Best Shared Hosting

There are different sorts of shared hosting solutions suitable for different web pages in terms of the system resources or the shared hosting environment they require. To pick the most proper shared hosting service for your online portal, you have to judge what server-side software it demands, how many daily visits you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may need to be answered.

Shared web hosting - Positive Sides

The best option for small sized sites with several hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this type of hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which diminishes the overall price per individual radically. There are different web hosting solutions differing from one hosting supplier to another, furnishing different amounts of server storage and monthly bandwidth, different email mailbox account quotas and so on. The good point is that you can purchase a plan that will offer the features your website in fact needs. You will not have to pay lots of cash for an account you will not utilize, or wind up with a small scale account that cannot shelter the site. We, at Mid Georgia Hosting, offer an extensive choice of shared hosting packages appropriate for personal or small business pages that even provide pre-installed script-powered systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you commence with a cheaper package and you require more system resources, moving to a more powerful account involves only a click of the mouse.

Shared Website Hosting - Negative Points

A negative aspect of the shared web hosting solution is that the web hosting servers have some software installed on them and you are unable to install new software applications. Certain online portals, chiefly web shops, demand applications to be activated on the server for them to operate, and with a shared website hosting environment, you can install solely software that does not require complete root-level access.

Private Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For online portals that need full server root access, or if your portal has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of viewers per day, what you need is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A private virtual server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated web hosting server and it runs in precisely the same way.

Virtual Servers

Both environments traditionally offer full server root privileges and can be restarted through a software interface by the client, independently from the hosting supplier. Akin to the shared website hosting packages, the virtual private servers and the dedicated hosting accounts sport different characteristics based on what the web hosting company offers. A private virtual web server hosting plan has guaranteed disk space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can at times be expanded for brief spans of time in case there are free system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware architecture it is making use of, and it can be revved up by changing or adding components. A VPS server is easier to tackle as it involves a virtualization tool, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install applications, check stats, etc. The administration of a dedicated web server is more complex, so such a plan would rather be used by proficient users.

Dedicated Web Servers

Nevertheless, given web hosting companies offer managed dedicated server web hosting solutions where they execute dedicated web hosting server management assignments on behalf of the customer. This can be a part of package or an extra option.
