If you’re confused about getting the right VPS host, here are some detailed tips which may lead you and help you finding the right VPS Hosting Company.


Platform: Platforms are important, If you are not profound in Linux and don't want more expensive managed server, you might decide to find Windows VPS, although we strongly encourage Cpanel for Linux platform, as it is cheaper, more able to customize to your needs, with better community support at the Internet, etc

Customer server: Many will tell you that good Customer server is extremely important. That’s absolutely true from a personal point of view! The best vps hosting providers are committed to their customers and offer professional customer service and technical support features to help you get the most out of your chosen plan. This may include 24/7 customer service availability, strong security plans

Reasonable pricing: Make sure that the prices offered by the Hosting company are very reasonable and it’s sometimes better to choose expensive ones but make sure that there are no extra fees.

Security: Security is the most important criteria for choosing a VPS Hosting.As I said earlier, dedicated server is divided into a number a virtual private servers, each of which runs independently from the other and uses very private information that’s why it’s recommended that the hosting company is protected by a Firewall to avoid all intrusions and hacking attacks. Make sure that the hosting company provide you with an individual IP address and a personal password.

Control Panel : Control Panel allows users to view and manipulate basic system settings and controls.

The best VPS hosting plans use eminent virtualization technology and VPS hosting control panel software to ensure efficient allocation of hardware resources. Search for a host company that gives you a variety of Cpanel that suit your specific needs does not restrict your choice and.Three leading VPS hosting control panels are SolusVM, Power Prov and Webmin.
All these features are important and extremely recommended to best reach your goals, however some of them are costly especially when the Host company offer extra fees.

Many businessmen and women ask themselves how to get the best server that will fit all of their business needs. Here are some tips on choosing the right hosting provider.

Security. Physically dedicated servers are divided into Virtual Private Servers that are sold separately. This assures that all of the servers run independently of each other and in no way can anyone else access the information on your server or the sensitive data that may be kept there.
Stability. One of the most important criteria for a choosing a hosting provider is stability of their servers.
Customization. The ability to customize your server however you want. One of the most important aspects of owning a server is being able to do what you want to it. The ability to run software with which you feel comfortable and the OS that you most prefer.
Price. Finding affordable VPS hosting solution is one of the most important criteria. Since VPS a number of clients share a single dedicated server, the cost is chased as well.

Good you shared this valuable information with us.

You forgot to mention Reliability though. A service provider should be one you can trust. It should not be such that you find it gone in a matter of months, as it is the case with many new providers these days.

There are few more I would like to add....

unique features of the service

Like shared and dedicated hosting, VPS hosting plans also have some unique features. However, there are some important features that you should essentially look out for.

RAM capacity

The efficiency of the hosting plan primarily depends upon the RAM capacity. To run the operating system, control panel and various applications, you would need at least 512 MB of memory. If you intend to host more than one website, then opt for 1 GB RAM. If the traffic to your sites tends to increase erratically, then choose a plan with burstable RAM. It is basically a pool of memory that is exclusively provided to you for dealing with emergencies like high traffic inflow.

CPU power

The processing capacity of the CPU should be high so that it is able to perform computations speedily.

Once you decide to buy VPS hosting for your website, there are quite a few things that you should to be conscious about.

The price of the VPS hosting package is not always a sign of a VPS hosting service provider. However it could sometimes be dependent on the level of customer support to kind of control panel you get with the server. Nonetheless, I have always believed the level of customer support and Flexibility as two of the most significant factors when searching for a reputed VPS hosting service provider.


Level of Customer Service
As already mentioned above, customer service is one of the most significant factors on finding an excellent VPS hosting service provider. Your online business or website will do any good if you fail to choose a VPS provider that offers a high-quality customer support service. Therefore, make certain that your VPS provider offers around the clock (24/7) customer support.

Flexibility
Flexibility can actually be seen as the second key factor when selecting a reputed VPS service provider. Although this may not come across as a “very important” factor at the start, once your little website starts getting bigger and gets more visitors, you must have the capability of upgrading the existing VPS plan by adding more resources to it.

Physical Security
This is also very important. Your servers must be as far away as possible from places that have a tendency of being affected by natural catastrophes (far away from the seismic zones). If something bad happens to your server, you could lose all your valuable data.

Well Formed TOS (Terms of Service)
Always try to stay away from the companies that have misleading or obscure terms of service. Make certain to read the “Terms and Conditions” page from top to bottom, and that you understand it very well. If there is something in it that you don’t understand, directly contact customer support service of the provider and clarify it before you buy VPS hosting from them.

