When you have a shared Internet hosting account, the hosting provider takes care of maintenances, updates and backups, but this is not the situation with virtual and dedicated servers. If you need a separate machine because a shared plan doesn't have enough resources to support your web applications or you simply require particular custom software to be running on the web server and it's not present within the shared one, you may not have much choice about what type of Internet hosting you can use. While this won't be a problem when you have practical experience, you may come across issues if you haven't had a web server of your own. That is the main reason why we offer a Managed Services upgrade that you'll be able to add to your web server package anytime. It provides a variety of things like weekly backups, OS updates and installation of third-party applications, so you won't have to spend time and efforts on this sort of matters.
