Though someone else said it has performed well.
Dreamhost VPS. This is quite easy to use and you can select how much CPU use and mysql database you want to buy. When I tried it, the VPS was very new and my sever kept going down and manually needed restarting by me. The effect was that I had far more down time than on shared hosting. Fortunately, I was able to move back to shared hosting. This problem may have been resolved by now, though.
Hostican VPS. So far so good. For VPS, we recommend choosing managed VPS, it is more expensive; I know some who had problems with DNS on a non managed Hostican VPS.
This is the 3 hosts we have tried. But, I’m still looking for a reliable, good value private server with high resource availability
