Yes. A VPS is much cheaper than a dedicated server. However.

A dedicated server is just that. Dedicated to the owner or renter. Not shared with other people running on the same rack with a bunch of other users with VPS accounts as well. You have to remember. VPS is a shared system.

Since I have been using a dedicated bodhost server I have received 0 NOP errors through my external monitoring service, however with another large provider that I monitor where I have a VPS service, I receive at least 500+ NOP responses every month. (And apparently I'm guaranteed 100% up time with them... I don't bother taking up the issue with them.)

You can upgrade your VPS services as much as you want, but at the end of the day your limited to the server your sharing with other clients.

I upgrade the hardware in my dedicated server, its mine.

Price is what you make of it.

I guess i agree to it. Virtual Private Servers do share resources with other users which is not the case with dedicated servers.
