Shared Hosting

Shared hosting places several websites on the same server infrastructure, with customers sharing resources managed by a hosting provider. It usually offers a lower-cost way to keep a small business site online without maintaining a dedicated server. A cleaning company with a modest brochure site may find it sufficient, provided the plan supports its content management system, traffic, backups, and security requirements. Performance can vary when shared resources are constrained, and an inexpensive introductory price may change at renewal. Shared hosting describes how server resources are allocated; it does not describe who owns the domain or whether the site is well designed.
