Top Shared Hosting

There are various types of shared hosting accounts suitable for different web sites in terms of the system resources or the shared hosting platform they need. To select the most relevant shared hosting service for your online portal, you need to access 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 - Positive Aspects

The most adequate alternative for small scale online portals with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this type of web hosting, each user pays only for their plan, which diminishes the total cost per customer significantly. There are different web hosting solutions varying from one web hosting firm to another, supplying different amounts of hard disk space and web traffic, different email mailbox account quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can obtain a package that will have the specs your web site in fact needs. You will not need to pay a lot of cash for an account you will not utilize, or end up with a small size package that cannot shelter the web page. We, at World Hosting, offer a large assortment of shared hosting plans appropriate for personal or small business pages that even provide pre-installed script-based platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you commence with a low priced account and you require more features, moving to a more feature-rich package requires just a mouse click.

Shared Web Hosting - Weaknesses

A drawback of the shared website hosting solution is that the web servers have some software installed on them and you cannot install additional software. Some web portals, particularly web storefronts, demand software applications to be installed on the server for them to run, and with a shared hosting environment, you can install only software programs that do not demand complete root access.

Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For websites that require full root-level access, or if your web portal has many 1000's or even millions of hits per day, what you demand is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual private web server is a software simulation of a dedicated web server and it operates in a precisely identical way.

Virtual Servers

Both solutions generally offer full root privileges and can be rebooted through a software interface by the client, independently from the web hosting provider. Much like the shared website hosting plans, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server accounts involve diverse specs based on what the hosting supplier offers. A Virtual Private Server plan offers guaranteed server space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can at times be boosted for brief periods of time if there are free resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is making use of, and it can be revamped by altering or adding components. A virtual hosting server is simpler to run as it comes with virtualization software, which can be utilized to restart it, to install applications, examine statistics, and so on. The management of a dedicated server is more complicated, so such a solution would rather be resorted to by proficient customers.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

Nevertheless, given hosting providers offer managed dedicated web hosting solutions where they run web hosting server administration assignments instead of the customer. This can be a part of plan or an additional service.
