Given below are some of the differences between shared web Hosting and VPS web hosting, which set them apart from each other for their features and services offers.

All the other software application and add-on tools are specially installed for individual web hosting customers.

Private Email Server & IP Address:- Shared webhosting is cheap solution for consumers and that is why shared web hosting server is used by many customer and at the same time they all use the same email server and IP address as well. On the other Side VPS web hosting server will give a private Email server for the individual customers and a unique IP address for the VPS server as well. That is pretty much beneficial for all those business owners which requires they emails coming from unique IP address and that makes them fast to deliver and spam filter quality gets higher as well.

 
Private Custom Security Policy:- Shared Webhosting’s Major issues are always about security from hackers attack on the shared servers because thousands of domains and customers assigned that server for the use and websites, so it’s pretty difficult to provide security privately for each customer. While on the other side VPS Hosting Servers are able for customized security policy. Online business owners can assign particular commands and instruction to hosting providers that how often the server will be accessed by service personnel for maintenance and backups. VPS web hosting platform also allows and gives features like secure socket layer connections for email access, which is known as SSL. These features helps companies and website’s owners to encrypt email and password logins which help them protecting their business and servers against hackers.
