Best Website Hosting

There are various types of website hosting packages suitable for different web portals in terms of the resources or the website hosting environment they need. To pick the most adequate website hosting service for your web portal, you have to calculate what server-side software it demands, how many daily visits you anticipate at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other specific needs that may need to be covered.

Shared website hosting - Perquisites

The most relevant option for small scale web pages with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this form of webspace hosting, each user pays only for their plan, which reduces the overall cost per user radically. There are various web hosting accounts varying from one hosting firm to another, providing different quotas of web storage space and monthly bandwidth, different electronic mail account quotas and so on. The good point is that you can buy an account that will have the specifications your online portal in fact requires. You will not need to pay a lot for a plan you will not use, or end up with a small size package that cannot shelter the site. We, at Hostcheap, offer a vast assortment of website hosting solutions suitable for private or small business web portals that even offer pre-activated script-powered platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things simpler. If you commence with a low grade package and you require more system resources, upgrading to a more feature-rich package involves just a mouse click.

Shared web hosting - Inconveniences

A negative aspect of the shared web hosting environment is that the web servers have some software installed on them and you cannot activate new software. Specific web pages, mainly web stores, need applications to be available on the web hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared web hosting plan, you can activate only software programs that do not demand full root-level access.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For websites that request complete server root access, or if your site has many 1000's or even millions of daily visitors, what you need is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated web hosting. A virtual web hosting server is a software emulation of a dedicated machine and it acts in a precisely identical manner.

VPSs

Both environments typically offer complete root-level access and can be rebooted via a software program by the client, independently from the web hosting company. Akin to the shared website hosting packages, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated web hosting server packages come with different functionalities based on what the hosting company has to offer. A VPS server hosting account contains guaranteed data storage space, RAM and CPU quotas that can sometimes be extended for brief spans of time if there are available resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web server, the only limitation is the hardware it is making use of, and it can be upgraded by changing or appending components. A private virtual web hosting server is simpler to cope with as it comprises a virtualization panel, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install applications, examine statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated web hosting server is more elaborate, so such a solution would rather be used by practiced users.

Dedicated Servers

Nevertheless, given web hosting firms provide managed dedicated server hosting services where they carry out web hosting server administration assignments instead of the customer. This can be included in the package or an additional upgrade.
