Best Shared Hosting

There are different varieties of shared hosting solutions suitable for different websites when it comes to the system resources or the shared hosting platform they require. To pick the most optimal shared hosting service for your web site, you must evaluate what server-side software programs it needs, how many daily hits you anticipate at the start and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may have to be answered.

Shared web hosting - Positive Points

The best choice for small sized websites with several hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting package. With this type of webspace hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which diminishes the total price per customer noticeably. There are various web hosting solutions differing from one hosting firm to another, providing different quotas of server storage and traffic, different email quotas and so on. The privilege is that you can get an account that will include the features your website in fact needs. You will not have to pay a lot for an account you will not make use of, or end up with a small plan that cannot host the web page. We, at Stable disks Hosting, offer a huge collection of shared hosting accounts appropriate for private or small business web sites that even provide pre-activated script-powered systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you begin with a less powerful package and you need more features, moving to a high-end package takes only a click of the mouse.

Shared Web Hosting - Weak Points

A negative side of the shared website hosting environment is that the hosting servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to activate new software. Specific web pages, mainly web stores, require applications to be present on the web hosting server for them to run, and with a shared web hosting account, you can install only software applications that do not require root-level access.

Virtual Private Hosting Servers and Dedicated Servers

For websites that require full root access, or if your site has many thousands or even 1 000 000's of daily visits, what you require is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A virtual web server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated server and it acts in an exactly identical way.

Private Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both solutions typically give full server root access and can be restarted through a software program by the client, autonomously from the hosting company. Just like the shared website hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated web server packages contain different specs depending on what the web hosting supplier offers. A virtual private web hosting server plan contains guaranteed hard disk space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can occasionally be expanded for short spans of time on condition that there are unused resources on the physical server. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware equipment it is availing of, and it can be upgraded by changing or adding components. A private virtual server is easier to administer as it involves virtualization software, which can be utilized to restart it, to install software applications, check statistics, and so on. The management of a dedicated web hosting server is more complicated, so such a solution would rather be utilized by tech-savvy clients.

Dedicated Web Servers

Nevertheless, given companies offer managed dedicated web hosting solutions where they run dedicated hosting server administration tasks on behalf of the client. This can be included in the plan or an additional service.
