Best Website Hosting

There are various types of website hosting packages appropriate for different websites in terms of the resources or the website hosting environment they need. To select the most suitable website hosting service for your website, you must reckon what server-side software it demands, how many daily visits you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special requirements that may need to be covered.

Shared Website Hosting - Benefits

The most suitable option for small size online portals with several hundred or a few thousand viewers is a shared hosting plan. With this type of hosting, each client pays only for their plan, which diminishes the total cost per user substantially. There are diverse web hosting accounts differing from one hosting vendor to another, supplying different quotas of data storage and traffic, different e-mail address account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can get a plan that will offer the features your site really demands. You will not have to pay lots of cash for an account you will not use, or wind up with a small size plan that cannot accommodate the site. We, at I-Solutions Hosting, offer a big variety of website hosting packages suitable for personal or small business portals that even provide pre-activated script-based systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you begin with a low-end plan and you need more system resources, moving to a more advanced package involves only a click.

Shared web hosting - Weak Sides

A negative aspect of the shared web hosting environment is that the hosting servers have some software platforms installed on them and you are unable to activate additional software programs. Specific web sites, especially web stores, require software applications to be installed on the web hosting server for them to work, and with a shared web hosting solution, you can activate only software programs that do not request root access.

Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Servers

For websites that demand root access, or if your portal has many thousands or even millions of daily visits, what you demand is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated web hosting. A VPS web server is a software imitation of a dedicated hosting server and it operates in an exactly identical manner.

Virtual Hosting Servers

Both environments traditionally offer full server root privileges and can be restarted through a software platform by the user, autonomously from the hosting provider. Akin to the shared web hosting packages, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated web server hosting plans come with different specifications based on what the hosting company offers. A private virtual web server account includes guaranteed storage space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be increased for short spells of time if there are unused resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is availing of, and it can be revamped by altering or appending components. A virtual hosting server is simpler to tackle as it arrives with a virtualization console, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, check stats, etc. The management of a dedicated web server is more complex, so such a package would rather be utilized by experienced clients.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

However, certain hosting vendors provide managed dedicated web server hosting services where they execute web hosting server administration procedures on behalf of the client. This can be included in the package or an additional feature.

Before You Decide...

Settling on the top hosting package is crucial as it can have an influence on the stable functioning of a web site.
