Top Shared Hosting

There are different varieties of shared hosting services appropriate for different sites in relation to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they require. To select the most relevant shared hosting service for your web site, you have to judge what server-side software it needs, how many daily visits you anticipate at the start and in the future, as well as any other specific demands that may need to be met.

Shared web hosting - Benefits

The most adequate option for small scale websites with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting account. With this form of web site hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which decreases the total price per client markedly. There are various web hosting solutions differing from one host to another, offering different quotas of hard disk space and traffic, different email address account quotas and so on. The benefit is that you can purchase an account that will have the resources your website in fact needs. You will not need to pay lots of money for an account you will not use, or end up with a small size package that cannot accommodate the web site. We, at IEM SMART SOLUTION HOSTING, offer a big array of shared hosting solutions suitable for personal or small business sites that even offer pre-activated script-based systems like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it easier. If you kick off with a low-cost package and you demand more features, upgrading to a better account demands only a click.

Shared Web Hosting - Negative Sides

A negative aspect of the shared web hosting solution is that the servers have some software applications installed on them and you are unable to activate additional software. Certain web portals, chiefly online storefronts, require software applications to be installed on the web hosting server for them to operate, and with a shared web hosting plan, you can activate only software applications that do not request full root-level access.

VPS Web Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For websites that demand server root access, or if your web page has many 1000's or even millions of daily visits, what you demand is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A VPS is a virtual emulation of a dedicated web server and it functions in a precisely identical manner.

VPS Hosting Servers

Both solutions usually include full root privileges and can be restarted through a software program by the client, autonomously from the web hosting company. Similar to the shared web hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated hosting server accounts come with diverse specifications depending on what the web hosting company has to offer. A virtual web server account offers guaranteed hard disk storage space, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can at times be expanded for short spells of time provided that there are unused system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limit is the hardware architecture it is using, and it can be revamped by changing or appending components. A virtual private hosting server is simpler to manipulate as it comes with a virtualization console, which can be utilized to reboot it, to install applications, check statistics, and so on. The administration of a dedicated server is more complex, so such a package would rather be resorted to by trained customers.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Nonetheless, some web hosts provide managed dedicated server web hosting services where they run dedicated server management assignments on behalf of the customer. This can be included in the package or an additional option.

Prior To Deciding...

Picking the top hosting package is vital as it can have an effect on the stable functioning of a online portal. Prior to selecting an account, compare the pros and cons, investigate thoroughly all the requirements for the web site to run properly, particularly if it is script-driven.
