If you want a total control in your web hosting account, you probably want to choose the unmanaged web hosting services. There are usually two types of dedicated hosting, the managed and unmanaged hosting service plan.

You could have a total control of your website administration in the server and you could also assign other administrator to take care of the technical side and take care of your web information in your server.

If you don’t have the expertise to take care of your server but still wants to have a freedom in manage it, you could ask technical person to do the tasks for you. This person will be managed your server and solve any problems that might happen in it. He will be responsible maintaining a good condition of server so it could be accessible by the people who visited your website.

The difference between managed hosting services and unmanaged dedicated web hosting usually could be seen by the support system. While you’re using the managed web hosting, you don’t have to prepare any administrator on the server side because all of it has been taken care of by the web hosting provider. Meanwhile, using the unmanaged web hosting gives you a total control for the server side administrator. You could assign one of your technical supports to do it for you.

Unmanaged web hosting also allows you to increase your disk space. Some of the computer companies already designed the physical servers that you could use to configure your unmanaged hosting applications. Some of the companies like HP and
Dell provided you with a software program that could be run in the office network and also handle any development applications and web server.

If you don’t have any technical support and you want an easy web hosting service with the unmanaged web hosting, you could go directly to managed web hosting plan. Choosing this plan will allow you to get the same features that you’ll get in the unmanaged web hosting minus the headache in administrative side. It’s also a good choice because the costs that you’ll pay already included with administrative support and you don’t have to do regular update for your server because the web hosting company will do that for you.
