Best Shared Hosting

There are different varieties of shared hosting services suitable for different web portals with regard to the resources or the shared hosting platform they require. To choose the most proper shared hosting service for your online portal, you must estimate what server-side software it requires, how many daily visits you expect at the start and in the future, as well as any other special needs that may need to be fulfilled.

Shared Web Hosting - Perks

The most suitable option for small sized websites with several hundred or several thousand viewers is a shared hosting solution. With this type of website hosting, each customer pays only for their plan, which reduces the total price per client considerably. There are various web hosting solutions varying from one web hosting provider to another, supplying different quotas of hard disk space and monthly bandwidth, different email address account quotas and so on. The advantage is that you can order a plan that will have the resources your web portal in fact demands. You will not need to pay a lot of money for a plan you will not utilize, or wind up with a small scale package that cannot shelter the web page. We, at CBRG Digital Hosting, offer a great selection of shared hosting plans suitable for private or small business web portals that even include pre-installed script-powered platforms like Joomla, Mambo, Drupal or WordPress - to make things simpler. If you begin with a basic account and you demand more resources, moving to a better account takes just a mouse click.

Shared website hosting - Disadvantages

A disadvantage of the shared web hosting solution is that the web hosting servers have some software installed on them and you are unable to install new software platforms. Certain web portals, particularly web storefronts, need applications to be activated on the web server for them to function, and with a shared web hosting plan, you can activate only software programs that do not require complete root-level access.

VPSs and Dedicated Web Hosting Servers

For portals that demand complete root-level access, or if your web site has many thousands or even millions of viewers per day, what you require is a virtual private servers or a dedicated server. A VPS hosting server is a software simulation of a dedicated solution and it functions in a strictly identical manner.

VPS Hosting Servers

Both environments generally offer root-level access and can be restarted through a software program by the customer, autonomously from the hosting provider. Akin to the shared hosting packages, the virtual private servers and the dedicated server web hosting plans include diverse features depending on what the hosting supplier has to offer. A virtual web server hosting package contains guaranteed storage space, random access memory and CPU quotas that can occasionally be expanded for short intervals of time provided that there are free resources on the physical machine. With a dedicated web hosting server, the only limit is the hardware it is availing of, and it can be revamped by changing or appending components. A virtual hosting server is simpler to manage as it comprises a virtualization tool, which can be used to restart it, to install applications, check stats, and so on. The management of a dedicated hosting server is more complicated, so such an account would rather be utilized by qualified users.

Dedicated Servers

Still, some web hosting vendors provide managed dedicated web hosting solutions where they execute dedicated web hosting server management tasks on behalf of the client. This can be a part of plan or an extra option.
