R What are the advantages of VPS hosting, and what is it?
A virtual private server is a dedicated hosting platform in other words, and VPN hosting is significantly different from shared web hosting
in that it provides exceptional performance, an isolated environment, and CPU, RAM, and storage that are 100% dedicated to your site and not made
available to other websites or applications who may be using the same web host.
VPS hosting offers improved security, speed, and control over the server in contrast to shared hosting along with:
- More resources, bandwidth, and traffic accommodation.
- Quicker load times.
- Unlimited traffic.
- Greater administrative control over security.
- Lowered susceptibility to cyberattacks.
Choose to not go with VPS web hosting and there is a higher likelihood that other websites on the server could be compromised. Another big
benefit of VPS is that you can install any application you want without any limitations because of root access, another feature you will not have with
shared hosting. Unrestricted access to and control over the server logons, settings, and system files is a big plus for a lot of administrators.

hosting you can choose between Windows and Linux operating systems with Plesk Obsidian, Webhost Edition or cPanel/WHM optional control panels.
Fully Managed VPS hosting and one-time paid task-based services may be best for those who lack the time or expertise to operate their server.
R What distinguishes fully managed VPS hosting from self-managed VPS hosting? How do I choose the one that is best for me?
Self-Managed VPS Hosting is a popular choice for developers and system administrators who have the required fundamental command line and
Linux comprehension, plus the technical expertise to manage their site and make changes based on the different performance metrics observed with
it.
Fully Managed VPS Hosting is the alternative, and with it you can have your VPS web hosting provider take care of all the technical details
so you get to devote that time to running your business or seeing to whatever other interest has you placing your website online.
R Does 4GoodHosting provide VPS hosting for Windows and Linux?
Yes, Windows and Linux (CentOS or Ubuntu) servers are among your choices with 4GoodHosting VPS Hosting.
R How many IPs does VPS hosting come with?
Our VPS hosting allows you to have up to three free dedicated IP addresses included with your plan and can be used for email, staging sites,
custom applications, and other administrative duties. Dedicated IP addresses may be required when servers runs any custom software, and some kinds of
software won’t operate properly if they don’t have a dedicated IP to work with.
Control panel administration is a consideration here too, as is email deliverability. It is often necessary to split up websites to increase
security and isolate services, and in these case you split the site and control panel across two distinct IP addresses. Delivering emails can be a
problem if your email address is name@mydomain.com (example) or another domain-based email address, and having more than one dedicated IP can be
helpful for avoiding and of these types of issues.
R Where are your servers located?

R How much time does it take to set up my server?
We can establish your account in a very short period of time usually , but in some instances it could take up to 24 hours to set up your
server. We do try to speed up that process if the customer makes us aware that it is a more urgent matter for any reason.
