Shared web hosting is a way to get your website online with a reliable server. It has drawbacks when compared with a dedicated server. Depending on your type of business, or reason for your website, you may be better off using shared web hosting.
The following types of websites are much better off using shared web hosting than a dedicated server:
* Fan websites that do not sell products but are devoted to a particular celebrity;
* Personal websites that are used to keep in touch with family members all over the country;
* Self promotion websites, such as those that post your resume or art;
* Small business websites that sell a service where the client calls your phone number;
* Small business websites that sell specialty items and do not generate a lot of traffic.
These sites will do well with shared service hosting. The way shared web hosting works is that the server hosts many different websites that all share the space and bandwidth. The above websites are typical examples of those that can benefit from a shared service website that costs little money to maintain each month as well as low start up costs.