Company Reputation
Going through the customer tutorial and support forums is a great way to check the reputation of a VPS hosting provider.

Cost
Of course your budget also becomes a factor when choosing a VPS hosting package. If a package is too pricey, you should keep looking as you will most probably be able to find cheaper alternatives.

Make sure that the service provider operates their own data center, has multiple ISPs, a fault-tolerant power system and staff on sight 24/7 to help you at anytime. We also always recommend to have your data backed up, keeping your content and data save and secure is of the highest importance.

People these days are not much fond of shared hosting, as it has many limitations. We always suggest that it is best to have a dedicated hosting server. Simultaneously it is known to all that a dedicated server is too much expensive and not many people can afford it. This is one of the reasons why people are opting towards having the hosting service from the best web hosting sites in India Company.

Top Tips for VPS Hosting:
*Quality of Hardware used
It is always good to check the quality of the processors and hard disks since the hardware will be more heavily used then in a normal dedicated hosted environment as their will be 10′s of instances concurrently running.

*Reliability and Uptime
You should look for hosting provider that provides more than 99.9% uptime especially if you are running a Windows VPS platform where the chance of downtime is increased.

*Quality of bandwidth
There is no point in having excellent hardware and reliable uptime if your datacentre or hosting provider’s connections are down. Look for multi tier 1 BGP routed bandwidth to reduce the risk of any one ISP connections being down.

*Service and Support
Sooner or later you’ll need the help and support of your hosting provider, make sure that the staff are knowledgeable and helpful. Like all insurance policies this is something you may never need but if and when you do, it is best to make sure that it is the best you can find.


*Availability of Burstable RAM
If you are running a Linux VPS, this may prove to be a life saver as Burstable RAM is a temporary fix that kicks in in emergencies when you have a spike in traffic to your site, for example if someone has dugg, or stumbleuponed your site. Although this is great news in that it will bring more patronage to your site, it can also overload and possibly crash your site. If your Linux VPS has burstable RAM until you increase your dedicated RAM or your traffic eases back.

It is important to check the reputation of the web hosting company you are signing up with. The web hosting company must have the infrastructure to provide a strong technical support so that if there are any issues with your website, they can be taken care of in a short span of time and possibilities of downtime can be avoided. Also, select a web hosting company that is updated with the latest technology.

The main thing you have to look in a VPS service the price. Whether the plan is affordable for you. If it's affordable then check for customer reviews about the particular plans. If the customer reviews are positive, then checking whether their technical support is available round the clock. These are some chief things you have to look for in a provider. You can also prefer provider which is in the same country as your business.

Nice sharing.. just want add some additional info. I think OS of your VPS Hosting server also important.

Windows and Linux are the two mainstream server OS that a large portion of the sellers offer. Linux is an open source programming and subsequently costs not as much as Windows. Linux based facilitating is likewise easy to use and backings a more extensive scope of utilizations. This makes it a decent (and presumably better) decision in a large portion of the cases. In any case, there are still a few applications that are not bolstered by Linux or are better upheld by Windows. In this way, on the off chance that you mean to introduce or utilize any of these, for example, ASP, ASP.NET, and so forth., you should run with Windows based VPS.

Here are some key factors you should consider:

Cost: Before you choose a VPS hosting provider, consider how much they’re charging you and for what. Hosting costs are usually charged ongoingly, so it’s important to know where your money is going. Usually, you’re charged for the amount of space, bandwidth, speed, backup & security and other benefits your hosting provider may give you.

Reviews: This is a great way to look into existing feedback VPS providers are getting from customers. Go through online reviews and even call the hosting provider with any questions you may have for them. This is the best way to check which one is actually responsive, transparent and patient with their customers.

Reliability: Just like all servers, VPS can have downtime too. You should look out for a VPS which offers you maximum reliability through minimal downtime. One way to check this is online reviews, and the other is to test the VPS by signing up for a dummy website. This is a great way to ‘test-drive’ your VPS hosting service and determine whether it would be a good fit for your ‘real website’.

Services, Resources & Capabilities: Inevitably, you should ask your VPS provider about all of the benefits, features, resources and capabilities they can offer you. Look for their ‘add-on’ features too, to figure out additional services you could buy through them for a comprehensive hosting experience. You need to feel like your VPS provider is a ‘partner’, and not just a vendor, as you’ll be heavily dependent on them for your site’s reliability. Make sure they’re interested in your growth for the long term!

