Quality Shared Hosting

There are different varieties of shared hosting plans appropriate for different web portals when it comes to the resources or the shared hosting platform they require. To select the most relevant shared hosting service for your web site, you have to reckon what server-side software it needs, how many daily visits you anticipate at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific needs that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared Hosting - Pluses

The most relevant alternative for small size online portals with a few hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this type of hosting, each client pays only for their account, which lowers the overall cost per individual radically. There are diverse web hosting packages differing from one hosting firm to another, offering different quotas of server space and traffic, different e-mail box account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can buy a plan that will have the features your web page in fact demands. You will not have to pay a lot of cash for a plan you will not utilize, or end up with a small plan that cannot host the web site. We, at Pepcube Web Hosting, offer an extensive array of shared hosting plans appropriate for private or small business web portals that even offer pre-installed script-driven platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you commence with a low-end account and you require more resources, upgrading to a more advanced plan requires just a click.

Shared Web Hosting - Disadvantages

A weakness of the shared web hosting platform is that the servers have some software platforms installed on them and you cannot install new software platforms. Specific web sites, mainly online shops, demand applications to be present on the web server for them to operate, and with a shared web hosting package, you can activate only software that does not need server root access.

Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For sites that demand complete root-level access, or if your portal has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of visitors per day, what you demand is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated server and it operates in a strictly identical manner.

Virtual Private Web Servers

Both services normally offer full root-level access and can be restarted through a software platform by the customer, autonomously from the web hosting company. Similar to the shared web hosting plans, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server web hosting packages contain diverse features based on what the web hosting supplier offers. A VPS server package contains guaranteed web storage, random access memory and CPU quotas that can at times be extended for brief stretches of time in case there are available resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware configuration it is making use of, and it can be revamped by altering or appending components. A VPS hosting server is easier to handle as it ships with a virtualization console, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install software applications, check stats, and so on. The administration of a dedicated hosting server is more complicated, so such an account would rather be used by practiced clients.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

However, given web hosting companies offer managed dedicated server web hosting solutions where they carry out hosting server management operations instead of the client. This can be a part of package or an additional feature.
