Quality Shared Hosting

There are various kinds of shared hosting accounts appropriate for different websites when it comes to the system resources or the shared hosting platform they demand. To select the most relevant shared hosting service for your web page, you have to evaluate what server-side software applications it demands, how many daily visits you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other special needs that may need to be fulfilled.

Shared Website Hosting - Positive Aspects

The most proper alternative for small scale online portals with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this type of web hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which minimizes the total cost per individual considerably. There are various web hosting packages differing from one web hosting firm to another, supplying different amounts of disk space and web traffic, different mail quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can get a package that will offer the specs your web page in fact requires. You will not have to pay a lot for a package you will not utilize, or wind up with a small plan that cannot host the website. We, at Elwhed Hosting, offer an immense variety of shared hosting packages appropriate for personal or small business pages that even offer pre-installed script-based systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you start with a less powerful package and you require more functionalities, moving to a more advanced plan involves just a click of the mouse.

Shared Web Hosting - Negative Points

A negative aspect of the shared website hosting platform is that the web hosting servers have some software installed on them and you are unable to activate additional software programs. Some online portals, particularly web shops, request software applications to be present on the web server for them to perform, and with a shared website hosting account, you can install solely software programs that do not require root access.

VPS Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For sites that require complete server root access, or if your web portal has many 1000's or even millions of hits per day, what you demand is a VPS hosting or a dedicated server. A virtual private hosting server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated server and it works in an absolutely identical manner.

Virtual Hosting Servers

Both environments normally provide full server root access and can be rebooted through a software tool by the customer, independently from the hosting supplier. Much like the shared website hosting accounts, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web server hosting packages involve different specifications depending on what the hosting company has to offer. A virtual private web server hosting plan includes guaranteed hard disk storage space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can at times be boosted for brief intervals of time provided that there are spare system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware equipment it is utilizing, and it can be configured by changing or adding components. A VPS web hosting server is easier to run as it offers a virtualization platform, which can be utilized to restart it, to install software applications, explore stats, etc. The management of a dedicated hosting server is more complex, so such a solution would rather be resorted to by knowledgeable users.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

Yet, given hosting companies provide managed dedicated server web hosting solutions where they complete web server administration tasks on behalf of the client. This can be included in the package or an extra upgrade.

Prior To Selecting...

Picking the top hosting plan is important as it can have an influence on the stable performance of a website. Before opting for a package, compare the pros and cons, review completely all the preconditions for the web page to operate properly, especially if it is script-powered.
