Beginners inhow to build a websiteThe questions on this topic are really, far too many. So Naiba here explains again for everyoneWhat is the relationship and what are the differences between Cloud Shared Hosting, VPS, and Baota Panel。

What are Cloud Shared Hosting and VPS?

Naiba previously wrote a separate article introducing Shared Hosting and VPS, so it won't be repeated here. Please refer to the previous article:#WebsiteBuilding# Beginner Question: The Difference Between Shared Hosting and VPS

What is Baota Panel?

From the official website of Baota Panel, you can see its own introduction: Simple and easy-to-use server operation and maintenance panel. To explain, using Baota Panel can easily install the environment needed for your website to run. For example, if your website requires programs like php, mysql, apache, nginx, Baota Panel installs them for you automatically, without needing manual installation and configuration. And it's also simple to use, with a graphical panel interface. Whatever you need to do, just click buttons in the Baota Panel backend.

Easy-to-understand explanation

If we must put it in plain language (so that non-experts can understand), here's an example anyone can grasp. Think of building a website as finding a place to live. Think of Shared Hosting and VPS as a rented room (basic decoration) and an independent apartment (bare walls). Then Baota Panel is the decoration team (free). Their relationship is illustrated in the diagram below.

Other website environment suites

Besides Baota Panel, there are other free one-click website environment packages (free decoration teams?). For example: LNMP one-click package:https://lnmp.org/(No panel, command-line management mode, resource-saving. Beginners might find it difficult, but it's actually quite simple.) OneinStack:https://oneinstack.com/(Same as above, with higher update frequency and more customization options. Many switch from LNMP to OneinStack.) LAMP one-click package:https://lamp.sh/(Same as above, the difference is it uses apache as the web component, while LNMP uses nginx.) Of course, if your technical skills are sufficient, you can also manually install each software one by one to set up the environment your website needs, without using the above one-click packages. The effect is the same; it just depends on who does a better job decorating.