A VPS is basically a server running within a server. One physical server hosts multiple virtual servers, each isolated from the others. This is accomplished with software, called a hypervisor, that segments the physical server and keeps each segment separate from the rest.

Yeah.. Great Information about the VPS Host...This is the best way to look into existing feedback VPS providers are getting from clients. VPS (Virtual Private Server) is a ‘private space’, where you can host your website (Blog) and all of the Contents, Images to attract the users.

Thing To Consider Before Choosing VPS Hosting (https://www.ewebguru.com/vps.php)
1. Be Sure On Picking Self – Fully Managed VPS Hosting
When it comes to VPS hosting solution, the million-dollar question would be what to choose whether fully or self-managed VPS? To be frank, if you are a nutshell techie person you can go for self-managed VPS because it offers more flexibility and freedom since you have full control of your VPS. On the other hand, less tech-savvy people can opt for fully managed VPS as it hosts will take care of your server-oriented issue.
2. Go For Robust specs
If you are really planning to have a future proof business then consider opting for the web hosting providers who offer robust specs. Here Specs deal with the server resources like RAM, Server Hardware (CPU), Server Storage, Server Network and so. In addition, make sure your host provider provides a guarantee on non-power failure, which is ideal for every reliable web hosting.
3. Make Sure on Getting Root Access
For webmasters, gaining root access is essential in order to implement various advanced scripts, SSH, and other command control in order to ensure site functioning at best. Without full root access, the webmaster would be restricted at any time from installing needed software in the server. In addition, root access allows webmasters to add extra domains, sites, database and so upon the site’s requirements.
4. Prefer 24/7 Support
To have a reliable and future proof web hosting solution, having support for 24/7 from the hosting provider is inevitable. To be frank, almost every reliable host provider now offering dedicated IT support for 24/7. Having such full IT support on-demand will help the webmaster to sort out the emergency issues.
5. Be Wise on Server Scalability & Server Location
Think future and opt host provider who offers scalability on server resources, because once your site starts to perform better you will be in need to utilizing more server resources in order to ensure proper functions of your site. At the same, you need to consider about server location of the web-host because digital regulations differ from state to state. Prefer US-based web host as it almost has open-door –policy for online data.
6. Choose Reliable & Trustworthy Hosting
Well, finally make sure you are engaging with a reliable and trustworthy host provider. It is always better to look back the record of accomplishment of the host before opting for their web hosting services.
Based on the review and high reputation factor, the India based web hosting solution provider eWebGuru stands to be one of the most reliable and trustworthy host. In addition, they offer all the above-mentioned essential factors to their clients and ensure their site's performance along with future proof.

It is good idea to go with the server provider that provides additional security against the hackers and keep your website safe from the viruses and malwares.

Customization: It refers to the ability of the customization for your server to choose the hardware configurations like CPU usage, storage, RAM and bandwidth the way you want. It also offers the freedom to choose the operating system according to your choice and requirement of your software installed. Try to get up with the hosting company that does not deal only with the fixed plans and open to bespoke requirement so to give your website a room to grow in future.

Price: Price is the important factor why people opt for the dedicated virtual server. However make sure that you have been charged correctly for the hosting facility.

VPS Hosting are low cost yet effective web hosting solution for most of the business as well as personal websites these days. If your website is experiencing increasing traffic pool and you want to migrate for something better than shared hosting than VPS hosting in UK (https://www.serverwala.org/vps-hosting-uk) is right choice for you. It cost little more than what actually you are paying for your shared server and gives you quality of service similar to the dedicated servers. In reality virtual servers are created from the single dedicated servers where each of the website owners is assigned with dedicated and isolated portion of RAM, CPU usage, storage and bandwidth.

If you are looking for a VPS provider or a web host that specialises in VPS, you should ask these questions-

1. Where are the servers of the provider located? How broad is their network? If it is global then choose them provided there are data centers in your country/region/terriroty. This will resolve your speed/uptime issue.

2. What do they do to ensure that your hosting remains secure? SSL? DDoS? If yes then it is a sureshot go ahead. Also, what is their backup plan for recovery? Do they have one? If not, then they arent really worth your time.

3. How can you scale the VPS plan and what is the pricing of this plan? If it is too cheap, it is a trap so see if it is a god renowned and trusted brand that is used by people. for. E.g. HostGator India is one that I have used because it is a great brand especially for VPS hosting.

4. What kind of a support team do they have? Because when you have questions or queries, someone needs to respond and if you don't get a response and your query solved in the stipulated time it results in bad customer experience. So. please choose wisely by taking some feedback/review from the industry.

-hope this helps :)
