Top Shared Hosting

There are various sorts of shared hosting solutions appropriate for different web pages when it comes to the system resources or the shared hosting platform they need. To pick the most relevant shared hosting service for your web page, you need to evaluate what server-side software applications it demands, how many hits per day you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other special demands that may have to be answered.

Shared Website Hosting - Pluses

The most optimal choice for small size sites with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting account. With this form of site hosting, each user pays only for their account, which decreases the total price per individual considerably. There are diverse web hosting solutions varying from one web hosting firm to another, furnishing different quotas of server storage space and web traffic, different email mailbox account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can purchase a plan that will offer the resources your website in fact requires. You will not need to pay lots of money for a package you will not utilize, or end up with a small size account that cannot host the website. We, at VirtualNIX, offer an extensive collection of shared hosting accounts appropriate for personal or small business web sites that even include pre-installed script-powered systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it easier. If you begin with a less powerful account and you demand more features, moving to a high-end package demands only a click.

Shared web hosting - Minuses

A weakness of the shared hosting environment is that the web hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot install additional software. Certain websites, chiefly online stores, need applications to be present on the web hosting server for them to perform, and with a shared web hosting plan, you can activate solely software that does not demand complete root access.

Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers

For web portals that need complete root access, or if your portal has many 1000's or even millions of daily viewers, what you demand is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual server is a software emulation of a dedicated hosting server and it performs in a strictly identical manner.

Virtual Private Web Servers

Both environments traditionally include complete server root access and can be rebooted via a software program by the customer, independently from the hosting provider. Like the shared hosting plans, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server hosting plans have different specs depending on what the web hosting company has to offer. A private virtual web server account has guaranteed data storage, random access memory and CPU quotas that can at times be increased for short spans of time in case there are available resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware it is utilizing, and it can be revved up by altering or adding components. A virtual private hosting server is simpler to handle as it includes a virtualization console, which can be utilized to restart it, to install software applications, monitor statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated hosting server is more complex, so such a solution would rather be utilized by knowledgeable customers.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

Yet, certain hosting firms provide managed dedicated server web hosting solutions where they perform dedicated hosting server management assignments on behalf of the client. This can be a part of plan or an additional feature.
