Top Shared Hosting

There are various kinds of shared hosting plans suitable for different sites in regard to the system resources or the shared hosting platform they need. To choose the most appropriate shared hosting service for your web portal, you need to calculate what server-side software it demands, how many hits per day you expect at the beginning and in the future, as well as any other special requirements that may have to be fulfilled.

Shared website hosting - Assets

The best option for small sized web portals with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting account. With this form of hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which reduces the total cost per customer drastically. There are diverse web hosting packages differing from one hosting company to another, delivering different amounts of data storage space and monthly bandwidth, different email box account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can buy a plan that will include the specifications your website actually needs. You will not have to pay plenty of cash for an account you will not make use of, or end up with a small sized package that cannot host the web portal. We, at Princesage Online Branding, offer a big collection of shared hosting accounts suitable for private or small business web sites that even provide pre-installed script-powered systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things simpler. If you kick off with a basic package and you need more features, upgrading to a more advanced plan involves just a click of the mouse.

Shared Web Hosting - Weak Sides

A drawback of the shared web hosting solution is that the web servers have some software installed on them and you are unable to activate additional software platforms. Certain web sites, especially web shops, require software applications to be installed on the web hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared website hosting plan, you can activate solely software platforms that do not require root access.

Virtual Private Web Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For sites that request complete root access, or if your online portal has many 1000's or even millions of visitors per day, what you demand is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A virtual web server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated web hosting server and it functions in exactly the same manner.

Private Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both solutions traditionally come with complete root-level access and can be rebooted through a software platform by the user, independently from the hosting supplier. Much like the shared web hosting accounts, the VPS hosting and the dedicated hosting server accounts involve different specifications based on what the web hosting supplier has to offer. A private virtual server hosting account contains guaranteed server storage, RAM and central processing unit usage quotas that can occasionally be boosted for short stretches of time on condition that there are unused resources on the physical server. With a dedicated server, the only limiting factor is the hardware configuration it is making use of, and it can be revamped by changing or adding components. A private virtual server is easier to administer as it includes virtualization software, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install software applications, check stats, and so on. The management of a dedicated web server is more complicated, so such a package would rather be resorted to by experienced users.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

However, certain web hosting corporations offer managed dedicated web server hosting solutions where they carry out server management procedures on behalf of the client. This can be a part of package or an extra option.
