Other than having more resources, a very good reason why you could get your own hosting server and use it instead of a shared web hosting plan is the fact you'll be able to install and run a wide selection of software. With a shared account, you could use programs, that don't need root access and aren't set up server-side, so in case you require certain software for your web sites, you cannot do the installation on a shared hosting server. This isn't so with a hosting server of your own where you are able to install whatever you would like. The downside is that you may not have much experience and managing your own hosting server is more complicated that managing a shared hosting account where the service provider handles most things. That's why we offer an extra service for our server packages called Installation & Troubleshooting and you may take advantage of it any time you come across any issues with the management of your hosting server.

Installation and Troubleshooting in VPS Hosting

The upgrade can be ordered for any one of the virtual private server solutions irrespective of the OS and Control Panel you have selected or the task that you need to be executed as our administrators will assist you with anything relevant to the software on the machine. This includes, but is not limited to, installing third-party applications, setting up hosting server options, troubleshooting scripts if they do not perform adequately, etc. The upgrade features 60 minutes of work and if a specific task requires less time, the rest of the minutes shall be available for the future and shall be listed in the VPS billing Control Panel. You could use the Installation & Troubleshooting service either as a separate upgrade or as an addition to the Managed Services upgrade, which supplies half an hour of custom work on your hosting server. In this way, you'll be able to work on your sites without needing to worry that you'll not be able to use some program or losing time on technological matters.

Installation and Troubleshooting in Dedicated Web Hosting

You'll be able to add the upgrade to any of the Linux dedicated web hosting that we offer at any time that you need it. If you need any custom work from our administrators right after your server is ready, you can get the upgrade during the server signup process, or when you need something to be carried out later on, you could add the upgrade from your billing Control Panel. The Installation & Troubleshooting service features an hour of work from our admins on your machine, so if you come across any difficulties to install a third-party piece of software or some app gives errors and doesn't work the way it should, our experts will be able to assist you in a very timely manner. If a task takes less than sixty minutes, the remaining time shall be available for future tasks and you'll be able to see it within the billing area. This upgrade is ideal if you do not have much experience with managing a server or if you use our Managed Services upgrade, but you deplete the 30 minutes custom work it provides.
