Quality Hosting

There are different varieties of hosting plans suitable for different web pages in relation to the resources or the hosting platform they demand. To pick the most optimal hosting service for your site, you must evaluate what server-side software it needs, how many daily visits you anticipate at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other specific needs that may need to be covered.

Shared web hosting - Advantages

The most adequate choice for small sites with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting solution. With this form of web space hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which diminishes the overall price per person considerably. There are various web hosting plans differing from one company to another, providing different amounts of server storage space and bandwidth, different mailbox account quotas and so on. The good point is that you can obtain a package that will provide the resources your online portal actually requires. You will not have to pay a lot of cash for a plan you will not make use of, or end up with a small sized package that cannot accommodate the web site. We, at Mindfox Hosting Solutions, offer an extensive choice of hosting packages appropriate for private or small business portals that even include pre-installed script-based platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you commence with a low grade account and you demand more resources, upgrading to a more feature-rich package takes only a click.

Shared website hosting - Weak Points

A disadvantage of the shared web hosting environment is that the servers have some software programs installed on them and you are unable to install additional software platforms. Given web portals, especially online storefronts, need applications to be available on the hosting server for them to work, and with a shared web hosting account, you can activate only software that does not demand root-level access.

Private Virtual Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For web sites that demand root-level access, or if your web site has many 1000's or even 1 000 000's of visits per day, what you demand is a VPS or a dedicated package. A virtual private hosting server is a software emulation of a dedicated server and it performs in strictly the same manner.

Virtual Private Hosting Servers

Both platforms typically include full server root access and can be rebooted through a software tool by the client, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Akin to the shared web hosting packages, the VPS and the dedicated web hosting accounts contain different functionalities depending on what the hosting supplier has to offer. A virtual web server account contains guaranteed data space, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can sometimes be enhanced for brief intervals of time provided that there are unused resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated server, the only limitation is the hardware architecture it is utilizing, and it can be upgraded by changing or adding components. A VPS server is simpler to tackle as it offers a virtualization software platform, which can be utilized to restart it, to install software applications, monitor statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated server is more intricate, so such a plan would rather be resorted to by trained customers.

Dedicated Servers

Yet, given hosting providers offer managed dedicated web server hosting solutions where they execute hosting server administration operations instead of the client. This can be included in the plan or an extra feature.
