Frequently asked questions
-
When should I move to VPS hosting?
If you’re outgrowing your shared web hosting or simply want more control, a managed or fully managed Virtual Private Server (VPS) is the next logical choice for your hosting needs. It gives you more freedom with root access to Apache and PHP, plus you can install an SSL certificate, as well as any type of software – all without the responsibility of a dedicated server.
On a shared server, you rely on the performance of the platform provided. By choosing VPS, you get to select a configuration best suited for your applications, requirements and growth.
-
What is VPS hosting used for?
A Virtual Private Server allows you to host sites (storefront, e-commerce, content, media) and software applications (primarily web: portal, extranet, collaborative solutions, wiki, CRM) with ease.
Unlike shared hosting, VPS hosting makes it possible to isolate multiple applications from one another within the same container. While this VPS container shares physical resources (infrastructure) with other containers, its resources are dedicated to you.

How do I upgrade my VPS?
You can upgrade your VPS at any time, directly from your control panel. Your entire system (OS, software, settings) is saved; you don't need to make any changes. Once you select a plan, the upgrade happens automatically within minutes. -
Who can use VPS hosting?
Anybody with some technical skills, especially if you opt for managed VPS. Required admin skills include access, file transfer and configuration. We continue to develop more tools and features that will make it even easier to manage your server environment. -
How do I migrate my web hosting contents to a VPS?
If you’re a current GoDaddy cPanel shared hosting customer, you can select one-click migration to VPS hosting to import your sites, then simply re-direct DNS (managed or fully managed plans only). We also provide a paid migration service. Otherwise, it's up to you to migrate your data and applications onto the VPS and reconfigure the DNS.
