Shared Hosting Packages Defined

Shared hosting is a type of Internet service that enables persons and firms to make their web sites reachable on the World Wide Web. Hosting providers are companies that offer disk drive space on a server located in a datacenter facility and ensure constant Internet connectivity.

Where do you begin?

The World Wide Web has become a key staple in everybody's everyday routine. It gives you the ability to gain extra profit, but can also be a major source of revenue. In order to place ads on your web page or to publicize a commodity that you sell, you always need a hosting service, which will guarantee that your online portal is secure and always up and running. But how do you find one that is affordably priced and yet reliable enough?

The shared hosting platform

The solution web hosting service providers have introduced is called shared hosting. With the shared hosting solution, lots of customers are hosted on the very same web server. There are rigid limitations on the resources that each hosting account can actually use, thus guaranteeing that they do not interfere with each other. The shared solution offers satisfactory performance and is cheaper than, let's say, a dedicated server, which is used by only one single user. The shared hosting solution allows shared hosting providers to offer their customers moderate prices. It typically comes with intuitive hosting Control Panel software, as is the case with the server that we at Hepsia provide, and allows everybody to manage their websites without worrying about server configuration and maintenance procedures, which are entirely handled by the hosting provider.

Virtual private servers hosting

With the virtual private servers hosting solution, on the other hand, you share a physical machine with other private virtual server web hosting clients, but you are allocated a dedicated share of the resources. The Virtual Private Server solution is the middle ground between the much more affordably priced shared web hosting solution and the more high-priced dedicated server web hosting solution, and is a very suitable option for anyone who wants to launch, for example, a live streaming site or a social network. The fact that you have to take care of the server configuration settings and software updates yourself is somewhat of a downside, but this could also be a big asset if you indeed need to make certain server configuration changes - something that would be unthinkable on a shared web server.

Dedicated Servers

Dedicated servers are in the majority of instances much more expensive than shared web hosting or Virtual Private Server hosting solutions. You might ask why would anyone want to use a dedicated server then? The reply is pretty simple. If your firm has a intense-traffic online portal, or simply has very special web server setup and safety requirements, the most suitable option is a dedicated web hosting server that you or your server admins can manage directly. For somebody who is willing to invest in security and dependability, the greater price is of no concern. You are granted full server root access and can utilize 100 percent of the physical server's system resources without anyone else using these system resources and intervening with your sites.
