Top Shared Hosting
There are different types of shared hosting plans appropriate for different websites when it comes to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they demand. To choose the best shared hosting service for your web page, you have to estimate what server-side software it demands, how many visits per day you expect at the beginning and in the future, as well as any other special needs that may have to be satisfied.
Shared Website Hosting - Perks
The most proper alternative for small sized web portals with several hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting package. With this form of web space hosting, each client pays only for their account, which minimizes the total cost per customer radically. There are different web hosting packages differing from one web hosting firm to another, supplying different quotas of hard disk storage space and bandwidth, different e-mail box account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can get a plan that will include the features your web site in fact demands. You will not have to pay a lot for an account you will not avail of, or end up with a small size account that cannot accommodate the online portal. We, at Host2net LLC, offer a huge variety of shared hosting plans suitable for private or small business web pages that even include pre-installed script-driven systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it easier. If you begin with a basic account and you demand more system resources, upgrading to a more feature-rich account takes just a click of the mouse.
Shared web hosting - Drawbacks
A weak side of the shared website hosting environment is that the web hosting servers have some software platforms installed on them and you cannot activate new software. Some web pages, above all web stores, request applications to be available on the server for them to operate, and with a shared hosting environment, you can install solely software programs that do not request full root-level access.
VPS Servers and Dedicated Web Servers
For portals that demand full root-level access, or if your web page has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of hits per day, what you require is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A VPS server is a virtual emulation of a dedicated web hosting server and it acts in a strictly identical way.
Virtual Web Servers
Both solutions usually include root access and can be restarted through a software interface by the customer, independently from the web hosting company. Similar to the shared hosting plans, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server hosting plans come with different specs depending on what the hosting provider has to offer. A private virtual web server package contains guaranteed web storage, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can at times be increased for brief spells of time in case there are free resources on the physical server. With a dedicated server, the only limitation is the hardware equipment it is utilizing, and it can be revamped by changing or adding components. A Virtual Private Server is easier to manage as it involves virtualization software, which can be utilized to restart it, to install applications, monitor stats, etc. The management of a dedicated server is more elaborate, so such a solution would rather be used by practiced clients.
Dedicated Servers
However, given web hosting companies offer managed dedicated server web hosting services where they implement server management assignments on behalf of the customer. This can be a part of package or an additional feature.
Prior To Choosing...
Settling on the top hosting package is vital as it can have an effect on the proper functioning of a online portal.
