When running your website, choosing the right hosting type is crucial for its performance and accessibility. Shared hosting is a popular option for many website owners, especially those who are just starting out.
Shared hosting refers to the practice of multiple websites sharing the same server. This means that resources such as disk space, CPU time and RAM are shared.
Each website owner usually has a separate account with their own directory to store files, but they use the same server and share its resources.
As a customer of shared hosting you can concentrate on your web project, we take care of the server, updates, security with SSL certificates and firewalls.
The hosting is managed in a very simple and clear way via the user-friendly peaknetworks control panel. Domains are assigned to different directories in the hosting, the free Let's Encrypt SSL certificates can be activated and deactivated, databases and FTP users can be managed and e-mails with mailboxes and forwards can be administered.

The shared hosting at peaknetworks is cheap and still fast. We take care of the updates of the servers, the 7 x 24 operation, the renewal of the SSL certificates and also the domain that is linked to the shared hosting. We create complete backups daily and keep them for 7 days. In case something is deleted unintentionally, we restore it quickly and easily. If things get stuck, we help with tips and tricks!
Shared hosting and VPS (Virtual Private Server) are two common options for hosting websites. Both offer advantages and differences, depending on the user's needs and requirements.
Shared hosting is a cost-effective hosting option that is well-suited for small to medium-sized websites that do not generate a lot of traffic and do not require large resources. As the name suggests, several websites share a single server, which spreads the cost of the server and its maintenance and upgrades among several users.
On the other hand, VPS offers more control and flexibility than shared hosting. A VPS is a virtualized server. This means that the user has more control over the server and can make adjustments. VPS offers higher performance and reliability because resources are not shared with other users.
When user numbers increase, a VPS or Virtual Private Server can be the right solution. In this case, the customer gets his own virtual server on which only his websites run. This VPS is then installed specifically for the customer according to his wishes.
At peaknetworks, a VPS is always leased together with a Service Level Agreement or "SLA", which includes the maintenance of the server.
However, compared to shared hosting, VPS is usually more expensive and requires technical knowledge to manage the server. VPS is ideal for larger websites that need more resources and higher performance. VPS is also well suited for developers and companies that need full control over the server and want to make adjustments to operating systems and server applications.
In summary, shared hosting is ideal for small to medium-sized websites that don't require large resources and have a limited budget. VPS, on the other hand, is suitable for larger websites that need more resources and control.
