Managed hosting sprang up as an additional option for companies with a strong enough online presence to require a dedicated server. With managed hosting, most of the server administration is handled by the web host rather than the company that owns the dedicated server. The service has been described as “a glorified dedicated server armed with extended features and support.” As with a dedicated server, you get your choice of operating system, routing equipment, network connectivity and complete administrative control. But a web host that offers the option of managed hosting also takes care of much more than that for its customers.

Managed Dedicated Hosting is the most popular type of hosting among medium to large companies and other organizations. Having a managed and dedicated hosting service suits large organizations because it offers the most disk space and the largest amount of data transfer. Most of the providers offer at least 500 Gigs of data transfer a month.


Managed Dedicated Hosting simply means you have the whole server to yourself. There is no one else on the server but your company. The great thing is that your company doesn’t have to carry out the maintenance on the server. Your web host provider will take care of the technical side of things for you. And your company doesn’t own the server. It merely has the sole right to use it. It’s like leasing a car: you use it but you don’t own it.


The company that owns the server will normally manage it on the lessee’s behalf. This is known as a Managed Hosting Service. This service is usually used by companies and other organizations that have websites that receive large amounts of traffic or websites that have huge databases, which operate more reliably and efficiently on dedicated servers of their own.


Prices for this service usually start around $99 a month with a range of optional add-ons. It depends entirely on the firm’s particular requirements. The prices for Managed Dedicated Hosting are quite a lot higher than the price of a shared hosting plan. The difference is that you have a whole server dedicated to your enterprise, and that ensures more up time. That alone gives you peace of mind – knowing you are less likely problems with your server because your organization is the only one using it.

Semi-dedicated servers are servers shared by a small number of non-related customers. All of them have higher than normal usage patterns, which disqualifies them for regular shared hosting but does not justify Managed Dedicated Hosting. Rates for this type of hosting start around $60/month.

When I first heard about managed hosting, I thought it was more or less the same thing as dedicated hosting. In both forms of hosting, you have a server with your web host that is completely dedicated to your web site. Keep reading to find out why that’s almost the only thing they have in common.

Dedicated hosting has long been an option for companies whose web presence is such that they can’t put their web site on a shared hosting plan without someone taking a big hit. Maybe their web site is really huge, with lots of interactive elements; or perhaps they get a lot of traffic, especially ecommerce. There might be any number of reasons a company needs a dedicated server.

While a dedicated server can provide a growing company with the space, bandwidth, and reliability it needs, there is a potential downside (other than cost). With most dedicated hosting plans, the server is effectively yours – which means you handle most of the server administration tasks. For those who are technically knowledgeable (or willing and able to become so), this might not seem like a large hurdle. But the fact of the matter is that the skills required to create and run a successful online business are not the same as those required to be a decent server administrator.
