If you were to purchase a dedicated web server it could cost you several thousand dollars, and you would have to find a place to store it, which would be an additional monthly fee for colocation services. Fortunately, there are dedicated hosting plans that let you lease a dedicated server without any commitment to purchase.
Dedicated hosting plans start at about $100 per month and go all the way up. As in every other industry, you'll undoubtedly get what you pay for. Most dedicated hosting plans cost about $300-$400 per month for a fully managed dedicated server.
It is important to decide whether or not it is necessary to purchase a dedicated hosting plan for your web sites. Surprisingly, many people purchase dedicated hosting and never use more than half of their server resources. Instead of spending a lot of money on dedicated hosting you may be able to save money by purchasing a less powerful plan that is more suitable for your online business.
Of course, unmanaged plans cost significantly less because the hosting company does not have to pay for the technical support associated with server maintenance. It is possible to find unmanaged hosting accounts for about $100-$120 in some cases. The cost usually depends upon the capabilities of the dedicated server being leased.
