Top Shared Hosting

There are different types of shared hosting accounts suitable for different web portals in relation to the resources or the shared hosting platform they demand. To pick the most adequate shared hosting service for your web site, you must judge what server-side software it requires, how many hits per day you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other specific demands that may need to be satisfied.

Shared Website Hosting - Positive Aspects

The most adequate choice for small size web sites with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting package. With this form of webspace hosting, each customer pays only for their account, which reduces the overall cost per client considerably. There are various web hosting packages differing from one hosting supplier to another, providing different amounts of disk space and traffic, different mailbox account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can get a package that will offer the features your web site indeed needs. You will not need to pay lots of money for a plan you will not avail of, or end up with a small size package that cannot shelter the web site. We, at Techtrum Technologies, offer a huge array of shared hosting solutions appropriate for personal or small business web sites that even come with pre-activated script-based systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render things simpler. If you start with a low grade package and you require more features, moving to a more advanced account involves just a click.

Shared Web Hosting - Drawbacks

A disadvantage of the shared website hosting environment is that the web hosting servers have some software programs installed on them and you cannot activate new software programs. Some online portals, above all web storefronts, need software applications to be available on the hosting server for them to run, and with a shared website hosting plan, you can activate only software that does not request server root access.

VPS Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Servers

For sites that need complete root access, or if your site has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of daily viewers, what you require is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A VPS is a virtual imitation of a dedicated machine and it works in precisely the same manner.

Virtual Web Servers

Both solutions generally provide full server root privileges and can be rebooted through a software interface by the user, independently from the web hosting supplier. Like the shared web hosting accounts, the virtual private servers and the dedicated web hosting server accounts have diverse specifications based on what the hosting vendor offers. A virtual server package contains guaranteed data storage, RAM and CPU usage quotas that can at times be extended for brief periods of time in case there are available resources on the physical server. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware configuration it is making use of, and it can be configured by altering or appending components. A virtual server is simpler to run as it offers a virtualization tool, which can be used to reboot it, to install software applications, check statistics, and so on. The administration of a dedicated hosting server is more complicated, so such a package would rather be utilized by knowledgeable customers.

Dedicated Web Servers

Nevertheless, given hosting corporations provide managed dedicated web server hosting services where they implement dedicated server management assignments instead of the client. This can be a part of plan or an extra upgrade.
