Hi this is Palak Sharma,
I am in second year of my engineering and my interest is towards making websites. Whatever website I had created, I hosted it via shared hosting, now I also heard about VPS hosting to share website through VPS hosting. I am not much about VPS hosting, can anyone suggest me what is VPS hosting and why it is used and what is better in Shared and VPS Hosting.
Looking for some positive response.
Thanks

A VPS, or virtual private server, is a form of multi-tenant cloud hosting in which virtualized server resources are made available to an end user over the internet via a cloud or hosting provider. Each VPS is installed on a physical machine, operated by the cloud or hosting provider, that runs multiple VPSs.

The main difference between shared hosting and VPS is that with shared hosting you get a package already configured and ready to use, limiting your customization options, while with VPS you're free to set it up however you like.
