Dedicated hosting provides a dedicated server to one website, which does not have to share the server with any other website. Not only do you have complete control over your own files, but you also remotely control the server's operating system and all the server software. This type of web hosting is primarily designed for websites that generate extremely heavy traffic and have more complex technical requirements.
While the hosting service is still responsible for maintaining the server's Internet connection and any backup systems they use, dedicated hosting provides the most flexible environment for your website. Of course, it is also more expensive.
From the above descriptions, you should have a feeling for which type of hosting would be best for your situation. With either type, you are going to benefit from the service provider's expertise in maintaining that always-on connection to the Internet, regular server backups so that you never lose any of your files, and technical support in any situation.
There are probably thousands of web hosting companies to choose from, so start with a few good recommendations from friends or from Internet reviews, and compare all the features from your top 3 or 4 choices. Doing this will ensure that you get a web hosting service that meets your requirements and makes you very glad you found them!
