Quality Web Hosting

There are various types of web hosting plans appropriate for different sites in regard to the resources or the web hosting environment they require. To select the best web hosting service for your online portal, you have to reckon what server-side software applications it requires, how many daily visits you anticipate at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific requirements that may need to be covered.

Shared web hosting - Positive Aspects

The most proper choice for small online portals with a few hundred or several thousand visitors is a shared hosting plan. With this form of webspace hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which lowers the overall cost per customer considerably. There are diverse web hosting packages varying from one hosting provider to another, supplying different quotas of hard disk storage and monthly bandwidth, different electronic mail account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can pay for an account that will have the specs your web portal actually requires. You will not need to pay a lot of cash for a plan you will not make use of, or end up with a small scale plan that cannot accommodate the web portal. We, at UNLI CLOUD, offer an immense assortment of web hosting solutions suitable for personal or small business web sites that even come with pre-installed script-based platforms such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you kick off with a low-cost plan and you demand more system resources, moving to a more powerful account takes only a mouse click.

Shared Web Hosting - Weaknesses

A downside of the shared web hosting solution is that the servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot install new software programs. Given web pages, particularly web shops, require software applications to be available on the server for them to function, and with a shared website hosting solution, you can activate only software that does not request full root access.

VPS Servers and Dedicated Servers

For web pages that need complete root-level access, or if your web site has many thousands or even millions of viewers per day, what you require is a VPS hosting or a dedicated hosting. A private virtual web server is a software emulation of a dedicated server and it performs in a precisely identical way.

Virtual Web Hosting Servers

Both services generally offer server root access and can be rebooted through a software interface by the user, autonomously from the web hosting company. Just like the shared website hosting accounts, the VPS hosting and the dedicated hosting server accounts include diverse features depending on what the hosting vendor has to offer. A virtual server web hosting account includes guaranteed disk storage, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be extended for short stretches of time in case there are free resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web server, the only limit is the hardware configuration it is utilizing, and it can be upgraded by changing or adding components. A private virtual server is simpler to tackle as it involves a virtualization panel, which can be used to reboot it, to install applications, examine stats, etc. The management of a dedicated hosting server is more elaborate, so such an account would rather be used by knowledgeable clients.

Dedicated Servers

Yet, certain web hosting vendors provide managed dedicated server web hosting solutions where they complete server management procedures on behalf of the customer. This can be a part of plan or an additional option.

Prior To Deciding...

Opting for the top hosting plan is essential as it can have an effect on the proper functioning of a web site.
