Equal Design are WordPress Consultants, Web Design & Computer Services in Leyland, Lancashire, Preston

After a while on a reseller account that has served us well, we have decided to make the move to a Virtual Private Server rather than a shared server.  This should help customers in making a more reliable, robust and customisable experience.

So what is a VPS?  As I have mentioned a VPS is a ‘Virtual Private Server’.  The difference between this and a shared hosting solution is that we can make custom changes to each of the servers that we have in order to optimise their performance for certain tasks.  In the past these changes would have been reflected on the rest of the domains on that server, including those hosted by other individuals and clients.

So what does it mean for Equal Design customers and potential customers?  First of all if you domain name and hosting are managed by Equal Design you will not have to do anything for the change to take place.  Everything should be changed for you, but as a fronted user to your website and email you will notice little difference.  For those that manage their own domain names a change in name-servers will allow your site to continue working and you will already have been contacted.

The VPS should allow Equal Design to develop into the future and provide a better service for both Equal Design’s needs and our customers.
