What is a Semi-Dedicated Server?
Semi-Dedicated Servers from GlowHost.com can be considered as a good transition before having your own dedicated server. These are made for web site operators that prefer to have the fewest sites per server competing for the same resources. Each Semi-Dedicated Server "Slice" is a 1/30th share of a fully managed dedicated server. This means that there will never be more than 30 Slices on a server. Assuming each site had only a single slice assigned to it, there would be 30 sites on the server. There can be much less than this depending on how many Slices have been purchased by a single customer. For example, if every site on the server has two Slices assigned to it, there would only be 15 sites hosted on that machine. We guarantee a MAXIMUM of 30 sites or less on every Semi-Dedicated Server and each slice comes with shell access (SSH).

STOP! If you are considering a Semi Dedicated hosting plan anywhere besides GlowHost, make sure to ask your potential new host if they can give you AN EXACT NUMBER of sites that will be on the server. Chances are, they cannot answer the question, do not know the answer, or will "skate around" the question.
We do not offer "Unlimited" domain hosting on our Semi-Dedicated Hosting packages plans like other providers that claim to offer "Semi-Dedicated" services....
Our thinking is that "Unlimited" and "Semi-Dedicated" do not belong together. There is no way to truly regulate the number of sites on a server if you allow your users to pile an unlimited number of sites on their individual accounts. We believe that if you are paying for a Semi-Dedicated server...You should be ensured that your Semi-Dedicated Server is truly "Semi-Dedicated" and is being properly limited to ensure that you have access to the resources you need. This is why Semi-Dedicated solutions from GlowHost.com are better than anything else you will find on the market today.  |
