Best Website Hosting

There are various varieties of website hosting plans suitable for different web pages in regard to the system resources or the website hosting platform they demand. To pick the most proper website hosting service for your website, you must estimate what server-side software programs it requires, how many hits per day you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific demands that may have to be covered.

Shared Website Hosting - Strong Sides

The best alternative for small web sites with a few hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this type of web site hosting, each client pays only for their plan, which minimizes the overall cost per individual significantly. There are various web hosting solutions varying from one web hosting company to another, furnishing different amounts of server storage and web traffic, different e-mail box account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can order an account that will include the specifications your site really requires. You will not have to pay plenty of cash for a package you will not utilize, or wind up with a small plan that cannot host the site. We, at VastGIG, offer a big choice of website hosting accounts appropriate for private or small business web sites that even provide pre-activated script-powered platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make it easier. If you begin with a low grade plan and you demand more features, moving to a more powerful account requires just a click.

Shared Web Hosting - Shortcomings

A downside of the shared website hosting environment is that the web servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to activate additional software. Certain online portals, particularly online stores, request applications to be installed on the hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared web hosting plan, you can activate only software that does not need complete server root access.

Virtual Private Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers

For sites that demand full server root access, or if your web site has many 1000's or even millions of viewers per day, what you require is a VPS web hosting or a dedicated web hosting. A private virtual server is a virtual emulation of a dedicated web server and it works in strictly the same manner.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both solutions traditionally come with root access and can be restarted through a software tool by the user, independently from the web hosting supplier. Similar to the shared web hosting accounts, the VPS web hosting and the dedicated server hosting plans have diverse specifications based on what the hosting supplier offers. A Virtual Private Server hosting plan has guaranteed hard disk storage, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be extended for short intervals of time provided that there are free resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware architecture it is making use of, and it can be configured by altering or adding components. A VPS hosting server is easier to administer as it ships with a virtualization software platform, which can be used to restart it, to install software applications, monitor stats, etc. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more complex, so such a plan would rather be utilized by trained customers.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Still, given hosting corporations offer managed dedicated hosting solutions where they execute hosting server administration tasks on behalf of the customer. This can be included in the plan or an extra option.
