Top Shared Hosting

There are different sorts of shared hosting services appropriate for different websites with regard to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they demand. To select the most relevant shared hosting service for your website, you must estimate what server-side software applications it demands, how many visits per day you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may need to be covered.

Shared web hosting - Positive Sides

The best choice for small sites with several hundred or a few thousand viewers is a shared hosting solution. With this type of web space hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which minimizes the overall price per customer substantially. There are diverse web hosting solutions differing from one web hosting vendor to another, supplying different quotas of disk space and monthly traffic, different mail address account quotas and so on. The good point is that you can pay for a plan that will offer the features your web page indeed requires. You will not have to pay a lot of money for an account you will not avail of, or end up with a small account that cannot shelter the web site. We, at Economic Hosting, offer a wide choice of shared hosting packages suitable for private or small business websites that even provide pre-installed script-based platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things simpler. If you begin with a low-end plan and you require more functionalities, upgrading to a more advanced package demands just a mouse click.

Shared Website Hosting - Weaknesses

A weak side of the shared web hosting platform is that the servers have some software platforms installed on them and you are unable to install additional software platforms. Some web portals, especially web storefronts, require software applications to be installed on the web server for them to work, and with a shared website hosting environment, you can activate only software platforms that do not need root access.

VPS Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For online portals that require complete root access, or if your website has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of daily viewers, what you need is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A VPS web hosting server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated machine and it behaves in exactly the same manner.

VPS Web Servers

Both solutions generally offer full root access and can be restarted via a software tool by the user, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Similar to the shared website hosting accounts, the VPS hosting and the dedicated server web hosting packages include different specs depending on what the web hosting vendor offers. A virtual private web server package contains guaranteed data storage, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can at times be enlarged for short spans of time provided that there are free resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware equipment it is availing of, and it can be configured by changing or appending components. A virtual hosting server is simpler to manage as it offers virtualization software, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, explore stats, etc. The management of a dedicated web hosting server is more intricate, so such a package would rather be resorted to by qualified users.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

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