California is the third largest state in the union and covers much of the U.S. west coast. You'll need to choose between northern California or southern California web hosting, possibly even somewhere in between. California is a big state with a thriving economy and vested interest in the Internet. You probably won't go wrong no matter where you go.

Northern California or Southern California Web Hosting: San Francisco and Los Angeles

The two most well known cities representing northern California and southern California are probably San Francisco and Los Angeles, respectively. San Francisco features the height of liberal culture in a laid back, low-pressure environment. Los Angeles brings to mind the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. Either city provides appealing web hosting options for any Internet company.

Selecting California VPS Hosting

With all of the web hosting options in California, you shouldn't have any problem finding a VPS. What is a VPS and how does it differ from other plans? You may notice when comparing hosting fees that some plans cost only a few dollars, while others may cost well over $100. The fluctuating cost represents the difference between a shared server plan and a dedicated server plan. With a shared server plan, a number of companies share the same server, while each company gets its own disk space and bandwidth. A dedicated server plan allows one company to use the whole server for itself. The VPS hosting plan falls in between. With a VPS plan, the server is partitioned in such a way that each partition behaves as its own server, with its own IP address, control panel, etc. Since your company is not using the entire resources of the server, the hosting comes at a reasonable price. However, due to the partition, you get the benefits of a private, and not a shared server.
