Best Shared Hosting
There are various sorts of shared hosting packages suitable for different web sites with regard to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they require. To pick the most proper shared hosting service for your website, you must evaluate what server-side software programs it requires, how many visits per day you anticipate at the start and in the future, as well as any other special requirements that may need to be met.
Shared Web Hosting - Privileges
The best choice for small websites with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this type of web space hosting, each user pays only for their plan, which diminishes the overall price per individual significantly. There are various web hosting packages differing from one web hosting supplier to another, supplying different quotas of web storage space and bandwidth, different mail account quotas and so on. The good point is that you can buy a package that will have the features your web page really needs. You will not need to pay a lot for a plan you will not utilize, or wind up with a small scale plan that cannot shelter the site. We, at Melanesia Web Hosting, offer an immense choice of shared hosting accounts suitable for private or small business web portals that even provide pre-installed script-powered platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you kick off with a low priced package and you demand more functionalities, upgrading to a high-end plan takes just a click of the mouse.
Shared website hosting - Negative Points
A shortcoming of the shared web hosting platform is that the web hosting servers have some software installed on them and you are unable to activate new software programs. Certain web pages, especially online shops, request applications to be installed on the web server for them to operate, and with a shared hosting package, you can install only software that does not require root access.
Private Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Servers
For sites that demand full root access, or if your portal has many 1000's or even millions of daily hits, what you need is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual hosting server is a software simulation of a dedicated web hosting server and it functions in absolutely the same manner.
VPS Hosting Servers
Both services usually include root privileges and can be rebooted through a software interface by the client, independently from the hosting provider. Just like the shared website hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated web hosting server plans comprise diverse functionalities based on what the hosting company has to offer. A virtual hosting server plan includes guaranteed hard disk space, RAM and central processing unit usage quotas that can at times be boosted for short intervals of time if there are spare resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware equipment it is utilizing, and it can be upgraded by altering or appending components. A virtual web server is simpler to manipulate as it involves a virtualization console, which can be used to restart it, to install software applications, monitor stats, etc. The management of a dedicated web server is more elaborate, so such an account would rather be resorted to by trained clients.
Dedicated Web Hosting Servers
Nonetheless, certain hosting vendors offer managed dedicated web server hosting services where they execute web server management tasks on behalf of the client. This can be a part of plan or an extra feature.
