So, I'm sure you've been wondering why you should go for a VPS instead of a regular shared hosting accout for your website or even a dedicated server, here are 5 of the reasons why you should go for a VPS:

Performance
A Virtual private server can provide considerably higher performance than a regular shared hosting account without the limitations imposed by the shared hosting provider, one has to understand that a shared hosting server has multiple sites to support, so the resources have to be limited per website so that the rest of the sites can still run, in a VPS you can have all the resources for your website, if you get 1GB of RAM, then that's 1GB of RAM for your site and nobody else's site, this reduces the lag or limitation of resources during peak traffic hours.

Scalability
If your website needs 1GB of RAM to run smoothly with the amount of visitors you have right now, but say in a month or two you need to increase the memory or even the CPU resources, this is very easily achieved with a VPS, it gives you the scalability you need to grow your online business without restrictions.

Pricing
You can always go straight for a dedicated server (bare metal), but that just means that your budget will need to be increased considerably, if you plan on starting small and expect to grow, then you should consider going for a VPS, which will be only a fraction of the cost of a dedicated server and gives you the ability to grow as you go while still having full control over your resources and you can still run any OS like Windows, Linux, etc.

Security
Being on a shared hosting server means that whatever security hole the server has will affect you and there is nothing you can do about it as you do not have root access or admin access to fix whatever security issue there may be, imagine the harm this would do to your online business; having a VPS means that since you are the only one controlling your own space, you can keep your server secure and this ensures that your online business or project will remain secure by keeping security patches up to date, etc, since you get full root/admin access, you can run your own upgrades or rely on our support team to do it for you (with a managed plan) and be sure that nothing your neighbor on a shared hosting server uploads will affect you or degrade the performance of your site.

Resources (full control)
Having your own VPS means that you can decide what resources you'll allocate to your website(s), you can certainly run as many websites as you desire and you can control and prioritize the resources; there are plenty of tools out there that help you administer your server easily, and of course, using a VPS is a great opportunity to learn your way around a server, as in terms of software it's just like having a physical server under your desk.
