Top Shared Hosting

There are different sorts of shared hosting solutions suitable for different web portals when it comes to the system resources or the shared hosting platform they need. To pick the most optimal shared hosting service for your online portal, you need to evaluate what server-side software programs it requires, how many daily hits you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special requirements that may have to be covered.

Shared website hosting - Upsides

The most adequate option for small scale web pages with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting package. With this form of website hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which decreases the total price per person radically. There are diverse web hosting solutions differing from one hosting corporation to another, providing different amounts of server storage space and bandwidth, different email account quotas and so on. The advantage is that you can get a package that will have the specs your web site indeed requires. You will not need to pay a lot of money for a package you will not use, or wind up with a small plan that cannot shelter the online portal. We, at Brandsnet, offer a huge collection of shared hosting solutions suitable for personal or small business web portals that even include pre-installed script-based platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you commence with a low-cost account and you require more resources, moving to a more powerful plan requires just a mouse click.

Shared website hosting - Inconveniences

A shortcoming of the shared web hosting solution is that the web servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot activate additional software platforms. Given online portals, above all web shops, require applications to be present on the web hosting server for them to function, and with a shared website hosting package, you can activate only software that does not need full server root access.

VPS Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For web portals that require complete root-level access, or if your web site has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of visits per day, what you require is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A Virtual Private Server is a software imitation of a dedicated web hosting server and it works in precisely the same way.

Private Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both services commonly provide root access and can be restarted through a software program by the customer, autonomously from the hosting provider. Much like the shared web hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server web hosting plans comprise different specs based on what the hosting vendor has to offer. A Virtual Private Server hosting account includes guaranteed hard disk space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can at times be increased for short spans of time on condition that there are free system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware configuration it is utilizing, and it can be configured by changing or adding components. A private virtual web server is easier to cope with as it arrives with a virtualization tool, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install applications, check stats, and so on. The administration of a dedicated server is more complex, so such a package would rather be resorted to by practiced users.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Yet, given web hosting suppliers offer managed dedicated hosting services where they carry out hosting server management operations on behalf of the client. This can be a part of plan or an additional upgrade.
