[QUOTE="Ecko, post: 265352, member: 24874"] 1. Shared hosts are generally more stable than VPS/Dedicated (for example, HostGator's shared cluster servers have 32 cores, 32-64GB of RAM and SSD specifically for MySQL). Slow is 99% caused by inefficient code. Errors on your website are caused by coding 99% of the time. 2. The ToS depends on the provider. If you're only running a website, then there's no need for a VPS. 3. Depends on the error really. You're wanting to host PHP scripts, but you want to do it on a webserver that has Windows as the OS. Windows already has a huge footprint compared to the main Linux distros, so you'll encounter far more problems especially in regards to memory usage. 4. Faster speeds is a lie. All servers in one datacenter are either going to be on a 100mbps connection or a 1gbps connection. Bandwidth and storage will be less on VPS (mosts hosts offer unlimited/unmetered bandwidth and storage on shared servers). The reason to have a VPS is so you have root access. If you don't need root access, you don't need a VPS. Choosing to use Windows server over Linux because you don't know how to use SSH is just plain dumb. [/QUOTE]
