Since 2002, the Internet has grown immensely leading to people using it for various tasks each day. As the web expands even more, there will be less space for the websites to develop additional pages. In addition, you need to think about how the website is going to be hosted while you are creating it.

Large companies can afford to have a dedicated web server or servers, but smaller companies and individuals usually can not afford to have a dedicated server for their web site. For these individuals there are a few alternatives available. They can either use a web hosting service to host their web sites, or they can use a virtual web server to host their web site. Both of these alternatives have strengths and weaknesses.

The web hosting plan typically lets you upload whatever web information to a server provided to you and then the information is configured so others can see it on the Internet. This type of plan is relatively inexpensive, but it can be limited in what can be configured by the individuals or the companies on their own.

However since the configuration of these plans are very easy, you do not need to have a large internal I.T. department to implement your plans. Web hosting plans are also a very good fit for your web site if you do not need to have access to a database.

Virtual web servers are ideal for using only one server to take care of a number of websites registered in different domains. This virtual web server runs on a single operating system with a single server and hosts number websites. These two ways of hosting websites differ as far as the virtual one let you access configuration files as well as FTP and mail on the virtual server.

This gives you quite a bit more control over all of the functions that a normal web server would allow you to do. However you need to know more about configuring a web site if you use a virtual web server. The best thing about a virtual web server is that you have much more control and the ability to do many different things that you can not do with a web hosting plan.
