Top Shared Hosting

There are different sorts of shared hosting accounts suitable for different websites in regard to the resources or the shared hosting environment they need. To select the most proper shared hosting service for your web site, you need to evaluate what server-side software applications it demands, how many daily hits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may need to be satisfied.

Shared website hosting - Perks

The most proper option for small scale web sites with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this form of web hosting, each user pays only for their plan, which minimizes the overall cost per person noticeably. There are different web hosting accounts differing from one provider to another, offering different amounts of data storage and web traffic, different e-mail quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can buy a plan that will offer the specs your site indeed demands. You will not have to pay plenty of cash for a package you will not avail of, or end up with a small account that cannot shelter the website. We, at My Internet Host, offer an extensive variety of shared hosting packages suitable for private or small business portals that even include pre-installed script-based systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things easier. If you start with a less powerful package and you require more features, moving to a more powerful plan requires only a click.

Shared Hosting - Shortcomings

A weak side of the shared web hosting platform is that the web servers have some software programs installed on them and you cannot install new software platforms. Certain sites, chiefly web stores, require applications to be available on the web server for them to perform, and with a shared web hosting platform, you can install solely software platforms that do not request complete root access.

Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For web sites that need server root access, or if your portal has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of visitors per day, what you require is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A VPS server is a software emulation of a dedicated server and it behaves in precisely the same manner.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both solutions generally give complete root access and can be restarted via a software platform by the client, autonomously from the web hosting supplier. Analogous to the shared website hosting plans, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server web hosting packages include diverse specs depending on what the hosting company has to offer. A virtual web server hosting account offers guaranteed hard disk storage, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can occasionally be increased for short intervals of time in case there are unused system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is using, and it can be configured by changing or adding components. A virtual web hosting server is easier to tackle as it comes with a virtualization tool, which can be used to reboot it, to install applications, monitor stats, and so on. The management of a dedicated server is more elaborate, so such a plan would rather be used by trained users.

Dedicated Servers

Yet, given hosting corporations provide managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they carry out server management procedures instead of the customer. This can be a part of package or an extra option.
