Best Web Hosting

There are various types of web hosting services suitable for different web sites when it comes to the resources or the web hosting environment they need. To choose the most optimal web hosting service for your website, you need to calculate what server-side software applications it needs, how many hits per day you anticipate at the start and in the future, as well as any other specific needs that may need to be covered.

Shared web hosting - Perks

The most optimal option for small scale web sites with a few 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 cost per person seriously. There are various web hosting plans varying from one provider to another, supplying different quotas of hard disk storage and monthly bandwidth, different email address account quotas and so on. The plus is that you can purchase an account that will include the features your web portal indeed requires. You will not need to pay a lot of cash for an account you will not utilize, or wind up with a small size account that cannot host the web portal. We, at Access Global Hosting, offer a great variety of web hosting solutions suitable for personal or small business pages that even provide pre-activated script-powered systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things easier. If you begin with a low-price package and you require more features, moving to a more feature-rich package takes only a mouse click.

Shared Website Hosting - Negative Points

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

Virtual Private Servers and Dedicated Servers

For portals that demand root access, or if your portal has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of visitors per day, what you require is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A Virtual Private Server is a virtual emulation of a dedicated web hosting server and it acts in precisely the same way.

VPS Web Hosting Servers

Both solutions commonly include full root-level access and can be rebooted via a software tool by the customer, independently from the web hosting supplier. Much like the shared web hosting plans, the VPS hosting and the dedicated web hosting packages comprise different characteristics depending on what the hosting provider offers. A private virtual server package has guaranteed hard disk storage, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can at times be extended for short periods of time in case there are available system resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware equipment it is availing of, and it can be revamped by changing or appending components. A VPS server is simpler to handle as it offers a virtualization platform, which can be used to reboot it, to install applications, explore stats, etc. The management of a dedicated web server is more complicated, so such a package would rather be utilized by qualified users.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Still, given web hosting firms offer managed dedicated web server hosting services where they implement web hosting server administration tasks instead of the client. This can be included in the package or an extra feature.

Before You Decide...

Opting for the top hosting plan is important as it can influence the stable performance of a online portal. Before choosing a package, compare the pros and cons, review thoroughly all the prerequisites for the online portal to operate properly, especially if it is script-powered.
