Quality Shared Web Hosting

There are various sorts of shared web hosting packages suitable for different web portals in relation to the system resources or the shared web hosting platform they demand. To select the most optimal shared web hosting service for your web page, you have to estimate what server-side software applications it requires, how many daily hits you anticipate at the start and in the future, as well as any other specific demands that may have to be answered.

Shared Web Hosting - Benefits

The most appropriate alternative for small size websites with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting plan. With this form of website hosting, each user pays only for their plan, which decreases the overall price per client substantially. There are diverse web hosting plans varying from one hosting provider to another, providing different quotas of hard disk space and web traffic, different email account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can obtain a plan that will include the resources your web portal really needs. You will not have to pay plenty of money for a package you will not use, or end up with a small sized package that cannot accommodate the site. We, at Planet Concourse Hosting, offer a wide array of shared web hosting packages suitable for private or small business sites that even include pre-installed script-powered platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it easier. If you begin with a low-end plan and you demand more resources, upgrading to a better plan demands only a click of the mouse.

Shared Website Hosting - Weak Points

A weakness of the shared web hosting solution is that the web hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to install new software platforms. Given web portals, particularly online shops, request software applications to be present on the web hosting server for them to run, and with a shared hosting environment, you can activate solely software platforms that do not require complete server root access.

Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Servers

For web sites that demand server root access, or if your portal has many 1000's or even millions of viewers per day, what you demand is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated server web hosting. A virtual private hosting server is a software simulation of a dedicated hosting server and it functions in an absolutely identical way.

VPS Web Servers

Both solutions normally include full server root privileges and can be restarted via a software program by the client, independently from the hosting provider. Analogous to the shared website hosting accounts, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated web hosting server plans comprise different features depending on what the hosting company offers. A virtual hosting server package contains guaranteed web storage, RAM and CPU quotas that can sometimes be enlarged for brief periods of time on condition that there are free resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware configuration it is making use of, and it can be revved up by altering or adding components. A VPS web server is easier to manage as it offers a virtualization console, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, check stats, etc. The management of a dedicated web hosting server is more intricate, so such a solution would rather be resorted to by skilled clients.

Dedicated Web Servers

Nonetheless, certain web hosting vendors offer managed dedicated server web hosting solutions where they carry out dedicated hosting server management assignments on behalf of the client. This can be included in the plan or an additional service.
