Top Hosting

There are different types of hosting services appropriate for different web pages when it comes to the resources or the hosting platform they demand. To pick the most suitable hosting service for your web portal, you must reckon what server-side software applications it requires, how many daily hits you expect at the start and in the long run, as well as any other specific needs that may have to be covered.

Shared Website Hosting - Assets

The most relevant choice for small size online portals with a few hundred or a few thousand viewers is a shared hosting account. With this form of webspace hosting, each user pays only for their plan, which lowers the total cost per individual substantially. There are different web hosting accounts varying from one web hosting firm to another, supplying different quotas of hard disk storage and monthly traffic, different email mailbox account quotas and so on. The positive point is that you can purchase an account that will offer the specs your web page in fact requires. You will not have to pay plenty of cash for an account you will not make use of, or wind up with a small sized plan that cannot host the web portal. We, at -Iclick2- Web Hosting and Cloud Service, offer a huge choice of hosting plans suitable for private or small business web portals that even offer pre-activated script-based systems such as Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to render it simpler. If you start with a less powerful plan and you require more system resources, moving to a more feature-rich account requires just a click of the mouse.

Shared Hosting - Negative Aspects

A downside 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 applications. Specific websites, above all web storefronts, need software applications to be installed on the hosting server for them to function, and with a shared hosting account, you can install solely software that does not request full root-level access.

Virtual Private Web Servers and Dedicated Hosting Servers

For portals that need complete server root access, or if your online portal has many 1000's or even millions of daily viewers, what you need is a VPS or a dedicated server. A private virtual hosting server is a virtual simulation of a dedicated server and it runs in an exactly identical manner.

Virtual Servers

Both services usually come with root privileges and can be rebooted through a software program by the user, independently from the hosting supplier. Analogous to the shared web hosting packages, the VPS and the dedicated server accounts comprise diverse specifications depending on what the web hosting company offers. A VPS server web hosting account includes guaranteed server storage, random access memory and CPU usage quotas that can at times be boosted for short intervals of time provided that there are available system resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated hosting server, the only limit is the hardware configuration it is availing of, and it can be revved up by altering or adding components. A VPS hosting server is easier to cope with as it includes a virtualization software platform, which can be utilized to restart it, to install software applications, check statistics, etc. The management of a dedicated server is more intricate, so such an account would rather be resorted to by knowledgeable clients.

Dedicated Servers

Nonetheless, some web hosts provide managed dedicated server hosting solutions where they implement web hosting server administration procedures on behalf of the customer. This can be included in the plan or an extra upgrade.

Choosing the top hosting plan is crucial as it can have an effect on the stable work of a web page.
