Ten Indicators that Tell You it is Time to Move Your Site to a Dedicated Server

by anutt

If you have a high traffic website with dynamic features, then
switching to a dedicated server is probably the best choice for
you. The major advantages are faster load time, increased
security, and total control over your website.

This dedicated server is a single web server, devoted solely to
the use of one organization, unlike shared servers that host a
number of other users and websites. Particularly suitable for
larger corporations that process and store high quantities of
secure data, dedicated servers often require a higher capital
investment yet have a number of key advantages:

1. Higher speed and performance levels 
By switching to a dedicated server, the entire host is devoted
to running one organization's software and website. With a shared
server, the actions and usage of other websites can impact upon
the response times of a website and can even cause a time-out,
especially if one website has a promotion and experiences a
sudden surge in traffic.

2. Increased capacity
Because a dedicated server is created for just one organization,
capacity is only limited by the size of the server rather than
the number of users present on that host. Dedicated servers
provide a more reliable website which can run full-time with less
server jamming. Websites can feature more complex functions and
there are fewer limitations on the number of email accounts and
attached databases.

3. Increased security
By sharing the server with other sites and users, there is a
possibility that other customers may be able to view secure files
and in some cases overwrite certain files. This can be extremely
risky if a company stores and processes highly sensitive data. If
any website on the host is attacked by a hacker or virus, this
also makes the rest of the sites on the server vulnerable.

4. Increased site control 
With complete server dedication, it is possible to have more
control over data access and over what happens on that server,
such as which scripts can be run and which online activities can
occur.

5. Ability to customise hardware set-up
Dedicated hardware is provided for the server which can only be
used by one customer. This allows the customer to have control
over the hardware and make any alterations or upgrades.

6. Customised software
Many shared sites have limited features and software
availability due to security and stability issues. For example,
JSP support on shared servers is still rare. With a dedicated
server, there is greater freedom of choice as to which programmes
run, allowing a customer's individual needs to be catered for.

7. Creation of more than one domain
Companies that have multiple divisions or chains benefit greatly
from a dedicated server in that they can create several domains
on one server. This is more cost effective and efficient than
each outlet renting space on a different host and creates a
uniform sales platform with a simplified administration and
support system.

8. Increased reliability
It only requires one rogue website in a shared server to cause a
search engine to ban the entire server, due to the shared IP
address. With a dedicated server, reliability is no longer
compromised by other customers' poorly written scripts or
security problems.

9. Effective large website maintenance
A dedicated server provides the ability to run a large website,
which can be remotely controlled and operated, without the need
to employ large numbers of staff. There is no requirement to
purchase or maintain server equipment and server upgrades are
more cost effective.

10. Technical support
Many dedicated server providers offer additional administrative,
trouble-shooting and management support.

If your website does not have any of these qualities, then you
know that it is time to move your site to a dedicated server.
You've put a lot of work into your website, so you deserve to
have the best service possible.
