There are various kinds of website hosting services appropriate for different web sites in regard to the system resources or the website hosting environment they need. To select the most optimal website hosting service for your web page, you must calculate what server-side software programs it needs, how many daily visits you expect at the beginning and in the future, as well as any other special demands that may have to be covered.

The most suitable option for small scale web portals with several hundred or a few thousand viewers is a shared hosting plan. With this form of web site hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which decreases the total price per individual drastically. There are various web hosting plans varying from one web hosting firm to another, providing different quotas of hard disk storage space and web traffic, different e-mail account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can purchase a package that will offer the specs your site indeed needs. You will not have to pay lots of money for a package you will not utilize, or end up with a small size package that cannot shelter the site. We, at Hostcheap, offer a great choice of website hosting solutions appropriate for private or small business web pages that even include pre-activated script-powered platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it easier. If you start with a cheaper package and you require more functionalities, upgrading to a better package demands just a click of the mouse.
Shared web hosting - Negative Points
A shortcoming of the shared website hosting platform is that the hosting servers have some software programs installed on them and you are unable to activate new software. Some sites, chiefly online stores, request software applications to be installed on the server for them to operate, and with a shared web hosting package, you can install only software applications that do not require full server root access.
VPS Web Servers and Dedicated Servers
For websites that need complete server root access, or if your web site has many thousands or even millions of daily visitors, what you need is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated web hosting. A VPS server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated machine and it runs in a precisely identical way.
Private Virtual Web Servers
Both environments traditionally offer root-level access and can be rebooted via a software tool by the user, independently from the web hosting company. Analogous to the shared web hosting accounts, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated web hosting server packages come with different characteristics based on what the web hosting company has to offer. A private virtual web hosting server package offers guaranteed hard disk storage space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can at times be expanded for short periods of time on condition that there are available resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web server, the only limit is the hardware equipment it is utilizing, and it can be revamped by changing or adding components. A Virtual Private Server is simpler to administer as it includes a virtualization panel, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install software applications, explore stats, etc. The management of a dedicated server is more complex, so such an account would rather be resorted to by experienced users.
Dedicated Servers
Still, given hosting providers provide managed dedicated hosting services where they complete dedicated hosting server administration operations instead of the customer. This can be a part of package or an extra service.
