Quality Website Hosting

There are different varieties of website hosting plans suitable for different web pages with regard to the resources or the website hosting environment they demand. To pick the most appropriate website hosting service for your online portal, you have to reckon what server-side software it requires, how many daily hits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may need to be satisfied.

Shared Hosting - Dividends

The most relevant option for small web pages with a few hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting package. With this type of web space hosting, each client pays only for their plan, which decreases the overall cost per user substantially. There are various web hosting solutions differing from one hosting vendor to another, supplying different amounts of web space and monthly traffic, different email quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can obtain a plan that will offer the specs your online portal indeed requires. You will not need to pay a lot of money for a plan you will not utilize, or wind up with a small package that cannot accommodate the web portal. We, at Host Diversity, offer an immense assortment of website hosting plans appropriate for private or small business web pages that even come with pre-installed script-based systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it easier. If you kick off with a basic plan and you need more system resources, moving to a high-end account requires only a mouse click.

Shared Hosting - Negative Aspects

A negative aspect of the shared website hosting platform is that the hosting servers have some software installed on them and you are unable to install new software programs. Specific web portals, mainly online storefronts, demand software applications to be activated on the hosting server for them to work, and with a shared hosting solution, you can activate solely software applications that do not request root access.

VPS Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For websites that request full root access, or if your website has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of visitors per day, what you require is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated web hosting. A private virtual server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated server and it behaves in a precisely identical manner.

VPS Web Servers

Both services traditionally give complete root access and can be rebooted through a software tool by the user, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Akin to the shared website hosting accounts, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated hosting server packages include different specifications depending on what the hosting supplier has to offer. A VPS server hosting package offers guaranteed disk space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can occasionally be increased for short periods of time if there are free system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware configuration it is availing of, and it can be revved up by altering or appending components. A private virtual server is easier to manipulate as it offers a virtualization platform, which can be used to restart it, to install software applications, explore stats, etc. The administration of a dedicated server is more complicated, so such a solution would rather be used by skilled customers.

Dedicated Servers

Nonetheless, given web hosts provide managed dedicated hosting services where they run dedicated hosting server administration tasks instead of the client. This can be included in the package or an additional feature.
