Best Shared Hosting

There are various kinds of shared hosting solutions appropriate for different websites in relation to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they require. To pick the most suitable shared hosting service for your site, you need to reckon what server-side software it needs, how many visits per day you expect at the beginning and in the future, as well as any other specific needs that may have to be answered.

Shared website hosting - Pluses

The most proper choice for small scale web portals with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this form of site hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which reduces the overall price per person seriously. There are different web hosting packages differing from one hosting provider to another, delivering different amounts of hard disk storage space and monthly traffic, different email box account quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can purchase an account that will provide the specs your web site actually requires. You will not have to pay plenty of money for an account you will not use, or wind up with a small account that cannot accommodate the web site. We, at Web Hosting Dorks, offer a vast choice of shared hosting plans suitable for personal or small business web portals that even include pre-installed script-powered platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it easier. If you commence with a less powerful account and you require more functionalities, moving to a more advanced package involves just a mouse click.

Shared Web Hosting - Inconveniences

A drawback of the shared website hosting solution is that the web servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot install new software applications. Some sites, chiefly web shops, demand software applications to be installed on the hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared website hosting account, you can activate solely software applications that do not need root-level access.

Private Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For web portals that request complete root access, or if your portal has many thousands or even millions of daily visitors, what you need is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A virtual server is a software imitation of a dedicated solution and it behaves in strictly the same way.

Virtual Servers

Both services usually include full root-level access and can be rebooted through a software interface by the client, autonomously from the web hosting supplier. Similar to the shared hosting packages, the VPS hosting and the dedicated hosting accounts have different functionalities based on what the hosting company has to offer. A virtual web hosting server plan offers guaranteed server storage space, random access memory and central processing unit usage quotas that can sometimes be expanded for short spans of time if there are unused system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware it is availing of, and it can be revved up by altering or adding components. A VPS hosting server is easier to administer as it involves a virtualization panel, which can be used to restart it, to install software applications, monitor stats, and so on. The management of a dedicated web server is more elaborate, so such a plan would rather be used by competent users.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Still, some web hosting providers provide managed dedicated web hosting services where they implement web server management procedures instead of the customer. This can be a part of plan or an extra feature.
