Quality Shared Hosting

There are various kinds of shared hosting packages appropriate for different sites with regard to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they demand. To choose the most relevant shared hosting service for your web page, you need to judge what server-side software applications it requires, how many daily visits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific requirements that may need to be met.

Shared website hosting - Perks

The most adequate alternative for small online portals with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting solution. With this form of web site hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which decreases the total price per individual drastically. There are various web hosting accounts differing from one hosting corporation to another, supplying different amounts of web space and bandwidth, different mail quotas and so on. The advantage is that you can get a plan that will have the specs your web site indeed needs. You will not need to pay lots of cash for an account you will not utilize, or wind up with a small sized account that cannot shelter the web site. We, at Gambling Site Hosting, offer an extensive collection of shared hosting solutions suitable for personal or small business pages that even offer pre-activated script-based systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you start with a less powerful package and you require more features, upgrading to a more advanced package requires just a click.

Shared web hosting - Shortcomings

A drawback of the shared website hosting platform is that the web servers have some software installed on them and you cannot install new software applications. Specific web portals, especially online storefronts, request software applications to be present on the hosting server for them to perform, and with a shared web hosting account, you can activate only software programs that do not demand server root access.

Virtual Private Web Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For web pages that request full server root access, or if your web site has many thousands or even millions of daily viewers, what you need is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A private virtual server is a software imitation of a dedicated machine and it behaves in absolutely the same manner.

VPSs

Both platforms usually include server root access and can be rebooted through a software interface by the user, independently from the web hosting company. Like the shared hosting packages, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server hosting accounts have diverse functionalities based on what the hosting provider has to offer. A virtual private web hosting server plan has guaranteed storage space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be enhanced for short spans of time if there are free resources on the physical server. With a dedicated server, the only limitation is the hardware architecture it is utilizing, and it can be configured by altering or adding components. A Virtual Private Server is easier to run as it involves virtualization software, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install software applications, monitor stats, and so on. The administration of a dedicated web server is more complicated, so such a plan would rather be resorted to by trained users.

Dedicated Web Servers

Nonetheless, some web hosting suppliers provide managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they carry out dedicated hosting server administration assignments on behalf of the client. This can be a part of package or an extra upgrade.
