Best Shared Hosting

There are different types of shared hosting plans appropriate for different sites in regard to the resources or the shared hosting environment they need. To select the most proper shared hosting service for your web portal, you have to evaluate what server-side software it needs, how many visits per day you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may need to be covered.

Shared website hosting - Positive Signs

The most appropriate alternative for small web sites with a few hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this form of web site hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which minimizes the overall price per customer seriously. There are diverse web hosting solutions varying from one hosting vendor to another, furnishing different amounts of disk storage and monthly traffic, different e-mailbox account quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can order an account that will provide the specifications your online portal actually demands. You will not have to pay plenty of cash for a package you will not avail of, or wind up with a small scale package that cannot shelter the web portal. We, at Your Personal Server, offer an immense selection of shared hosting solutions suitable for personal or small business pages that even include pre-activated script-powered platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it easier. If you begin with a less powerful account and you demand more resources, upgrading to a more feature-rich account takes only a click.

Shared web hosting - Negative Points

A shortcoming of the shared web hosting platform is that the hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot activate new software platforms. Given websites, particularly web stores, need applications to be present on the hosting server for them to function, and with a shared website hosting plan, you can install solely software that does not require complete server root access.

Private Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For web portals that request full root access, or if your website has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of visitors per day, what you need is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual hosting server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated hosting server and it functions in precisely the same way.

VPS Web Servers

Both services generally offer full root-level access and can be rebooted through a software platform by the user, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Just like the shared website hosting plans, the virtual private servers and the dedicated hosting server packages have diverse specifications based on what the hosting company has to offer. A virtual private web server package includes guaranteed data space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can occasionally be enlarged for short stretches of time if there are free resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated server, the only limit is the hardware architecture it is using, and it can be revved up by altering or appending components. A virtual hosting server is easier to manage as it ships with a virtualization panel, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, monitor stats, and so on. The administration of a dedicated web server is more complex, so such an account would rather be used by knowledgeable customers.

Dedicated Web Servers

Still, some web hosting providers provide managed dedicated server web hosting solutions where they execute dedicated web server administration assignments instead of the client. This can be a part of plan or an additional feature.
