You will get to know that there is not only one type i.e shared hosting you will get multiple types of hosting if you need.
Many companies that have a huge amount of data can’t rely on shared hostings so that’s why there are different types of hosting servers which you can use on your requirement.

It’s cheap than other’s and from my advice, if you are just starting out then you can go with this hosting…
