Top Shared Web Hosting

There are various sorts of shared web hosting solutions appropriate for different websites in regard to the resources or the shared web hosting platform they require. To select the best shared web hosting service for your online portal, you need to calculate what server-side software programs it needs, how many daily hits you anticipate at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other specific demands that may have to be covered.

Shared Hosting - Perks

The most proper choice for small scale web pages with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this form of hosting, each client pays only for their account, which reduces the total cost per client seriously. There are diverse web hosting accounts differing from one host to another, furnishing different amounts of data storage and web traffic, different email mailbox account quotas and so on. The advantage is that you can buy an account that will offer the specs your web page indeed needs. You will not need to pay plenty of money for a plan you will not use, or wind up with a small account that cannot host the site. We, at Host my Work, offer a large assortment of shared web hosting plans appropriate for private or small business sites that even include pre-installed script-driven systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it simpler. If you start with a low-price plan and you demand more system resources, moving to a more advanced plan demands only a mouse click.

Shared Hosting - Disadvantages

A weakness of the shared web hosting solution is that the servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot activate additional software programs. Specific websites, above all online stores, require software applications to be activated on the web server for them to perform, and with a shared web hosting package, you can activate solely software programs that do not request full server root access.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers

For websites that demand full root access, or if your web portal has many thousands or even millions of daily visitors, what you demand is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated server web hosting. A private virtual server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated machine and it performs in strictly the same way.

Private Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both platforms normally offer complete server root access and can be rebooted via a software program by the client, autonomously from the web hosting supplier. Similar to the shared web hosting packages, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated server packages come with different features depending on what the web hosting vendor offers. A VPS web hosting package has guaranteed data storage space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can occasionally be enlarged for short spells of time provided that there are unused system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware configuration it is making use of, and it can be configured by changing or appending components. A virtual private hosting server is easier to run as it ships with a virtualization software platform, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install applications, monitor statistics, and so on. The administration of a dedicated hosting server is more complex, so such a solution would rather be utilized by proficient customers.

Dedicated Servers

Yet, certain hosting suppliers provide managed dedicated server web hosting services where they complete dedicated web server administration assignments on behalf of the client. This can be a part of plan or an extra feature.
