Is VPS better than a Reseller Account

[cliffJ]

I am not a customer of eUKhost. At another web host company, I have purchased a uk reseller hosting account which is clustered, don't know why, but I am getting headache everytime as its failing once a week. Is this because of the other reseller hosting accounts with resource hog clients or anything else ?

Shall I opt for a virtual private server to solve this issue permanently ? I am hosting some important political websites and good e-commerce shops that are needed to keep up round the clock. Can a VPS server solve my issue ? Are they reliable and stable ?

The other option you have is , it provide you a 100% Uptime Guarantee

Nope, I dont think so. Since he is hosting a couple of websites and probably managing them as well, a Shared Cloud cannot be a viable solution IMO. Either a VPS or a package can be considered for that purpose.
I would suggest you to take a look at the services offered by Eukhost Ltd., I'm one of the happy customers hence feel the responsibility of passing on a positive word of mouth about them :wink:

This entirely depends upon your requirements. Both VPS and Reseller accounts can be managed efficiently with proper supporting environment.

If you are looking for clustered service with more resources, then Cloud hosting is a deal you are looking for your business websites. We provide Cloud Servers which are in Hardware Virtualization platform providing high scalability and great reliability. eUKhost's Cloud Server Hosting Services in UK Only at eUKhost

And if you think Reseller is what you need for your websites, then we also have 'Shared Cloud Hosting' which is a combination of shared and cloud hosting providing dual benefits of cost effectiveness and 100 % uptime.
You certainly need to have one of these packages to experience the performance

Hello,

As you said that you are hosting some important political websites and good e-commerce shops , I would suggest you to go for a VPS with hardware virtualization such as vmware .

Well, for several websites, a VPS, or even a dedicated server, would be a good option. Depending on the sites' size and traffic, you could choose any of Linux virtual private servers offered by eUKhost. However, for complete reliability, control and flexibility, you should consider a dedicated server. I've never worked with a reseller account, so I can't tell you anything about that...

Whether you need a VPS or not depends on how busy your websites are in terms of visitor traffic and how important you think they are to ensure they are kept online. Because with Shared Hosting or Reseller Hosting, you are being hosted on a server with hundreds of other websites. While you are hosted on a high-performance server, if your website is quite important - perhaps if it is an e-commerce website, if another website starts causing issues that affects the server, perhaps the website is using too many server resources, then you may well want to opt for a virtual private server. Remember if you are not experienced at setting up the security configuration of your VPS, make sure you request eUKhost to configure and set up the VPS so it is completely secure and ready to use. You can do this when you purchase your VPS (that is if you intend to purchase a VPS with eUKhost - since you are posting on the forum) .
