VPS Hosting
VPS hosting is a strong middle ground between shared hosting and dedicated servers. You get isolated resources (CPU/RAM), full root access in most cases, and predictable performance for projects that have outgrown shared plans.

VPS FAQ
When should I upgrade from shared hosting to VPS?
Upgrade when you need stable performance, custom server software, or you’re hitting CPU/RAM limits on shared hosting.
What matters most for VPS performance?
In practice: storage type (NVMe), CPU generation, network routes/latency to your users, and whether resources are oversold.
Do I need managed VPS?
If you don’t want to manage Linux updates, security hardening, and backups, choose a managed plan or a provider with strong documentation/support.
