Quality Hosting

There are various varieties of hosting solutions suitable for different websites in terms of the resources or the hosting environment they need. To choose the most adequate hosting service for your website, you have to evaluate what server-side software it needs, how many hits per day you expect at the beginning and in the future, as well as any other specific requirements that may have to be met.

Shared web hosting - Virtues

The most proper alternative for small websites with several hundred or a few thousand visitors is a shared hosting package. With this type of web site hosting, each user pays only for their account, which decreases the total price per person seriously. There are diverse web hosting accounts differing from one web hosting firm to another, offering different amounts of disk space and monthly traffic, different mail quotas and so on. The good point is that you can order a plan that will provide the specifications your online portal really demands. You will not have to pay a lot of money for an account you will not avail of, or wind up with a small package that cannot host the site. We, at Super Hosting, offer a great selection of hosting packages appropriate for private or small business web sites that even provide pre-activated script-driven platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things easier. If you commence with a low-end package and you require more features, moving to a more advanced plan requires only a click.

Shared web hosting - Downsides

A drawback of the shared web hosting solution is that the web servers have some software applications installed on them and you cannot activate new software platforms. Some sites, particularly online stores, request software applications to be activated on the server for them to perform, and with a shared web hosting plan, you can install only software that does not request root-level access.

VPS Hosting Servers and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For portals that need full root-level access, or if your site has many thousands or even millions of daily viewers, what you require is a VPS or a dedicated package. A VPS web server is a virtual imitation of a dedicated solution and it runs in an exactly identical manner.

Virtual Web Servers

Both platforms traditionally give complete server root access and can be restarted via a software program by the user, independently from the hosting supplier. Akin to the shared hosting accounts, the VPS and the dedicated server hosting plans comprise different specifications based on what the hosting vendor offers. A virtual private web server hosting account includes guaranteed disk storage space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can sometimes be boosted for brief spans of time on condition that there are spare resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limitation is the hardware architecture it is making use of, and it can be revved up by altering or appending components. A virtual web server is easier to tackle as it ships with a virtualization tool, which can be used to reboot it, to install applications, examine stats, and so on. The administration of a dedicated server is more intricate, so such a plan would rather be used by experienced users.

Dedicated Web Servers

However, certain web hosting vendors provide managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they perform dedicated server administration tasks instead of the customer. This can be included in the plan or an additional option.

Prior To Deciding...

Choosing the top hosting plan is important as it can affect the proper functioning of a site. Prior to settling on a package, compare the pros and cons, review carefully all the preconditions for the web portal to operate properly, particularly if it is script-driven.
