Quality Shared Hosting

There are different sorts of shared hosting plans suitable for different web portals with regard to the system resources or the shared hosting platform they require. To choose the most relevant shared hosting service for your web site, you have to calculate what server-side software programs it requires, how many daily visits you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other specific requirements that may need to be fulfilled.

Shared web hosting - Perquisites

The most proper choice for small sized websites with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this type of webspace hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which reduces the overall cost per client noticeably. There are various web hosting packages varying from one web hosting firm to another, offering different amounts of server space and bandwidth, different e-mailbox account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can order a plan that will include the resources your site really demands. You will not need to pay a lot for a package you will not avail of, or end up with a small package that cannot host the website. We, at Glomulser Web hosting, offer a great selection of shared hosting plans appropriate for private or small business web portals that even come with pre-activated script-driven systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you start with a low priced plan and you need more functionalities, moving to a high-end plan requires just a click.

Shared website hosting - Negative Aspects

A negative aspect of the shared website hosting platform is that the servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to install additional software applications. Some web sites, chiefly web shops, demand software applications to be activated on the web server for them to operate, and with a shared website hosting platform, you can install only software platforms that do not require complete root access.

Virtual Private Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For websites that demand full root access, or if your online portal has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of hits per day, what you require is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A virtual private hosting server is a software imitation of a dedicated web server and it acts in absolutely the same manner.

Virtual Private Web Hosting Servers

Both solutions typically give complete server root access and can be restarted through a software tool by the user, independently from the web hosting company. Similar to the shared web hosting packages, the VPS hosting and the dedicated hosting plans sport diverse specs based on what the hosting vendor has to offer. A VPS web hosting server account offers guaranteed web storage space, RAM and CPU quotas that can at times be enhanced for short spans of time on condition that there are available system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is availing of, and it can be configured by changing or adding components. A private virtual web hosting server is simpler to tackle as it involves a virtualization console, which can be used to reboot it, to install applications, check statistics, etc. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more complex, so such a package would rather be resorted to by practiced customers.

Dedicated Servers

Still, some companies provide managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they carry out dedicated server administration tasks on behalf of the client. This can be included in the plan or an additional service.

Before You Decide...
