Best Web Hosting

There are various kinds of web hosting services suitable for different web portals in relation to the resources or the web hosting environment they need. To pick the most relevant web hosting service for your web site, you must calculate what server-side software it needs, how many visits per day you anticipate at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special requirements that may need to be met.

Shared website hosting - Upsides

The most proper choice for small scale web pages with a few hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this form of hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which lowers the overall price per client noticeably. There are various web hosting packages differing from one web hosting provider to another, offering different quotas of data space and bandwidth, different mailbox account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can obtain a package that will include the specs your online portal indeed needs. You will not have to pay lots of money for a plan you will not use, or wind up with a small scale plan that cannot accommodate the web portal. We, at Best Hostin, offer an extensive choice of web hosting plans suitable for private or small business sites that even include pre-activated script-driven systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things simpler. If you start with a cheaper account and you demand more features, upgrading to a high-end plan requires only a click.

Shared web hosting - Negative Aspects

A negative aspect of the shared website hosting platform is that the web hosting servers have some software platforms installed on them and you cannot install additional software programs. Given sites, chiefly web shops, request applications to be installed on the server for them to operate, and with a shared website hosting plan, you can activate only software platforms that do not request root access.

Private Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For sites that need complete server root access, or if your web portal has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of daily visitors, what you need is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated web hosting. A VPS web server is a software simulation of a dedicated solution and it acts in a strictly identical manner.

Virtual Web Servers

Both solutions normally come with complete root-level access and can be restarted through a software program by the customer, independently from the hosting supplier. Like the shared website hosting plans, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated server hosting packages come with different characteristics based on what the web hosting vendor has to offer. A virtual private web hosting server account contains guaranteed server space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be expanded for brief stretches of time in case there are available resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated server, the only limitation is the hardware it is availing of, and it can be upgraded by changing or adding components. A virtual private web server is simpler to manage as it includes a virtualization platform, which can be utilized to restart it, to install software applications, monitor stats, etc. The management of a dedicated web server is more intricate, so such a plan would rather be used by proficient customers.

Dedicated Servers

Yet, certain web hosting vendors provide managed dedicated server hosting services where they run dedicated hosting server management procedures instead of the customer. This can be included in the plan or an extra option.
