Quality Shared Hosting

There are various kinds of shared hosting plans appropriate for different web sites when it comes to the system resources or the shared hosting environment they require. To pick the most relevant shared hosting service for your web page, you need to estimate what server-side software it demands, how many daily hits you expect at the beginning and in the long run, as well as any other special demands that may need to be answered.

Shared web hosting - Assets

The most proper option for small sized web pages with a few hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting account. With this type of webspace hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which lowers the total price per customer substantially. There are various web hosting accounts differing from one company to another, offering different amounts of server storage space and web traffic, different mail quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can order a package that will offer the specs your web site actually demands. You will not have to pay a lot of money for an account you will not use, or wind up with a small scale account that cannot shelter the web site. We, at WANTOK Web Hosting, offer a vast collection of shared hosting solutions appropriate for personal or small business websites that even provide pre-activated script-powered systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it easier. If you start with a low grade account and you demand more features, upgrading to a more powerful package requires only a click.

Shared Website Hosting - Inconveniences

A disadvantage of the shared web hosting solution is that the web servers have some software programs installed on them and you cannot install additional software applications. Given online portals, especially web shops, request software applications to be activated on the server for them to run, and with a shared hosting platform, you can activate only software that does not demand full server root access.

Virtual Web Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For websites that need full server root access, or if your web page has many 1000's or even millions of viewers per day, what you demand is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A VPS is a virtual simulation of a dedicated machine and it acts in absolutely the same way.

Virtual Web Servers

Both environments generally offer full server root access and can be rebooted through a software program by the client, autonomously from the web hosting provider. Like the shared website hosting plans, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server packages sport different functionalities based on what the hosting supplier has to offer. A Virtual Private Server account contains guaranteed web space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can at times be increased for brief spells of time in case there are spare system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web server, the only limitation is the hardware configuration it is availing of, and it can be configured by altering or adding components. A private virtual web server is simpler to administer as it ships with a virtualization panel, which can be used to reboot it, to install software applications, check statistics, etc. The administration of a dedicated web hosting server is more elaborate, so such a package would rather be used by proficient clients.

Dedicated Hosting Servers

Nevertheless, certain web hosting firms offer managed dedicated web server hosting services where they perform hosting server administration operations instead of the customer. This can be a part of plan or an extra option.
