What you may want to consider when looking into VPS web hosting is whether or not your needs are matched well with this service. This is the middle ground hosting between basic shared hosting and dedicated servers and it not a large area between the two. With most VPS hosts you only get a minimal amount of web space. It is of extreme importance to know if this hosting is going to give you the right amount of storage and what about in six months? Will it still be enough?

Another thing to think about when comparing VPS hosting with a dedicated server service is how much you pay for what you get. By all means VPS hosting is less expensive.
