Answer 3)If you are looking for a secure and isolated environment then a VPS is perfect for you. Unlike shared hosting

Answer 5)If your site has outgrown virtual (shared) hosting or your feel you have extended requirements then a VPS
might be the right choice.
One of the main benefits of a VPS is to allow the user full control over the server to make configuration
change that are not allowed on virtual hosting. With this comes the responsibility of managing the VPS
although many hosts may provide basic management for a small fee.
If your requirements include high ram or high disk I/O (throughput) you may need to look at a dedicated
server to allow you more RAM and disk I/O.

Answer 6)You'd be surprised how often we get this question. To be honest, if you are a small hosting company, sure, you
might need one. If you are a small forum, probably not. The need for a VPS can vary, depending on your
specific needs. Do you have a lot of traffic? You might need one. Are you learning administration and want to
test your knowledge? You will probably need one.
A VPS, depending on the virtualization technology can give you all the power of a dedicated server without
the cost. The beauty of MOST VPS's is your resting in the fact that you don't have to worry about hardware
upkeep, or in some cases, server management all together. The point is, if you need a VPS, chose a host that
will work with you. Just like a reseller, a VPS host needs to be a partner that will work with you through
thick and thin to make sure your server is up and running flawlessly all of the time.
