Shared Hosting
Here you share the server space with other website owners. Physical Hardware and the Software applications installed on the server are also shared. These services are affordable because the cost to operate the server is shared between you and these other owners. Although the speed might be a bit low and there is a lot of dependency on the service provider to resolve issues and manage the servers efficiently

Dedicated Hosting 
Here you have the entire web server to yourself. This helps you to get faster performance.You don't have to share the resources with anyone. This also means that you are responsible for managing the activities on the server. This is a good choice for websites that requires a lot of system resources, or need a higher level of security.

Collocated Hosting
 
In this type of hosting, you will purchase your own server and have it housed at a web host’s facilities. You will be responsible for the server itself. An advantage of this type of hosting service is you have full control of the web server. You can install any scripts or applications you need.
Be it any type of hosting one can ensure that with the right plan which is well thought out and that suits your business needs, a owner can create the right kind of impact in the market. A good set of parameters followed during web development coupled with the right hosting plan can really help to create the right kind of market presence. Choose the wrong option and you will end up spending more that you actually require. So choose the right plan and take the right step ahead in the modern business movement.
