Non-Shared Hosting Services
The non-shared hosting solutions normally come in three flavors, Managed, Dedicated Server, and CoLocation.
Managed Hosting is when your account is hosted on a server or servers and the Host takes care of all of the technical details. With Managed Hosting support is included in the monthly bill and often times it is not cheap.
Dedicated Server Hosting is when you rent a server from a Host and do all of the administration yourself. Support is usually at a minimum. Often times you can save money on the extra monthly support costs by going to Dedicated. Dedicated Server Hosting is normally reserved for experienced power users.
Colocation Hosting is when you build the server and install the software yourself. You then deliver your server to the Host and they hook it up to their network and power grid. In this arrangement, you are paying for the network, the facilities, and the power. However, the upfront costs might be more, the monthly costs will generally be a lot less.

What To Look For:
When choosing a Managed Host try to find a Host who gives you maximum uptime, responsive and technically proficient support, and a server that can run fast even under the "worse" conditions.
When looking for a Dedicated Server Host check the speed of their network, the quality of their facilities, and the cost of their servers. Also take notes of any free support they give.
When choosing a Colo Host make sure you have a thorough knowledge of both their facilities and their protocol when it comes to handling emergency situations.

Managed Hosting |
With Managed Hosting support is at a high priority as well as
being at a premium. While other non-shared hosting plans, support
normally costs extra. Managed Hosting is perfect for those who
require a Dedicated server, but do not have the necessary skills
to properly administer all that goes in to making sure a server
runs at peak efficiency... more

Colocation Hosting |
CoLocation will cost you a lot upfront. Generally speaking you
want to purchase at least two servers, one as a primary and one on
hand to replace the primary incase of hardware failure. CoLocation
is perfect for those who need a Dedicated Server, but require
special software installations or prefer to pay all of the
hardware costs out of pocket upfront...

Review for Managed Hosting services:
Verdict: WiredTree offers powerful managed solutions backed by a stable network and excellent support. Although our Independent Review Panel did not find any problems while using their hosting plans, the prices are not for everyone and some may not like having to only use CentOS. Other than that, WiredTree is an exceptional host.
