Great tips for SSH but still it is not for everybody, you need to know at least the basics to understand it and use it on blog hosting and personal websites

Hi Fredric,

Thanks for your response. I understand what you're saying now.

I'm probably on a shared server (cheap GoDaddy.com) and since I hope to blow up soon, I think I may need to take your advice.

Talk to you soon.

April :-)

@AroundHarlem,

Whats up fam! My apologies if my post was a little obtuse. Basically what I'm saying is that if you are on a wordpress.com or blogspot.com site, your content and site are hosted by those companies.

If you move to your own domain and get your own hosting plan, the ones companies usually advertise are cheap plans. You are actually sharing your space with other websites (space, network, access) and your options are limited. This is called shared hosting.

Because you are sharing the space, providers have to be conscious of how much traffic and space your site takes up because you could adversely affect your neighbors. Basically, if your site blows up, they will shut you down because your hosting plan isn't designed to handle it.

That is where the 'opt for a virtual private server' line came in. A virtual private server gives you a little more leeway and space. A provider gives you a 'virtual' domain that does not have the restrictions of a shared host.

If you HAVE to go shared hosting, opt for a SSH access option. It is a secure way to access your server (typically linux or unix) and do cool stuff....as described above.

Make a little more sense?

Am I the only one who doesn't know what he's talking about?
