A separate server environment for workloads that need their own operating-system-level configuration.
Server-level control for custom workloads.
VPS Hosting is for developers and applications that need a private virtual machine, broader software control, and an environment that is intentionally different from managed shared hosting.
Use a VPS when the server itself is part of the requirement.
A VPS should not be sold as a mysterious upgrade from shared hosting. It is a separate product for customers who need operating-system and software-stack control.
Install and manage software that does not belong in a restricted shared-hosting environment.
Designed for technical customers who need more than website-level SSH and Git workflows.
A fit for services, APIs, workers, and applications with server requirements outside normal web hosting.
A private server resource model rather than the autoscaling shared-cloud model used by HostMyWeb shared plans.
VPS customers should expect greater responsibility for operating-system and application configuration than on managed hosting.
VPS is configured to order until HostMyWeb publishes specific server sizes, regions, operating-system selections, and automated checkout products.
