I need to know what is faster between 1. VPS Guarantee 512 ram ( http://www.pair.com/services/vps/vqs2.html Code (markup): ) vs 2. Share host ( http://www.hostgator.com/shared.shtml Code (markup): ) Thank you.
Absolutely impossible to say, but if I was having to put a bet on it I'd say the shared hosting would have greater potential. Without information on server specs, what you intend to do, page sizes, visitor numbers, databases used, scripting language applications, average server loads on shared servers i.e. a whole pile of information you don't have access to, you really can't say with any certainty. A 512MB VPS is at the low end of performance and there's a good chance the Hostgator shared servers are powerful servers, so the performance potential probably lies with the shared hosting, but shared hosting has limits (doesn't matter what it says on the tin!) so.....
Yes, that's very true. What are you going to run on your account? VPS's also have their own benefits such as root access and the ability to install and run your own software. Unless you give further details there is not we can do to suggest.
Thank you all. Most of my website running wordpress and traffic not much, but i have only one site is huge traffic and over resource usage ( running with pligg ) , not sure if i move to vps plan above it can run smoothly or not.
You need to remember that with a VPS you're also responsible for managing it and all the software that's installed. It's quite a large responsibility (to yourself) to make sure this is done correctly if reliability and security are important. If one of your sites is using too many resources and you are only considering moving to a VPS because of that reason, then it might be worth approaching your existing/potential host to ask them if they could do a high-resource-usage shared hosting plan for you. As long as your hosting company are large enough with several servers of their own, they might be willing to accomodate you. It might cost you the same as the VPS but you have the assurance that your sites will work and you get professional servers admins looking after the server and services (and that's worth a lot to you in terms of expertise and peace of mind). You might find that very large hosts are less able to accomodate you than medium sized hosts simply because the larger hosts might only want standard plans and systems on their network, but the only way to find out is to ask.
