Unmanaged Hosting
An unmanaged server describes dedicated hosting in its purest form. You lease your own hardware on a monthly or yearly basis and basically have complete control over server administration via remote access. This control allows you to run your own software applications and plan for traffic and security issues how you see fit. The major downside here is that an unmanaged dedicated hosting plan calls for a considerable amount of technical expertise and responsibility. When choosing this option, you are responsible for setting up the server, as well as installing and maintaining all the software and web services. This is the very reason why unmanaged dedicated hosting is recommended for individuals and businesses with adequate IT resources or expertise, as well as the time it takes to constantly handle the necessary administrative tasks.

Managed Hosting
Managed dedicated hosting is a solution that provides a server equipped with extended options, features and support. In this type of arrangement, the service comes armed with all the features you would expect from a dedicated server provider, which typically includes your choice of operating system, software programs, web services and complete administrative control. However, instead of leaving you to deal with all the management tasks, a managed provider generally takes on these responsibilities as well. There are many companies that allow you to pick and choose the managed services best suited for your business. Because you still have access to the server via a web-based control panel application, this type of dedicated hosting allows you to get as little or as much help with your server as needed. In addition to server management, several hosts also offer a complimenting suite of related features and services, such as application and database administration, load balancing and high availability services, among others.

Managed dedicated hosting is best suited for those who lack the time and technical expertise needed to maintain a web server. Keep in mind that this option is notably more expensive. Therefore, if you have the abilities or knowledgeable IT staff on hand, traditional unmanaged dedicated hosting would be the most practical and cost efficient option.

Shopping for dedicated server hosting providers is difficult and sometimes confusing. Knowing questions to ask the server hosting providers will help. Some features are extraneous, but others are essential and can impact the reliability and performance of your website. The priority should always be on determining the precise tools that your website needs to perform the tasks required of it. Important questions to ask web server hosting providers include:

CGI scripts: Ask prospective web server hosting providers about Common Gateway Interface (CGI) access. CGI is a script function of web server hosting, used for transferring data from HTML to an application. Most business websites need to have the ability to generate text boxes and pull down menus that allow visitors to enter requested information. You might request information from visitors so that you can process a purchase, conduct customer service activity, or register new members. Access to CGI scripts requires the permission of the system operator administrating server hosting for your site. Since it is difficult to get this permission for unknown programs, you should consider going with a server hosting provider that offers CGI packages that have been pre-approved and pre-written.

Email aliases: Mow many are included the plan? Most web server hosting companies provide a certain number of “aliases” you can use. Examples include: sales@yourdomain.com, customerservice@yourdomain.com, or support@yourdomain.com. Using a free Yahoo, Gmail or Hotmail address detracts from your professional credibility.

Space and bandwidth: Your server hosting company will assign you a certain amount of space. 2 GB is common for many business website, sufficient to hold hundreds of files and graphics and databases.

In addition, ask about speed, uptime guarantees, IP addresses and domain names. Make a detailed list of everything you want your site to do, and write a brief description of your proposed site.
