Quality Shared Hosting

There are different kinds of shared hosting accounts suitable for different websites in terms of the resources or the shared hosting platform they need. To pick the most adequate shared hosting service for your web site, you have to calculate what server-side software applications it needs, how many visits per day you anticipate at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other specific requirements that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared website hosting - Strong Points

The most adequate alternative for small web portals with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this form of site hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which diminishes the overall cost per individual radically. There are various web hosting packages varying from one web hosting vendor to another, delivering different amounts of hard disk space and bandwidth, different e-mailbox account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can obtain a plan that will offer the features your web page actually demands. You will not have to pay a lot for an account you will not make use of, or wind up with a small size plan that cannot host the website. We, at Hepsia, offer a wide assortment of shared hosting accounts appropriate for private or small business websites that even include pre-activated script-based platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you begin with a cheaper package and you need more functionalities, moving to a high-end account involves just a click of the mouse.

Shared Web Hosting - Minuses

A negative aspect of the shared web hosting environment is that the servers have some software installed on them and you cannot activate additional software. Given web pages, especially web storefronts, require software applications to be available on the hosting server for them to run, and with a shared web hosting solution, you can install solely software applications that do not require complete server root access.

Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers

For web sites that request complete root-level access, or if your web portal has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of viewers per day, what you need is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A private virtual web server is a software imitation of a dedicated hosting server and it runs in strictly the same way.

Virtual Private Hosting Servers

Both services generally give full root access and can be restarted through a software platform by the client, independently from the web hosting provider. Similar to the shared web hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated web hosting server packages include diverse features depending on what the web hosting vendor offers. A Virtual Private Server web hosting account includes guaranteed server storage space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can at times be increased for brief stretches of time in case there are spare system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware architecture it is availing of, and it can be configured by altering or adding components. A VPS web server is simpler to manage as it ships with a virtualization tool, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install applications, monitor statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated web hosting server is more complex, so such a plan would rather be utilized by proficient customers.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

Yet, certain providers provide managed dedicated web hosting solutions where they carry out web server management operations instead of the client. This can be a part of plan or an additional feature.
