Best Web Hosting

There are different kinds of web hosting accounts suitable for different web sites in relation to the system resources or the web hosting environment they require. To pick the most adequate web hosting service for your website, you need to judge what server-side software it requires, how many daily hits you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other specific demands that may need to be satisfied.

Shared website hosting - Virtues

The best alternative for small sized web sites with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this type of site hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which decreases the overall cost per person drastically. There are different web hosting accounts varying from one web hosting vendor to another, delivering different quotas of web storage space and traffic, different email mailbox account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can get a package that will offer the resources your web page actually needs. You will not have to pay lots of cash for a package you will not make use of, or end up with a small sized plan that cannot accommodate the web portal. We, at Smart Purple Cloud, offer a large choice of web hosting solutions appropriate for personal or small business websites that even offer pre-installed script-based systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you start with a basic account and you need more features, moving to a more powerful package takes only a click.

Shared web hosting - Disadvantages

A shortcoming of the shared web hosting solution is that the web hosting servers have some software platforms installed on them and you cannot install additional software programs. Certain web pages, above all online stores, request software applications to be installed on the server for them to perform, and with a shared web hosting plan, you can install only software programs that do not require full root-level access.

VPS Hosting Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For portals that need full server root access, or if your portal has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of daily hits, what you require is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A virtual server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated machine and it works in an exactly identical manner.

VPSs

Both platforms traditionally offer full root-level access and can be rebooted via a software program by the customer, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Akin to the shared website hosting packages, the VPS hosting and the dedicated server web hosting packages comprise diverse features depending on what the hosting vendor offers. A private virtual server web hosting package offers guaranteed web storage space, random access memory and central processing unit usage quotas that can occasionally be enlarged for brief periods of time if there are free resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limiting factor is the hardware architecture it is making use of, and it can be revved up by changing or appending components. A virtual private web hosting server is easier to manipulate as it ships with virtualization software, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install software applications, examine statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated web hosting server is more complicated, so such a plan would rather be utilized by trained clients.

Dedicated Web Servers

Yet, certain companies offer managed dedicated web server hosting solutions where they complete dedicated web server administration assignments instead of the customer. This can be a part of package or an extra service.

Prior To Choosing...

Choosing the top hosting plan is essential as it can have an influence on the stable performance of a web site.
