Top Shared Hosting
There are various types of shared hosting packages suitable for different web portals in relation to the resources or the shared hosting environment they need. To pick the most optimal shared hosting service for your website, you have to access what server-side software applications it requires, how many visits per day you anticipate at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other specific needs that may have to be fulfilled.
Shared web hosting - Advantages
The best option for small size websites with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting solution. With this form of website hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which minimizes the overall price per client noticeably. There are diverse web hosting packages differing from one web hosting company to another, providing different quotas of disk storage space and traffic, different email account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can buy a plan that will offer the features your online portal indeed requires. You will not have to pay plenty of cash for a package you will not utilize, or end up with a small sized package that cannot accommodate the site. We, at eGeekMD, offer a wide array of shared hosting plans suitable for private or small business pages that even offer pre-installed script-powered platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you begin with a low-end account and you need more system resources, upgrading to a high-end package demands only a mouse click.
Shared website hosting - Inconveniences
A downside of the shared web hosting environment is that the web servers have some software platforms installed on them and you are unable to activate new software. Some websites, particularly online stores, request software applications to be activated on the web hosting server for them to run, and with a shared website hosting package, you can activate solely software platforms that do not demand complete root access.
VPS Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers
For web sites that demand complete root access, or if your web site has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of hits per day, what you demand is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual private web server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated solution and it acts in exactly the same manner.
VPSs
Both solutions generally come with complete server root access and can be rebooted via a software tool by the customer, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Akin to the shared web hosting packages, the virtual private servers and the dedicated hosting packages sport diverse characteristics based on what the hosting vendor offers. A private virtual server plan contains guaranteed data storage, RAM and central processing unit usage quotas that can at times be enlarged for brief periods of time provided that there are unused system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limit is the hardware configuration it is availing of, and it can be configured by altering or appending components. A Virtual Private Server is easier to cope with as it comprises a virtualization tool, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install applications, monitor stats, etc. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more intricate, so such a plan would rather be used by experienced customers.
Dedicated Hosting Servers
Nevertheless, some web hosts offer managed dedicated web hosting solutions where they execute dedicated server management procedures on behalf of the client. This can be included in the plan or an extra feature.
