Best Shared Hosting

There are various sorts of shared hosting solutions suitable for different sites with regard to the system resources or the shared hosting platform they demand. To choose the best shared hosting service for your online portal, you have to calculate what server-side software applications it needs, how many daily visits you anticipate at the start and in the long run, as well as any other special needs that may have to be covered.

Shared web hosting - Pluses

The most proper choice for small web sites with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting plan. With this form of web site hosting, each client pays only for their account, which reduces the overall cost per user radically. There are various web hosting plans differing from one hosting provider to another, furnishing different quotas of server storage space and bandwidth, different mail account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can obtain an account that will include the specs your website in fact requires. You will not need to pay lots of money for a plan you will not avail of, or wind up with a small scale plan that cannot accommodate the site. We, at Innovative Technology Concepts, offer a big collection of shared hosting accounts suitable for private or small business sites that even come with pre-installed script-powered platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you begin with a low-cost plan and you demand more system resources, upgrading to a more powerful plan takes just a click of the mouse.

Shared web hosting - Negative Signs

A downside of the shared website hosting platform is that the servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot install new software programs. Certain web portals, particularly online storefronts, demand software applications to be present on the server for them to function, and with a shared web hosting environment, you can activate solely software applications that do not require root access.

VPS Web Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For web sites that need full server root access, or if your online portal has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of daily hits, what you need is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A VPS web server is a virtual emulation of a dedicated machine and it operates in precisely the same manner.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both platforms traditionally give root-level access and can be rebooted via a software platform by the user, independently from the hosting company. Like the shared website hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated hosting plans comprise different specs based on what the hosting company offers. A VPS web hosting account contains guaranteed disk storage, random access memory and CPU quotas that can sometimes be enlarged for brief spells of time if there are spare resources on the physical server. With a dedicated server, the only limit is the hardware configuration it is using, and it can be revved up by altering or adding components. A virtual private web hosting server is easier to handle as it comprises a virtualization panel, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, examine statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated server is more complicated, so such a plan would rather be resorted to by qualified clients.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

However, certain web hosting suppliers offer managed dedicated web hosting services where they complete dedicated server management assignments instead of the client. This can be a part of package or an additional upgrade.
