Hello friends,

What is the purpose of Shared hosting?

[aaronbrad]

In a customer point of view, when you have to host a simple website and not needed all the features of a server you can choose shared hosting. No need to worry about the server administration tasks. Comes with lower price. But shared hosting is limited in some features. You can only have what your provider allows.

While choosing a provider you will need to make sure that their shared subscription have all the features your site needed.

It may seem a bit irresistible to search and compare different webhosting packages - the hosting market is so competitive.
I can also say that Stratus4.com (http://Stratus4.com/) as well as QHoster.com (http://QHoster.com/) will definitely suit all your demands in terms of getting shared hosting accounts at good rates.

The purpose is clients to share resources on one physical server. Every client has some of the resource. It's just for optimizing purposes but on the other side is performance limited.

It’s because not everyone who wants to host a website will be having the budget to buy a dedicated server. Rather they do not have a use for it to host a simple static web page. Shared hosting is the cost effective option for those who want to deploy their web presence without paying a lot.
