Hi Dana. I plan for the dedicated server in future. But for now, the shared is quite OK for my needs.
Yeah, you should move to dedicated server after have huge traffic. It is mean for it.
hi Dana, my blog suddenly often suspended by the web hoster.. ach how can I increase traffic to my blog if like that !
is there any recommended web hosting in Indonesia ?
I will suggest masterweb for indonesia web hosting provider. But, yeah — saksham is right that hostgator is great.
@ Atics Once I too faced the same problem! I don’t know about Indonesia but you can use other hosts like WebHostGiant, HostGator, Etc.
They work good for all the countries!
Great ! Currently I am sticked to bloggers free hosting.But surely I will buy dedicated server hosting in future.
You should consider the shared hosting first, but — yeah — of course you can directly jump to dedicated hosting if needed.
Currently I am using shared hosting. Hope I get enough traffic to move to dedicated hosting.
In other hand, move to dedicated hosting mean that your site is really great.

In some cases, dedicated hosting can cost more than 10x the amount of shared.
For 99% of bloggers, shared is the way to go and if they somehow get into the echelon of needing more, worry about the switch later. It’ll be a good problem to have.
Yes, you are right Gabe. Dedicated hosting only feasible if we have really huge traffic.
Only use dedicated server if your blog is great like johnchow’s blog, darren’s blog or FACEBOOK. The only thing we should consider went we have huge traffic is bandwidth. So I guess, using shared hosting from hostgator(unlimited bandwidth) is good enough. Plus, dedicated cost you a lot per month.
Yup, dedicated hosting only for site that have crazy traffic or have many application that consume server processor.
very nice info..!..really very helpful..!..I had many confusions which this post cleared out..!!..thanks..!
you’re welcome.
Dedicated server sounds great, but like others are saying, it’s good for a site with high traffic. Maybe someday
Yeap, it is for huge traffic site.
why not just settle for a reseller or a vpn? I mean dedicated hosting is too expensive especially if youre not yet making big money. Reseller is the best bang for a buck I think
I think you mean vps. In my opinion, reseller and VPS is still shared server hosting. Yeah — one hosting server (hardware) still use by multiple users in reseller and VPS.
I would say VPS is good choice, low price and good as dedicated server.
Yup, VPS is good choice but it is still a shared server hosting.
for a beginner a shared host is more than enough… but there are some hosting services which even the VPS is not enough! so better choose it wisely! thanks for the info bro!
Yup, there are some situations which only can solve by having dedicated server host.
Me on dedicated server.
Your site must be a great site.
Usually for new blogs and less trafficked blogs shared web hosting is the best option and i recommend host gator or host monster
Yup, you are right.
Dedicated servers are the best when you want a stable webhost. :-*
yes, agree with you. If you can afford it, It is suggested to use dedicated servers.
