How comes a Virtual Private Server is so much less than a dedicated server?

Depending on the Virtual Private Server you are looking at and the dedicated server you are looking at there can be a considerable price difference. The reason for the price difference is that there are usually 10 or more customers sharing the resources and therefore the expense of the hardware where with a dedicated server it is only one person paying for it. A Virtual Private Server is a great way to get the security and privacy of a dedicated server at a fraction of the cost.

In a Virtual Private Server more than one customers sharing the resources so it is less expensive.

The Dedicated Hosting environment provides an exclusive server or servers devoted solely to your web site. You do not share a server with other customers, as with shared hosting.
