Quality Shared Web Hosting

There are different types of shared web hosting plans appropriate for different sites in terms of the system resources or the shared web hosting environment they need. To pick the most suitable shared web hosting service for your site, you have to reckon what server-side software programs it demands, how many visits per day you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other special requirements that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared Hosting - Positive Points

The best choice for small scale web sites with a few hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this type of webspace hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which lowers the overall cost per user noticeably. There are diverse web hosting accounts varying from one hosting corporation to another, providing different amounts of hard disk storage and web traffic, different e-mail box account quotas and so on. The good point is that you can buy an account that will provide the specs your web site in fact needs. You will not have to pay lots of cash for an account you will not make use of, or end up with a small scale plan that cannot host the site. We, at Cheeta VPS, offer a huge selection of shared web hosting accounts appropriate for personal or small business websites that even include pre-installed script-driven platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it easier. If you start with a basic package and you demand more functionalities, moving to a better plan demands only a click of the mouse.

Shared web hosting - Negative Aspects

A shortcoming of the shared web hosting solution is that the hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to activate additional software applications. Some online portals, above all web stores, require applications to be present on the web hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared web hosting account, you can install only software that does not demand root-level access.

VPSs and Dedicated Servers

For online portals that demand full server root access, or if your website has many thousands or even millions of viewers per day, what you require is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated server web hosting. A virtual private web server is a software emulation of a dedicated server and it performs in exactly the same way.

Virtual Hosting Servers

Both solutions commonly offer root-level access and can be restarted through a software tool by the customer, independently from the web hosting company. Like the shared web hosting accounts, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated server web hosting plans involve diverse characteristics depending on what the web hosting supplier offers. A VPS hosting plan includes guaranteed server storage space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be enlarged for brief spans of time on condition that there are free system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated server, the only limiting factor is the hardware it is utilizing, and it can be upgraded by altering or adding components. A private virtual hosting server is simpler to manipulate as it offers a virtualization tool, which can be used to reboot it, to install software applications, examine statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated hosting server is more complex, so such a solution would rather be used by practiced customers.

Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

Yet, some web hosting providers offer managed dedicated server web hosting solutions where they perform dedicated web hosting server management procedures on behalf of the customer. This can be a part of package or an extra feature.

Prior To Selecting...

Selecting the top hosting package is crucial as it can influence the proper performance of a web portal. Prior to settling on a plan, compare the pros and cons, review completely all the prerequisites for the site to perform properly, especially if it is script-driven.
