Quality Shared Hosting

There are various types of shared hosting solutions suitable for different websites in terms of the system resources or the shared hosting platform they require. To choose the most appropriate shared hosting service for your web site, you have to access what server-side software applications it demands, how many daily hits you anticipate at the beginning and in the future, as well as any other specific needs that may have to be answered.

Shared Web Hosting - Good Points

The most suitable option for small scale web sites with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting account. With this type of website hosting, each client pays only for their account, which diminishes the overall price per person seriously. There are different web hosting accounts differing from one web hosting company to another, supplying different amounts of web storage space and monthly traffic, different e-mailbox account quotas and so on. The advantage is that you can order a package that will include the specs your web portal in fact demands. You will not have to pay lots of money for a package you will not avail of, or end up with a small size package that cannot accommodate the web page. We, at (Phoenix-Computers), offer a wide choice of shared hosting packages suitable for private or small business web sites that even come with pre-activated script-driven systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it easier. If you start with a cheaper package and you demand more functionalities, upgrading to a more feature-rich package takes only a click.

Shared Hosting - Downsides

A weak side of the shared website hosting solution is that the web hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot install additional software. Certain sites, particularly web stores, need applications to be installed on the server for them to perform, and with a shared website hosting platform, you can activate only software programs that do not demand root access.

VPS Hosting Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For sites that demand full root-level access, or if your online portal has many 1000's or even millions of visits per day, what you require is a VPS hosting or a dedicated server. A private virtual server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated server and it runs in a strictly identical way.

Virtual Servers

Both solutions usually provide complete root-level access and can be rebooted through a software tool by the customer, autonomously from the web hosting company. Just like the shared website hosting packages, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web hosting server accounts involve diverse specs depending on what the hosting vendor offers. A private virtual web server hosting package has guaranteed data storage space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can at times be expanded for short stretches of time on condition that there are spare system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware architecture it is availing of, and it can be upgraded by changing or appending components. A virtual web server is simpler to administer as it involves a virtualization platform, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, examine statistics, and so on. The management of a dedicated web server is more intricate, so such a solution would rather be resorted to by tech-savvy clients.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Nevertheless, some web hosting suppliers offer managed dedicated web hosting services where they run dedicated server administration procedures on behalf of the client. This can be a part of package or an additional service.

Before You Elect...

Selecting the top hosting package is crucial as it can have an influence on the stable work of a site. Prior to choosing a package, compare the pros and cons, investigate completely all the preconditions for the web site to run properly, particularly if it is script-powered.
