A VDS (Virtual Dedicated Server) gives you dedicated resources (CPU, RAM) in a virtualized environment—perfect for more control without physical servers. Check out MangoHost’s VDS . Their plans include full root access, scalable storage, and 24/7 support. Unlike shared hosting, you avoid ‘noisy neighbor’ slowdowns. I host multiple client sites on their mid-tier VDS, and the performance is rock-solid. Start with their cheapest tier and upgrade as needed—no downtime during scaling!
