<\/span><\/h3>\r\nDedicated servers are not for everyone. Those of you who have huge websites that are continually growing and already attract thousands of visitors daily should consider a dedicated server. I’m assuming that with user amounts in this range that you can afford it.<\/span> Managed dedicated servers are the ultimate hosting experience. Here, you get the whole server for yourself, without any neighbors. Not only that it means your site gets all the power the server has, but it also means maximal speed and safety.<\/span><\/p>\r\nWith other hosting types where you share resources. If any other site on the server gets infected, there is a chance for the malware to spread to its roommates. The same goes with traffic and resources -more sites will usually mean slower connections.<\/span> Every Liquid Web dedicated server is fully-managed. They have has ServerSecure Advanced Security, multi-level DDoS protection, CDN, business-grade SSD storage and Backup Drive. Also, you will get full root access, a dedicated IP, and Liquid Web’s famous 100% network and power uptime guarantee.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<\/span>Dedicated Plans:<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\r\nDepending on the server location you choose, plans differ. I will focus on their US central servers, located in Michigan:<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n- Intel Xeon 1230 v6 – $199\/mo – 4 cores, 3.9 GHz, 16 GB RAM, 2×240 GB SSD, 1TB backup, 5 TB bandwidth.<\/span><\/li>\r\n
- Intel Xeon Silver 4108 – $299\/mo – 8 cores, 3.0 GHz, 32 GB RAM, 2x 480 SSD, 2TB backup, 8 TB bandwidth.<\/span><\/li>\r\n
- Intel Xeon Gold 6130 – 16 cores, 3.7 GHz, 32 GB RAM, 2x 480 SSD, 2 TB backup, 8 TB bandwidth.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n
There are options to choose dual CPU servers, as well as to bundle up your package with add-ons. These add-ons include cPanel\/Plesk, Guardian Backups, and Server protection with Malware Remediation. Of course, this will cost you more, on top of the prices from above.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<\/span>Liquid Web Virtual Private Servers<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\r\nVirtual Private Servers are the most flexible hosting solution. These servers “virtualize” a dedicated server, on a shared server. This means that your server gets its own resources, that are guaranteed only for you. So if another site has a traffic spike, it will never take over your hardware, slowing down the connection.<\/span> VPS basically gives you most of the power a dedicated server has, but at a much cheaper price. Therefore, servers of this type are an excellent value for money. VPS is also very flexible, and you can scale up your hardware in just a few clicks. <\/span><\/p>\r\nThat means your site will always have the right amount of resources. It also means you can start small, saving on server costs until your site grows.<\/span> Liquid Web VPS is cloud-based, which guarantees ultimate stability. Instead of being located on a single location, copies of your site are stored on many different cloud servers. This not only guarantees uptime but also speed. The end user will see the version of the site that is geographically closest to them. Cloud technology is the future, and more and more companies are switching to this type of hosting.<\/span> All cloud plans have some other key features. They come with CloudFlare CDN, advanced security measures, built-in backups, and DDoS protection.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
