Quality Shared Hosting

There are different varieties of shared hosting plans suitable for different web pages with regard to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they demand. To choose the most appropriate shared hosting service for your site, you need to reckon what server-side software applications it needs, how many daily visits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific needs that may have to be answered.

Shared website hosting - Positive Aspects

The best choice for small scale web sites with several hundred or a few thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this type of site hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which decreases the overall price per client radically. There are different web hosting packages differing from one web hosting provider to another, offering different amounts of disk space and web traffic, different mail address account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can order a package that will include the specifications your online portal actually requires. You will not have to pay plenty of money for an account you will not utilize, or wind up with a small account that cannot shelter the website. We, at Deploy Hosting, offer an enormous array of shared hosting solutions appropriate for private or small business web sites that even include pre-activated script-powered platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things simpler. If you commence with a low-end plan and you need more resources, upgrading to a more advanced plan involves only a mouse click.

Shared web hosting - Inconveniences

A drawback of the shared website hosting environment is that the hosting servers have some software installed on them and you are unable to install new software platforms. Specific web portals, mainly online storefronts, request applications to be activated on the server for them to perform, and with a shared web hosting package, you can activate solely software applications that do not demand root access.

Virtual Servers and Dedicated Servers

For websites that require server root access, or if your online portal has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of viewers per day, what you require is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A VPS hosting server is a virtual emulation of a dedicated machine and it behaves in precisely the same manner.

VPS Web Servers

Both platforms typically include root-level access and can be rebooted through a software program by the user, independently from the hosting company. Just like the shared website hosting plans, the VPS hosting and the dedicated server accounts come with different features depending on what the hosting provider has to offer. A VPS server hosting plan contains guaranteed hard disk storage space, RAM and central processing unit usage quotas that can occasionally be increased for brief intervals of time in case there are available resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated server, the only limiting factor is the hardware configuration it is using, and it can be revamped by changing or appending components. A virtual private web hosting server is easier to administer as it arrives with a virtualization tool, which can be utilized to restart it, to install software applications, monitor statistics, and so on. The management of a dedicated web server is more complex, so such a plan would rather be used by skilled customers.

Dedicated Web Servers

However, given hosting suppliers offer managed dedicated server web hosting services where they run dedicated web server administration assignments on behalf of the customer. This can be included in the plan or an extra service.
