Best Shared Hosting

There are various types of shared hosting packages suitable for different websites in terms of the resources or the shared hosting platform they need. To pick the most relevant shared hosting service for your website, you have to reckon what server-side software it needs, how many daily visits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other special needs that may need to be answered.

Shared Web Hosting - Pluses

The best alternative for small scale sites with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this form of website hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which lowers the total price per person significantly. There are various web hosting plans differing from one web hosting firm to another, supplying different quotas of data storage space and web traffic, different e-mail account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can obtain an account that will include the features your website in fact demands. You will not have to pay a lot of cash for a plan you will not make use of, or end up with a small scale account that cannot host the web site. We, at Hepsia, offer a big choice of shared hosting accounts appropriate for private or small business web portals that even offer pre-activated script-driven platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you commence with a low grade plan and you need more system resources, upgrading to a more advanced account demands only a click.

Shared Web Hosting - Drawbacks

A downside of the shared website hosting solution is that the servers have some software platforms installed on them and you are unable to activate new software applications. Certain websites, especially web shops, need software applications to be installed on the web server for them to work, and with a shared hosting package, you can install only software programs that do not require complete server root access.

Virtual Private Servers and Dedicated Servers

For web pages that require root-level access, or if your web portal has many thousands or even millions of viewers per day, what you require is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual hosting server is a software imitation of a dedicated hosting server and it acts in an absolutely identical way.

Virtual Hosting Servers

Both solutions generally give full root privileges and can be rebooted via a software platform by the user, independently from the hosting company. Similar to the shared web hosting packages, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server web hosting plans have different specs based on what the hosting supplier offers. A VPS hosting package includes guaranteed web space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be enlarged for brief stretches of time in case there are spare resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware configuration it is using, and it can be revved up by altering or adding components. A Virtual Private Server is easier to manipulate as it ships with a virtualization tool, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, monitor statistics, etc. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more complicated, so such an account would rather be used by qualified clients.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Nevertheless, certain companies offer managed dedicated web hosting solutions where they execute dedicated hosting server management procedures instead of the client. This can be a part of package or an extra upgrade.
