If I understand this right, in colocation hosting you own your server but lease space to store it, and in dedicated you lease the server and the space. Assuming the same server and space, which is more expensive to do?

Dedicated hosting is basically cheaper
Great adviceI recommend you base your decision on what your needs are.
Why not?You do not want to co-locate your server in the middle of the upper peninsula of Michigan
Data centers colocate servers for businesses around the globe - you don't need to be close to your equipment to run a successful business. Many prefer it, but it's not necessary.If you live far away from your equipment, I recommend you lease a dedicated server.
Good advice for most, but not all businesses.Let the experts deal with the hardware and you worry about making your web presence big enough to need another server.
