Top Shared Hosting

There are different kinds of shared hosting packages appropriate for different web portals in relation to the resources or the shared hosting platform they need. To pick the most suitable shared hosting service for your site, you have to evaluate what server-side software it needs, how many visits per day you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other specific needs that may have to be answered.

Shared Hosting - Positive Signs

The most proper option for small websites with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this form of website hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which diminishes the overall cost per client seriously. There are different web hosting solutions differing from one provider to another, furnishing different amounts of server space and traffic, different mail account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can get a plan that will have the resources your site actually needs. You will not need to pay lots of money for an account you will not avail of, or end up with a small sized plan that cannot accommodate the website. We, at 1hosts, offer a great assortment of shared hosting solutions appropriate for personal or small business web portals that even provide pre-activated script-driven platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you start with a low-cost package and you require more functionalities, upgrading to a more powerful plan involves only a mouse click.

Shared Website Hosting - Downsides

A weak side of the shared web hosting platform is that the web hosting servers have some software programs installed on them and you are unable to install new software. Certain web pages, above all online shops, demand software applications to be present on the web hosting server for them to work, and with a shared website hosting solution, you can activate only software that does not need full root access.

VPS Web Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For sites that require complete root-level access, or if your portal has many thousands or even millions of daily hits, what you demand is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A VPS web hosting server is a virtual emulation of a dedicated web hosting server and it runs in absolutely the same way.

Virtual Private Servers

Both platforms commonly include complete root-level access and can be rebooted via a software interface by the user, independently from the web hosting company. Much like the shared web hosting plans, the virtual private servers and the dedicated web server packages include diverse specifications based on what the web hosting supplier has to offer. A virtual server web hosting account includes guaranteed web space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can at times be expanded for short stretches of time if there are available system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is availing of, and it can be upgraded by altering or appending components. A VPS web hosting server is simpler to cope with as it ships with a virtualization platform, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install software applications, check stats, and so on. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more complex, so such a solution would rather be used by tech-savvy users.

Dedicated Web Servers

Yet, given providers provide managed dedicated hosting services where they complete dedicated server administration assignments on behalf of the customer. This can be a part of package or an additional service.

Before You Reach a Decision...

Opting for the top hosting plan is vital as it can have an influence on the stable work of a web page.
