The Journey from Shared Hosting to Managed Hosting with Winhost

Running an e-commerce website on a shared hosting plan can be a great starting point, but as your business grows and traffic increases, you may find that the resources provided by a shared plan are not enough to handle the demands of your site. This is the point when you want to consider upgrading your hosting solution, but the transition can be daunting. If you choose to go with unmanaged VPS/Dedicated Server, not only do you have to worry about the technical aspects of setting up the server, you’re also responsible for the ongoing maintenance of the server. If you choose to go with a public cloud provider like Microsoft Azure or Amazon AWS, you’ll need to set up and manage your own server as well, but there are also concerns about unexpected bills since you’ll be charged for every aspect of the service, like resource usage, in-and-out bandwidth and even technical support.

But what if you could have the best of both worlds? What if you could get the control and flexibility of a dedicated server without the stress of setting up and managing the server yourself. What if you can get this at a set price without worrying about unpredictable monthly fees. This is precisely what Winhost’s Managed Hosting services offer.

Winhost’s Managed Hosting service is fully-managed, so we’ll set up the server and even migrate your site over. We’ll take care of all the ongoing server maintenance, server updates and security patches. And unlike the public cloud providers, you get this at a predictable flat monthly price. You can focus on running your business and not have to worry about your server or unpredictable monthly fees.

Our Managed Hosting solution includes a web server starting with typically 4CPU, 4GB of RAM, and 40GB of disk space for your data. For most sites, this allows you to store all your files, images, and databases with ease.

With our Managed Hosting service you can increase resources, such as RAM, CPU, and storage with little to no downtime. This level of control and flexibility allows your server to be customized to fit your needs. Your site will be able to handle higher traffic and efficiently process more transactions, which is key to handling growth for your business.
