Web Hosting & Shared Hosting FAQs

What is Shared Web Hosting?
Shared Hosting is a popular hosting option because it offers an affordable way to get your website online. With Shared Hosting, multiple users share space on a single server managed by the hosting provider, RunHost. A Shared Hosting package can come with various features and combinations as provided by RunHost. This type of hosting is ideal for blogging, hobbies, and small business websites.
What Are the Benefits of Shared Hosting?
When you sign up for a Shared Hosting package, you’ll love the affordable price. Plus, our shared hosting platform is fully managed, so you don’t have to stress about server management and updates. With a RunHost Shared Hosting package, you also get an SSL certificate, a domain name, and more!
What is the difference between Shared vs WordPress Hosting?
Anyone with a website needs hosting to get it online. Shared Hosting is a budget-friendly option perfect for new users and works great with WordPress. When you choose RunHost, your website will come with WordPress pre-installed and ready to go. Our Shared WordPress Hosting includes seamless integration with all WordPress features, including automatic updates and installation.
What is the difference between Shared vs VPS Hosting?
With a Shared Hosting package from RunHost, you’ll be sharing a web server with other users, so specific resources like RAM and CPU aren’t guaranteed for your site. If you need more space and bandwidth to handle higher traffic, Virtual Private Server (VPS) Hosting is a great option. VPS Hosting lets you easily scale up your website as it grows and gives you much more control over your server settings, so you can customize your configuration to fit your needs.
