| Q |
What are the disadvantages of shared hosting? |
| A |
Since you are on a server with multiple customers, what they do effects your account as well. If another customer runs a script that causes the server large amounts of load and slows it down, your sites will be slow as well. Shared hosting also has limitations on what software is installed on your server.
